First off, codeview seems to have decided on it's own that I want black and white. It decided this on it's own, up until a couple of days ago it was in color. Going through the manual I see how to make codeview run black and white, but nada on making it run in color. Thank you, faceless worker bee in tech pubs. Second, I'm using ansi.sys calls to change the background of my screen display. When said background is anything but black I have a black border around my (beautiful) display. How can I get rid of this border, portability be damned? Gee, while I'm at it does anyone have C source for a routine to let the user change screen colors dynamically? My system is a True Blue IBM AT with ega, but I want the software to think I've got cga. Thanks.
