;DROPSY TEXT effect for Nowhere Man's VCL - TASM will assemble as is using
;VCL recommended switches. When screen is thoroughly dropsie'd, that is all
;letters have fallen to a single line across the bottom of the monitor,
;the routine will exit to DOS and restore the command prompt. I excerpted
;quite a bit of this from some public domain video routines optimized for
;the accursed a86 assembler and reworked the whole magilla until TASM
;wouldn't choke when swallowing the source. It attempts to meet
;minimum requirements for VCL formatting. Heck, this is a nice routine
;to have at your fingertips; you gotta admit a CASCADE-virus-like effect
;is always something people wanna see. And it's commented up the
;kazoo, one of the features I like best about VCL code. Hope you find
;it useful. -URNST KOUCH
