Can any #retrocomputing nerd suggest a tool to dump every register on a #vga from #dos into a text file? Ideally also the state of the int10 interface.
Ideally I want to be able to sample the state of the VGA at different states of brokenness.
I have read the osdev wiki on the vga and I'm pretty confident I can write something myself, but I'd rather use something that is known to work so I'm not compounding the uncertainty in my debugging efforts.
Thanks! ♥️

Thoughts on making a game in CGA (usually 4 colours at 320x200 pixels):
* The magenta and cyan palette was ugly by 1990 but feels fresh in 2025. Colour combinations really do go in and out of fashion.
* It's a lot of fun making games for low resolution. A pleasant chunky feel and forces really considered UI choices.
* Good CGA art is hard. I think I did OK but lots of solid blocks of colour. A lot of the beauty of CGA is in dithering.
* I cheated on framerates
