Hello all,

  I've got a couple of small problems (using ye olde TCC 1.0 in an DOS
environment) :

"cputs" does not want to put anything on the screen when I switch to
graphics-mode.  Is this normal, and/or is there something I do not (yet)
know about it (that enables it for graphics-modi).

"gotoxy" works in graphics-modi (when used with "printf"), but with
restrictions : I can't get it to move to (text-)line 26 and up when in my
current 640x480 graphics modus (that has 30 text-lines)

And yes, I can write my own code that uses direct INT 10h calls, but I'd
rather use the right way, instead of applying work-arounds :-)

Regards,
  Rudy Wieser
