Re: Graphic.h 2 win???

Well, if you're using include file <graphics.h> supplied with your DOS
compiler (I'm familiar with Borland C++ 1.0/3.1), chances are that it
is rather dated and just sucks. If you're making anything more than just
a simple example of graphics (like - err.. well, it does draw a line) then
you should switch to some other graphics routines, be it your own or
someone else's.

   Well, maybe it's too late but i hope not.. So maybe these will help:

1. HelpPC - cool PC tutorial, v 2.10 is last known. Dated 1991, all
 core stuff explained.

2. Denthor's VGA Programming tutorial

3. Seek for VGA graphics libraries i.e. on www.hornet.org

4. If you're into SVGA, read VESA Specification

   Well, if any of this is what you've mastered - well, sorry; I thought
it would be better to mention just in case the stuff that might help..
'cause time is precious.
