Wow. When comparing all these version numbers, I really should increase next version of Derrick from 0.0.2 to 0.1 ... :lol:. Why? I think I deserve it, it's too low ==>

Results from MS Virtual PC:
typing mode03: exception 1, opcode 0, k-eip C00008AF, cs 8, stackvm86 FD20
instruction pointer: 92F
mode12, mode13: graphics corruption
Left SHIFT key does a very weird thing... it repeats the currently typed character from keyboard.
NUMLOCK isn't supported.
+ more bugs, like backspace doesn't erase the character etc.

Results from Bochs:
mode12: displays a weird rectangle on the screen (that's supposed to do?)
mode13: another crash

et cetera et cetera...

Results from real machine: not worth the try

Regards

Thanks, im busy tidying up the code at present so will look into things

i use qemu to test it and all works fine with none of the mentioned bugs.

only problem ive got is that when deleting text it does not remove it from the buffer.
