I am currently creating special characters for text windows on a VGA screen.  I 
use an interupt call to write the character into video memory.  What I need to do 
is put back the original characters into video memory and the end of the program.
I have looked into useing some tools to do this but the problem is that all let you 
read the whole Video memory to a file then load it back later.  All I want to do is 
read one or two characters at a time.  Is there a way to do this.
Please send responces to  exurwmi@exu.ericsson.se

Thanks in advance.
