Q. "Does Turbo Pascal run in Super VGA modes?"
A. Yes, if you have a VESA compatable video card you can use
 the VESA16.BGI file to get high resolutions such as 1024X768
 or 800X600. If you also want 256 color support, you should
 turn to a third party solution. There are some helpful
 files, including freeware drivers, available here on the
 forum.
Q. "How can I print my graphics code?"
A. Download the files labeled TI432.ZIP and TI433.ZIP from 
 the libraries. Additional support is available from third 
 party vendors. You could pose a question in the forum asking
 for recommendations regarding third party graphics support 
 for printing.
Q. "When will Borland upgrad the GRAPHICS TOOLBOX?"
A. The GRAPHICS TOOLBOX is no longer available from Borland in
 any form, and there are absolutely no plans to upgrade it.
 It should, however, recompile with recent versions of
 Pascal including Versions 6.0 and 7.0.
Q. "How can I use BGI calls in Windows?"
A. Windows is a graphical operating environment, so there is
 no longer any need for the BGI when programming Windows. You
 will find that Windows has built in support for graphics
 that is much superior to anything available in the BGI unit.
 To get started, try using using the manuals and on-line docs
 to read about the Windows GDI.
Q. "How can I add a mouse to my Graphics programs?"
A. Outside of Windows, Borland offers no built in support for
 the mouse in your programs. However, adding mouse support
 is extremely simply. Those who know ASSEMBLER can add mouse
 support with the INT33 interface, others will find MOUSE
 libraries available here in the CIS libraries.
