NAME
vga_drawpixel - draw a pixel on the screen
SYNOPSIS
#include <vga.h> int vga_drawpixel(int x, int y);
DESCRIPTION
Read a pixels value from the screen. This function is very inefficient, you should consider doing direct screen access instead or use vga_drawscansegment(3) to handle more than one pixel. The color drawn is set with vga_setcolor(3) or vga_setrgbcolor(3) resp. The function always returns 0 (on which you should probably not really rely).

It is very likely that both are at least to some extent are due to Harm Hanemaayer <H.Hanemaayer@inter.nl.net>. Occasionally this might be wrong.
