C programming: graphvga.h for Linux ?

Xeratul · 10-26-2015, 05:08 PM

Hello,

I would like to compile this program on linux:

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <conio.h>
#include <graphvga.h>

void initvga(){
 union REGS reg;
  reg.h.ah=0;
  reg.h.al=19;
  int86(0x10, &reg, &reg);
}

void closevga(){
 union REGS reg;
  reg.h.ah=0;
  reg.h.al=3;
  int86(0x10, &reg, &reg);
}

int main(){ 
   initvga();
   getch();
   /// bla bla ...
   closevga();
}

Would you know where to find the graphvga.h on linux?
Or a very close clone?

thank you

There are only 2 hits in google for that and one of them is this thread.

FYI that code will need to be completely rewritten as it is DOS 16 bit, uses interrupts and is not even close to portable.

The well-known Borland C 4.0 is the software, having the lib graphvga.h, loadpcx.h,...

Install dosbox, and turboc/borlandc in it; it might work in that. Perhaps.
