    I'm trying to write to the VGA buffer and from what I've read it
looks like I have to use the _far* functions but I am a litte confused
by them.  forst of all I don't know which one to use because there are 3
or four of each poke and peek.  More importantly( I think) is that I
realy have no clue what a selector is which I have to specefy.  can
someone please explain this for me?

thanks
Bjorn Hansen
