	I've used this package and can vouch that it works. There is some
	hassles with nonstandard Hercules clone cards (like mine, I never
	persuaded it to work), but under EGA & CGA it works like a dream.
	The code is good to base your own driver on, as I did here for
	various data display programs in the Dept. of Physiology. At the
	moment I'm engaged in writing a driver for a Data Translations ADC
	card so that I'll have some data to actually display.

	I had a prelimnary version which only worked with OR mode, so I
	added XOR mode to it as well, for crosshairs and the like. I expect
	he's got the full colour business working now in the hires 640*350
	16 colour mode. It's good stuff, give it a try.
