Can anyone exhibit for me a snippet of code that retrieves the current
video mode code number and one that sets an arbitrary video mode by number?

Nothing fancy needed here...no drivers or svga detection or anything. Just
intend to retrieve a video mode at the start of a program, then put it back
at the end of the program.
