That said if you would like to improve upon VGAONOFF I would dare suggest the following changes:

1. Make sure the binaries archive contained also the example BAT files (currently only available in the sources archive).
2. Make an exit strategy for when a VGA card is not present (exit silently, return an errorlevel, send a CON message to the user, or a combination of these).
3. Just in case, VGA detection code seems quite easy by using INT 10H service 1A https://stanislavs.org/helppc/int_10-1a.html

Thanks again.

Thanks again! I've made those changes in version 0.2: https://github.com/dcoshea/vgaonoff/releases/tag/v0.2

Cool little utility. Nice work!
