I am trying to build a BGI library for the various PCs in our group.
I have obtained a public domain driver for the Tseng chip set which
works for a Orchid Pro-Desinger card.
I am now looking fo a driver for the Trident chip set (for a Morse card).
Does anyone have such a driver ?
If not does anyone have the source for BGI driver fro another card ?
Is the point plotting routine the "kernel" for most drivers ?
If so if this was changed then would the driver would work for a different card?

Wouldn't life be easier if BGI drivers were included with the card
(along iwth Gem and 123 drivers) !!!

Thanks

Henry Bruce
