I am submitting to the Info-IBMPC library the program SMALL.ASM by Thomas V.
Hoffmann, published in the April 85 issue of PC Tech Journal dedicated to
the EGA. The program will give 43 lines per screen on the Enhanced Color
Display. It fixes some bugs in the EGA BIOS related to the displaying of
the cursor (the code included in the IBM Seminar Proceedings on the EGA
does not work). You can put it to use, for example, by patching WordStar to
work with 43 lines instead of 24 (or 25) on a standard color display. The
patch with DEBUG, for most versions of Wordstar (including 3.20 and 3.3),
looks like this:
A>DEBUG WS.COM
-F 248 L1 2A
-W
Writing 5xxx bytes
-Q
