As you have written it yourself and seem to be willing to share it for free, why not post the code here or at least some relevant snippets and describe your achievement to us? I would be fascinated to view your remarkable invention that, apparently, is both cross platform and independent of compiler. A truly extraordinary feat of brilliance. Bring on the code baby!
Then I might be pursuaded to post the code for my fabulous 10 times computer speed up app. that I completed in college. Something to do with typing deltree at the command prompt as I recall. Don't try this at home (er... or anywhere).
Thanks buddy..
However, this code which I ve written could be no big deal I guess, with excellent coders here.. Its just a memory resident code that I ve written using ROM-BIOS functions.
Well here's how i ve done it..
As we all know, the starting location for CGA in memory is 0xB8000000L and thatfor MA is 0xB0000000L. Every character that is stored starting at these location occupies 2 bytes, one represents the character and the second represents the attribute (color). What I am doing is that I catch the timer interrupt number 8.
Further as we all know, The timer interrupt occurs every 18.2 seconds.
So in my code, say if I wish to change the color ever 100 seconds, I would bring on an if loop and check the condition
if(ticks == 1820) // ticks is a variable;
{
*(vidmem+i) = color++; // there s going to be a for loop before this
ticks = 0;
}
here vidmem is a far pointer and assigned with the starting location of CGA or MA. EGA, SVGA are similar to CGA..
So thats it.. I am not sure, if thats a big deal...
