Me again,  " The Problem Child. "

I an trying to learn how to do screen designs using Turbo C++
A friend has created a "World generation" program for the amiga
and we are converting it to run on an IBM Clone, with a SVGA monitor
So far we have converted everything except how to create the screens.

We aren't sure as to the procedures for initialising, and then setting
the screen modes (especially mode 13h.?).

Could some kind soul explain briefly what C implementations we need
and what order they need to be in. Also any examples (code) would
be V-much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
FOOEY..
