I am planning to port an Amiga animation library to the PC.  I am looking for some
examples of how to access EGA and VGA cards directly (not through the bios) and
possibly some example routines to perform basic pixel operations (write pixel, 
write block, read pixel, lines, etc...).  I know good fast routines normally stay
with the author but though I would at least ask before starting into this project.
If anyone out there knows of routines like these available free (prefered), 
shareware, or commercially I would like to hear about them.  Also if there are
any good reference books on the topic please tell.

Thanks in advance.
