- This program simply displays all screen attributes with the
- values of the attribute bytes which produced them. It's handy
- when you have to write code to be run on multiple types of
- monitors, or when you simply need to know the attribute value
- your display hardware needs to produce 'bright cyan'.
-
-
- There are only three options:
-
- /b displays on both monitors (if present).
-
- /d displays the values in decimal (base 10).
-
- /o displays the values in octal (base 8).
-
- It displays in hex by default.
-
- An example of it's use would be figuring out the best value to
- use for dim and normal video on both a monochrome and an ega
- display. Running the program with the /b option (if both monitors are
- attached to the same machine) would show that a value of 07h for dim and
- 0fh for normal would work for both...
