Hi !
I am using Turbo Pascal programming. The editor uses 80x25 text mode, but I am mostly programming for mode13h (320x200 with 8bit color).
There is an option to switch to 80x43 (if card is ega) OR 80x50 (if card is vga).
My question: is it possible to "fool" the editor into thinking that the card is EGA, while in reality it is VGA.
Basically I want to to use 80x43 text mode editor (even if it simply uses 43 lines of 50 available) and mode13h for graphics.
Perhaps there is a TSR or something that would report EGA when Turbo Pascal asks it?
(I am using real-mode only, 8086 compatible, 1mb limit and also Dosbox)
Have such a thing been done, can you please provide it ?
Thanks in advance !
