CRT Unit
DirectVideo Variable
DECLARATION: VAR DirectVideo : Boolean;
PURPOSE: Enables/Disables direct video memory writes
DEFAULT: TRUE
REMARKS: When enabled (TRUE), calls to Write and WriteLn on
files associated with the CRT will store characters
directly into the video memory. When disabled (FALSE),
calls to Write and WriteLn will be handled through BIOS
calls, which are much slower.
A call to TextMode will reset this to its default state.
