This is an UNSUPPORTED graphics interface for the EGA.  It provides virtual
EGA graphics environments on both the 286 and the 386.  For info, contact
Microport Tech Support.

PS.  UNSUPPORTED means that the interface may change w/o notice AND that it
may be dropped when another interface is developed (Like X).
