<p>An approach to outputting 256-color character pixel data more quickly than conventional systems is provided. In this approach, a word of data encoding a color bit map for up to eight character pixels may be stored in a system buffer and then written to a video adapter. The video adapter is configured such that background and foreground color codes for multiple pixels may be simultaneously written into the planes of the display memory of the adapter. As a result, 256-color pixel data may be more quickly drawn on a video display than in conventional systems. <IMAGE></p> |
