Because I still need all those troublesome 16 bit realmode utilities to operate. I am trying to find a good place to CATCH them so they will leave screen color and text up to the user. Dos realmode apps even in pc dos 2000 set the text and background, I like consistent user set color. Yes I can write to int 10h but another app will mess up the screen. I need a place where I can catch service calls and swap user defined values, why not dpmi ?
