(* Sample implementation of PCX.TPU for VGA 16-color files. You need to
have the Turbo .BGI files in the current directory, or change the
Initgraph path. Enter a filename (without extension) on the command line
or, if running under Turbo, in the Parameters box. *)

(* Because an extra display page is not always available in VGA modes,
we can't use SetVisualPage to hide the image while it is being written
to the screen and the colors are being altered. Instead we can get BIOS
to turn off the screen. This method has the added advantage of speeding
up the writing of the image to display memory. Note that the function is
not available on EGA cards. *)
