ibm writing to screen memory graphics can anyone give me information or lead me to electronic information not books i m too poor regarding programming the standard graphics modes x x and x x are easy enough but i m not so sure about the rest something about planes or something and writing to ports and the like but i don t know the numbers or anything for the color modes i think if i m wrong let me know also x x is just one byte pixel that s easy enough but are there any other ways to write to the screen perhaps bytes at a time or something like that of course i d appreciate any information about any mode which reminds me of another question do the supervga modes work the same generally as the normal and color modes or is not only the mode numbers for various cards different but the methods for writing to the screen different as well thanks for any help you can give me i m developing a screen class for c and find myself searching for information oh i do have ralf brown s interrupt list which has given me tons of invaluable information already it just doesn t go into the screen programming details except for the read write pixel bios calls thanks again edward ball sigless knight eball calvin edu
