  13. I wrote a short program to send image files to the
  14. screen in real time for animation purposes.  It works great except
  15. there is some flickering of the image.  Perhaps not being synched with
  16. the natural refresh rate of the screen is causing the flickering.
  17. Is there a register I should poll for the event of screen refresh?
