David, this is a real 'C' related question, getting a little off-topic. :-)

[apologies for the sarcasm, but topics discussed in here have been anything
 but C programming of late and it's becoming very tedious]

# include 

 > type
 >     screen = array[1..2000] of word;

unsigned short far * screen_ptr;

 > var
 >    screen_ptr : ^screen;

 >    begin
 >         screen_ptr := ptr($b800,$0000);

    screen_ptr = MK_FP(0xb800,0);

(this assumes you're using a Borland compiler)


Cheers,
david
