bios cursor location

[DruG5t0r3]

Anyway to query the bios to find where the cursor is located on boot?

I'm trying to get it to print text without having to clear the screen basically.

[evincarofautumn]

int 0x10
ah = 3
bh = page number (default 0)

ret:
dh = row of cursor (from 0)
dl = column of cursor
ch = starting scan line of the cursor within the character block (0 is top line)
cl = ending scan line (max 7 for text or colour; 13 for mono)

p.s. In the future, please use google before asking questions such as these

Cheers.
