                                 compatibility
    DTAG_NAME: (NameInfo)      - a user friendly way to refer to this mode.

INPUTS
    handle - displayinfo handle
    buf    - pointer to destination buffer
    size   - buffer size in bytes
    tagID  - data chunk type
    ID     - displayinfo identifier, optionally used if handle is NULL
