- What is this?
- =============
-
- This is the official AA-lib for OS/2 - the great ascii-art library by
- Jan Hubicka & Kamil Toman. The official OS/2 driver is developed and maintained
- by Thomas A. K. Kjaer(takjaer@imv.aau.dk). AA-lib is compiled using emx/gcc
- version 0.9c+fix 02 and works on OS/2 Warp 3.x & 4.x - maybe on OS/2 2.x too,
- but I haven't tested that. It makes use of the old VIO, KBD & MOU api, but
- everything else is pure 32-bits code.
-
- AA-lib programs works in either fullscreen or windowed OS/2 sessions, and
- supports a wide range of resolutions.
-
- What resolutions is supported?

- 80 x N, where 7<=N<=50
