In djgpp, int=4 bytes=dword, short=2 bytes=word, char=1 byte=byte. If
sizeof(mymode)=X, adding Y to a mymode* pointer actually adds X*Y to the RAM
address which it contains, so that if the mymode* is pointing to one element
in a mymode[] array, adding Y to the pointer steps the pointer on by Y array
elements.
