Well, as you probably guessed, it's not supported by Borland, so strictly,
it's not BGI.  I think the author of SVGABG40 did a workaround to access
32Kb colors.  Also, consider the 24-bit color BGI in the same archive...

Naaahhh.... :)

About the my own software, I haven't much to brag about, yet...  I wrote
TWEAK, and I'm currently working on a couple of VGA/386 game engines.
Apart from that, I have a number of small utilities I mainly wrote
for my own enjoyment: NOMOUSE, which turns the mouse off when I don't
want it, FORCEX, which forces the VGA into mode X whenever mode 13h is 
initiated, FORCE800, which forces Windows into my own 800x600x16 mode 
(the one provided by my card was compressed horizontally), + a dozen
of other 200-byte COM-utils.

Oh, yeah, I almost forgot - I'm the brain behind Word for Windows,
Ultima Underworld and NetWare 386...  then again, maybe not. :-)

My problem is that I seldom feel like developing anything to the point
where it is releasable, except when I'm working for somebody else.
I'm satisfied when I get what I need for myself.

Any replies to this should be mailed to me, not posted to this group.
