How can i translate this piece of code in Inline Assembler in DJGPP?
The code is in INTEL format and fills in the buffer (a video buffer)
with a color:

void Fill_Double_Buffer(int color)
{

  
   _asm {
	 mov cx, double_buffer_size  // size of buffer in WORDS
              mov al, color
              mov ah, al
              les di, double_buffer  <--- MY PROBLEM IS HERE!!!!
              rep stosw
             }
}



My try:

void Fill_Double_Buffer(unsigned char color)
{
    short selector = _dos_ds;
    short size = double_buffer_size;

    asm("
              pushw %%es
              movw %0, %%es              
              movw  %1, %%cx
              movb  %2,  %%al
              movb %%al, %%ah
              ???????????????   <------------ my big problem!
              rep stosw
              popw %%es"
              :
              : "g" (selector),  "g" (size), "g" (color)
              : "ax", "cx", "di"
       );
}


Thanks in advance
