Looking for info on the #8514 #DOS 2D accelerated graphics API. I found this:
https://retronn.de/imports/systems/ibm/8514.TXT But a list of registers and constants is a bit abstract to grasp. I even tried searching for the command register, 9ae8h (or 0x9ae8, hoping to find some examples in C), but only found some OS-level drivers that seem too spread out without understanding their respective codebases or emulators/interpreters. Wish I could find a few clear examples of e.g. line-drawing to grasp and work from there. 😩
