   I have a pretty peculiar question, some of you may find interesting.

   I'd like to circumvene the printf() function and use the BIOS-ROM-
   routines for direct screen control. (Forfeiting all compatibility,
   I know.) Okay?

   The method of choice is then to use interrupt x10, function (dec)19
   - write a string to screen. Still on the right track?

*** LOTS OF STUFF DELETED ***

Just use the conio functions, see conio.h.  These parallel the Borland C
functions of the same name and use BIOS or Hardware IO.
