We are looking for a driver that will enable text display on both monochrome
and color displays (at the same time).  Our systems have both an EGA and
hercules card in them; presently we can display graphics on one and text on
the other, but have yet to discover a method of displaying the text screens
on both pages simultaneously.

Better yet would be display of both text and graphics, but I realize that
this is probably impossible without *massive* program re-writes (we want it
to work with off-the-shelf software).

Has anyone heard of such a beast?  We're willing to look at commercial
offerings for this one as well as the usual PD/Shareware things.

Reply to "ihnp4!ddsw1!karl", I will summarize responses to the net.
