It has a VGA 640x380 card built into the motherboard. The computer can with 2 editors, one for 80x25 editing, and the other with something close to 128x52 editing using a tiny font. Now, is this small font software or is it in hardware. If it's hardware, it there a way to access this font from assembly/C ? If software, would I have to create my own font to get this enormous amount of characters on screen at one time? Is there software that can force DOS into this tiny font mode? Thanks in advance...
