- The SuperVGA Test Library
- -------------------------
-
- Version 4.2
-
- 18 Sep 1993
-
-
- The SuperVGA Test Library is a set of routines for working with SuperVGA
- video cards that have a VESA VBE comliant Video BIOS. This library was
- an offshoot from the development of the Universal VESA VBE, which is an
- installable TSR to provide VESA VBE video BIOS extensions for most
- SuperVGA cards. It is intended to show how to program the SuperVGA
- cards through the VESA VBE and uses some of the more powerful features
- that the latest standard include in your own software. It was not
- designed with speed in mind, but more as an explanatory and exploratory
- tool.
-
- The Universal VESA VBE
- ----------------------
-
- This package also contains the source and executables for the Universal
- VESA VBE. This is a small TSR for providing the latest VESA BIOS extensions
- for most SuperVGA cards on the market. Please refer to the file
- 'univbe\univbe.doc' for more information. Also note that this archive
- has the Universal VESA VBE Implementors Guide, a guide detailing the
- internals of the Universal VESA VBE and how to modify or add support for
- new SuperVGA cards. This file is a Microsoft Word for Windows 2.0 file,
- so you will need this program to view or print the file (I believe you
- can also read the file with Word Perfect for Windows).
-
- Where to get the latest version
