   Oh yes, but like children you didn't give the whole answer to the   
   questioner:   
   that is how to write into screen ram. I know how it's done, but did you   
   give the questioner any clue how to write directly to ram, the start   
   Adress of the screen ram and its layout? if not (I don't bother to look   
   it up right now) you're the child...
