Re: vDosXy color modes



How can we change fonts in vDosXy?

The CONFIG.TXT bundled with the new vDosXy installers includes

Subdued IBM PC Green.

(You can view the color schemes here:

)

To experience the colors as they were intended, you'll need to load
the following text MoDe settings in SETTINGS.DFL, your PRiNter or
DSP file, or wherever you load these settings:

; Text modes
MD NM=7
MD BO=15
; For visual underlining in vDosXy:
MD UL=113
; For visual bold underlining in vDosXy:
MD BU=127
; For visual italics in vDosXy:
MD IT=30
; For visual bold italics in vDosXy (no known setting):
MD BI=11
MD RV=71
MD BR=127
MD SU=107
MD SD=27

Bear in mind that each monitor renders colors a little differently,
so you may need to tweak the values in CONFIG.TXT to see the colors
to best advantage.

If screen color is important to your working environment, by all
means create your own color schemes. You'll need a tool to help you
visualize RGB color values. One such is

away.
