What you have got now is a very unfinished product made by Patrik Wallstrom.
It is supposed to be a VGA-library, but right now it only supports TextMode.
It is very good at that, but is is supposed to cover the whole range of VGA-
applications. It is, however, very good at managing lowlevel text mode stuff!
Sneak a peek att the examples I've made. If you already have done that, you
can see that I primarily made this stuff to make short intros and stuff like
that.
I just decided to release a preview on this library, so that I can get some
input from other people making this kind of things. Yes, I am a C-programmer.
:-) I have done this for C-programmers. I have seen a lot of programs written
for assembler and pascal programmers, but there isn't a lot of stuff for us
C-programmers. If you're an assembler programmer though, you can examine all
those low level routines, because they're full of inline assembler. I really
hate 80x86 assembler.
If you are lucky, you can make this stuff under other compilers than Borland
C/C++. I haven't tried it on any other compiler, because I don't have any
other... :-) I would love to have Watcom though...
I may release a new version in the future, with som possible documentation.
Right now you have to look in the include files, or even the source code to
find out what the routines does. If you do that, you find that the routines
are pretty straightforward. For further help, examine the source codes for
the example files. If you make your own little intro, or improves the
library files in any way, please send your little improvements to me, if you
want to...
If you want to complain at this stuff, you can feel free to contact me in any
