Hi,
#1.
What kind video card do you want to implement direct writes for ?
If it is VGA, what about all Hercules, EGA, CGA users ?
#2.
Maybe we can use some 386, 486, 586 or MMX specyfic opcodes inside
Open DOS. Executables will be smaller and faster but all machines
with less than (386...MMX) could be dropped into trash.
