Hello all,

I am searching for a SMALL (ironically in big letters) graphics library.
The smaller the better, just a few graphics modes (at least 640x480x16
colors) and a putpixel... A Vesa library is nice, if it is SMALL, I
don't want to make a VESA library.

Or... (even better, and preferred)

a description on how to plot pixels directly to memory in VGA mode 0x12
(640x480x16color). The memory doesn't seem to be linear at 0xA000. I
just need the memory scheme so that I can properly plot pixels directly
to memory, the bios putpixel is wwwaaayyyy too slow, obviously. 

And please don't say use Allegro or some other huge library, keeping as
much garbage out is one of my primary goals, and Allegro has a lot of
extra garbage that I don't need (not garbage in that it isn't good, but
that it is excess that I do not need).

Thanks a lot.
