vga_setlogicalwidth(3)	       Svgalib User Manual	  vga_setlogicalwidth(3)

NAME
     vga_setlogicalwidth - set the logical scanline width

SYNOPSIS
     #include <vga.h>

     void vga_setlogicalwidth(int l);

DESCRIPTION
     Set the logical scanline width to l bytes. It must be a multiple of 8. Only
     changes the VGA register, drawing functions don't take it into account. The
     logical  scan  line  width is the offset between points above each other in
     consecutive lines. Note that for some cards and graphics modes  a	multiple
     of  8 will not suffice to ensure a proper video timing. You should only set
     l to multiples of the value returned for that graphics  mode  by  vga_mode-
     info(3).
