Flash Graphics was the graphics package for DOSX. Unfortunately, the authors
of it have chosen to no longer make it available. There's nothing I can do
about it.

I don't know if i can use the vase bios support ... my last experiences with
DOS was nearly 10 years ago .... Is there everywhere in the Net a simple 2D
Graphics Lib which works fine wth digital mars ?

the only functionalities are :
- draw ellipse,
- set pixel,
- draw rectangle and so on.

The whole project was once written in WatCom 10 and Watcom 11 C++ ... that
means there a very lot function calls from the watcom graphcs lib ....
i want to warp the new call so that the project source have not to be
change.

Is it possible that the shipped OpenGL Lib runs under DOS ?


Thanks Bjoern

The VESA specifications http://www.vesa.org/standards_free.html has examples
to show you how to make calls to get the bank switching routine and hence
allow you to just write to the 0xa000 segment.  That will be the primitives
for set pixel.  The rest of the routines line DDA lines and ellipse etc can
be written using sources like:
