- About Fastgraph
- ---------------
-
- Fastgraph is a programmer's graphics library. It is a collection of
- low-level functions that are designed to give the programmer complete
- control over a DOS-based IBM-compatible computer. Fastgraph is
- written in highly optimized assembly language, and is characterized
- by blindingly fast speed. Here are some of the features of Fastgraph:
-
- -- Support for Microsoft C, Turbo C and C++, Borland C++, QuickC,
- Power C, Microsoft FORTRAN, Turbo Pascal, QuickBASIC
- -- Small, Medium and Large memory models
- -- 22 different video modes, including VGA, extended VGA, EGA, MCGA,
- Hercules, Tandy, CGA and various text modes
- -- Automatic video mode detection

- Fastgraph/Light is a subset of Fastgraph. Fastgraph/Light is
- shareware. It does everything Fastgraph does, excluding functions
- requiring real numbers, such as the world space coordinate system,
- and the variable-sized character font. Fastgraph/Light requires a
- runtime module FGDRIVER.EXE which is loaded as a TSR. The
- professional version of Fastgraph is a linked-library requiring no
- external drivers.
-
- Fastgraph has been used in the following shareware and commercial
- programs: Scramble, the Las Vegas EGA Casino, MicroBucks II,
- MicroBucks III, Video Poker a la Carte, Big Bertha, Klondike, Keno,
- Test Drive III, Day of the Viper, Gunboat, Steel Thunder, Once Upon a
- Time volumes I, II, and III, Puppet Playhouse, BattleCruiser 3000 AD,
- Eye of Horus, Las Vegas Bingo Club, Cyberwars, Jazz Magic, more.
