I have been able to turn my screen around, i.e., to black-on-white,
by putting in my *.PRN file the following line
MD NM=120

Spacing here is important, I think.

Actually, I keep this line in a separate file (B-W.PRN ?), so that
I don't have to invoke it. The screen stays black-on-white even when
I shell out to DOS. To get the screen back to white-on-black I have
to invoke a *.PRN file without that line.

BTW, I have found that, by putting other lines in that file, e.g.,

MD UL=59

(don't take the '59' too seriously) I can get various color combinations
for the various "modes" of xyWrite. try it; you'll like it.
