CRT Unit
CheckSnow Variable
DECLARATION: VAR CheckSnow : Boolean;
PURPOSE: Enables/Disables snow checking when storing characters
directly into video memory.
DEFAULT: TRUE (when a color text mode is selected)
REMARKS: Unlike EGA or monochrome display, interference will result
on most CGAs if characters are directly stored in video
memory outside the horizontal retrace intervals.
When a color text mode is selected, CheckSnow is set to
TRUE and direct video memory writes will only occur during
horizontal retrace intervals.
NOTE: Has no effect when DirectVideo is set to FALSE
