NAME

       gl_putboxpart - copy a partial pixmap to a rectangular area

SYNOPSIS

       #include <vgagl.h>

       void gl_putboxpart(int x, int y, int w, int h , int bw, int bh, void *dp , int xo, int yo);

DESCRIPTION

       Copy the contents of a memory buffer dp to a rectangular bitmap at position (x, y) with size (w, h).

       However, only a part of size (bw, bh) starting at offset (xo, yo) in the pixmap is copied.

       Pixmaps are in row-major order. The source pixmap memory has the size w * h * BYTESPERPIXEL.

NAME

       vga_flip - toggle between text and graphics mode

SYNOPSIS

       #include <vga.h>

       int vga_flip(void);

DESCRIPTION

       switches  between  graphics  and  text mode without destroying the screen contents. This makes it possible for your application to use both
       text and graphics output.

       However, This is an old vgalib function. You should really only use it for debugging as it runs extremely unstable because svgalib now does
       its  own  virtual  console  management. If you want to perform a similar action, save the current screen contents with ordinary memory copy
       operation to the frame buffer or gl_getbox(3), set vga_setmode(TEXT), then call vga_setmode(3) to return to graphics operation and  restore
       the screen contents with memory or gl_putbox(3).

       One could also use vga_drawscansegment(3) and vga_getscansegment(3) calls.

       However, avoid any calls to vga_flip() in your applications.

       The function always returns 0, a fact on which you shouldn't rely.

       It  might  be  useful if you are debugging one of your svgalib applications though.  If your program reaches a breakpoint while in graphics
       mode, you can switch to text mode with the gdb command

       print vga_flip()

       and later restore the graphics screen contents with the same command.  It is useful to define the following alias in gdb:

       define flip <Return> print vga_flip() <Return> end <Return>
