MODES.EXE - Mode scanner for graphics cards
-------------------------------------------
(Siehe MODES.DEU für deutsche Dokumentation)
MODES.EXE is just a little hack of mine to determine all available text
modes (on all PCs known to the author). "Available" means the graphics
card supports them; your monitor needn't.
Disclaimer:
-----------
Programs like MODES.EXE that manipulate the video controller (indirectly)
carry the inherent danger of blowing the monitor. I have tested MODES.EXE
on at least a dozen computers; all the monitors are still alive, and
they should, because I've taken great effort to avoid dangerous settings.
But I shall not be liable in any way for the life of your monitor if you
use MODES.EXE! If you don't trust the program, read your fine manual
instead. Switch off your monitor before you start the scan in MODES if
you like... I'd do that with IBM monitors, they really don't sound good
during the scan. :))
