Re: SETCFG command added to change config options on the fly



Hi,

I have now also added the SETCOLOR command to view or change vDosPlus color settings. As you know there is a COLORS directive in config.txt, but its parameters are long and complicated; on the other hand, this SETCOLOR command can change color setting one by one and on the fly from the DOS command line. Color # is between 0 and 15 and color value can be in either RGB (r,g,b) or hexadecimal #RRGGBB format. For example, the following two commands will change Color #0 and #7:

SETCOLOR 0 (20,30,40)
SETCOLOR 7 #607080

To view the color setting for Color #n, you can enter the "SETCOLOR n" command (n=0 to 15). Or you can simply enter "SETCOLOR" to view all current color settings.

Furthermore, the SETCFG command can now handle more directives including LINS, COLS, EURO and SCALE. For example, you can change the number of lines to 43 on the fly from the DOS command line:

SETCFG LINS=43

Hope these will be useful.

This is a great new feature. Thanks! (And thanks to Harry for thinking of it.)
