+/*
+ *	include/linux/vt_buffer.h -- Access to VT screen buffer
+ *
+ *	(c) 1998 Martin Mares <mj@ucw.cz>
+ *
+ *	This is a set of macros and functions which are used in the
+ *	console driver and related code to access the screen buffer.
+ *	In most cases the console works with simple in-memory buffer,
+ *	but when handling hardware text mode consoles, we store
+ *	the foreground console directly in video memory.
