Hardware ports 3D0h through 3DFh (controlled by the IN and OUT instructions) can be used to control the graphics adapter. I need some sort of reference material that can at least hint at what these ports do. (I only need to work with standard EGA/VGA text-mode functions, not anything really fancy.) Please help me find some material like this, or let me know where I should ask. I have already figured out that search engines don't help much with this, and most everybody's code that I examined wasn't commented well enough to give me the clues I need. Any help will be greatly appreciated.
