/* video.c - a few video subroutines to make writing C programs
             a bit simpler

        a line of code for printing something will look like this:

            at(2,20); in(RED,WHITE); cprintf("Just Like English!");

        Of course, you can omit the at() or in() (or both) if you like.

    NOTE: Remember that you must somehow force VIDEO.C to recompile
          whenever you switch memory models. This is because I haven't
          specifically declared all the routines and variables as 'far'
          (I hate using extra space and code unless I have to). If you
          like, you can do so yourself, then you can link the same OBJ
          with any memory model.

    To use the following routines in your own program, just put the
    files video.c and video.hin your working directory,
    add the line '#include "video.h" to the top of your program, call
    initvideo() at the beginning of main(), and link video.obj with
    your main module.

    This has been tested, and runs without modification, on both
    Zortech C++ 1.0? and Turbo C 1.5. I don't know about other compilers
    or versions, but I imagine they shouldn't need much modification.

    As usual: permission granted to use this for whatever you want to,
    commercial, private, obscene, or otherwise.
