FlickerFree 1.0

FlickerFree, from Steve Gibson, is a utility that greatly increases the speed at which an IBM PC or XT displays text on a CGA or Monochrome display adapter. It operates by overriding built-in BIOS routines with highly optimized screen writing code. It could vastly speed up many common applications at the time. It is notable as being an early commercial product from Steve Gibson of Gibson Research.
