The MP2500 BIOS provides identical functions, with the following
exceptions:
04H: replaced by a 'get cursor address' function, as the display
hardware does not support a lightpen.
0BH: not implemented.
10H, 11H and 12H: not implemented.
13H: only subfunction 00H.
While these functions are highly compatible, remember that the display
hardware is only capable of displaying two colours (black and white) and the
inverse video attribute. So, while you can use the 'colours' and attributes
that each screen mode supports, the visible result is constrained by the
hardware.
For example: If a pixel were written with the colour red, it would be
displayed as black, but its colour would be read (direct from screen memory
or via the appropriate function) as red.
