NAME

       vga_getpixel - get a pixels value from the screen

SYNOPSIS

       #include <vga.h>

       int vga_getpixel(int x, int y);

DESCRIPTION

       Read  a  pixels  value  from  the  screen.  This  function is very inefficient, you should
       consider doing direct screen access instead or use vga_getscansegment(3)  to  handle  more
       than one pixel.
