- Hi there,
- I have just released the first version of the SuperVGA test
- kit library. This library contains full source code for the auto detection,
- bank switching and extended page flipping code used in the MGL. It also
- contains two test programs, one for 16 color modes and one for 256 color
- modes to test the routines.
-
- The MegaGraph Graphics Library (MGL) is a new high performance 2d graphics
- library that I will be releasing in the very near future (when full SuperVGA
- support is complete).
-
- You can ftp it from the following address:
-
- godzilla.cgl.rmit.oz.au (131.170.14.2)
-
- as the file:
-
- ~ftp/kjb/MGL/svgakt10.zip
-
- I will also be uploading the file to Simtel20 and garbo in the next few
- days.
-
- I would appreciate it if people could run the two demos programs on their
- system and let me know how it goes. If the demos play up on your system, or
- you have information about your particular video board that is in the library
- also let me know.
-
- I would appreciate it if people could fill in the following form and mail it
- back to me.
