INT 10 - VIDEO - WRITE STRING (AT and later,EGA)
AH = 13h
AL = write mode
bit 0: update cursor after writing
bit 1: string contains alternating characters and attributes
bits 2-7: reserved (0)
BH = page number
BL = attribute if string contains only characters
CX = number of characters in string
DH,DL = row,column at which to start writing
ES:BP -> string to write
Return: nothing
Notes: recognizes CR, LF, BS, and bell; for the ET4000 BIOS, scrolling,
backspace, and CR only take place in the active page
also available PC or XT with EGA or higher
HP 95LX only supports write mode 00h
IBM documents AL=10h,11h,20h,21h as "private" rather than "reserved"
with PhysTechSoft's PTS ROM-DOS the AL,BH,BL,DH, and DL values are
ignored on entry.
BUG: on the IBM VGA Adapter, any scrolling which may occur is performed on
the active page rather than the requested page
