Unix gurus are easy to find in this area, but people with knowledge of DOS
are harder to come by.  I need to put small characters on the screen for a
graphic display.  Speed is of the utmost importance as it is for a run time
display.  Bit mapping in the graphics mode is just too slow.  If anyone
knows how to achieve close to DOS text output speed on user defined
characters from Microsoft C, I would greatly apreiciate your advice or
reference to a valuble text on the subject. 
A thousand thanks.
