Somebody out there can tell-me how exactly dos_ds is defined and how it
works?

I took a look on the DJGPP sources but seems like dos_ds uses the fat DS
method,
is that correct?

And another thing, can somebody tell-me how exactly fat DS works, I
already understand what I need to do to use it, bu I don't understand
why do this make it work, and how to calculate a real memory pointer
using fat DS. What see in the mail-archives for screen access look
pretty strange for me.
