I suggest you look in these places:
1) Brennan's DJGPP pages: http://www.home.ml.org/brennan/djgpp/
if that doesn't work: http://www.rt66.com/~brennan/djgpp/
2) The DJGPP FAQ: Download it from the same place you got DJGPP, in the v2
directory, filename faq210b.zip. It has large sections on protected
mode access to video memory, writing interrupt handlers, calling
interrupts, etc.
3) Allegro: http://www.talula.demon.co.uk/allegro/
This is a game programming library for DJGPP; it has excellent
routines to perform many functions such as graphics, sound, input,
timing, animations, and much more. It comes as a full source
distribution and you can either use it as it stands, extract routines
from it, or just look at it to see how to do various things.
4) DJGPP homepage: http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/
Look at the documentation section, and also the software section
which has links to off-site software too.
: And if you have any questions that you

: I thank you in advance for any information.
Great (if you give the right answers ;) ).
