Where does the CGA medium- resolution graphics screen start in memory on
PC compatibles? I'll have a glorious time figuring out the mapping of
it for myself, but if you know that information also I'd appreciate it.


(I'm working on some high- performance graphics code to go around the
speed limitations of the getimage/ putimage functions provided with
Quick C. I expect having a copy of each image at each possible bit
shift position and strncpy'ing them into place should do nicely.)
