I need to know how to access the Dec Rainbow's
screen from machine language.  My machine is
the "A" version I think (cannot boot from
hard disk).  Questions are:

Is screen memory mapped?  What are addresses?

Can you send me a sample routine to transfer a
section of memory to the screen using the
8086 processor? 

If screen is not memory mapped, how do I send 
a character to the screen?  Do you know a 
CPM call?  

Thank you. Please send replies to:
