DOS ain't dead

Number of rows and columns (Developers)

posted by Deniska  , 10.10.2008, 04:09

Does anybody know how one may determine the number of lines and columns for the text mode, which is currently set? I've taken a look at some of the functions of INT 10h, but unsuccessfully. I remember there was one function that returned either the number of lines or columns, but not both.

I'm writing a text-mode mixer for Sound Blaster compatible cards, since I'm not satisfied with the interfaces and capabilities of the existing mixers. I'd like to be able to identify the current screen dimensions and make the interface "stretch" appropriately instead of resetting the text mode.
