Well - you've got a good point - an 8086 is probably *way* too slow
to run graphics programs of any merit. However, I would like to add
a screen driver for hercules. Is hercules only monochrome, or does
it support color? Do you know how the screen memory is accessed?
Do you think you could write the driver?

Send me the asm examples, I'l take a look. In particular,
examples in small model that read and write a pixel, and write a horz
and vertical line are all that's needed.
