- This patch is only for those with non glitching color video cards, such as
- EGA, VGA, MCGA, and many CGA cards (besides IBM). It bypasses some extra
- code code for writing to the screen on old cards. It could be made even faster
- if procomm was changed to write whole strings at a time instead of single
- characters but such as change is beyond the scope of outside patches (mainly
- since procomm is written in Small model C code with Phoenix Plink for overlays
- which makes the flow of code rather hard to follow).
- Basicly each time procomm writes a character to the screen it goes through
- a pile of assembly code that is, well to put it nicely, not very efficient.
- Sooo..... with this patch you should see about a doubling of screen display,
- maybe more, maybe less, it certainly seems snapier.
