IBM PC C question

[Jim Ennis]

This is not a pure C question but I am hoping somebody can help me with
this question for a friend:

Subject:      IBM-PC screen size

Is is possible to reset the screen so that only a small window is
accessable to DOS? If so do we do this by setting something inside
DOS or do we have to program the video controller? ( we do not want
scrunched characters , just to restrain the number of vertical and
horizontal lines in on the screen )

We do not want to use TURBO Pascal's Window function, this information
will be used for C functions.

Also any information concerning programming the video controller
would be helpful.

        Thanks for the help,
