Unfortunatly I do not have answer for your question. SO how can I help and why have I replied? Well I think a good person for you to ask and answer your question and/or provide direction for you is probably John English himself. John English taught me C++ last year at Uni and I am sure he would be happy to help- Especialy as you have purchased a copy of his book! Here is his E-mail address J.English@brighton.ac.uk Hope this helps Jonathan Hough William E. Huttemann Jr. wrote: > Does anyone know how to implement VGA graphics in ADA?
