------------------------------------------------
(C)Copyright A.Kogan, 1989-1991
General description
-------------------
ASCR is a resident program, which provides displaying of Russian
letters on your PC monitor. It works in any videomode on
EGA(VGA) and in graphics modes on CGA.
ASCR does NOT provide entering Russian characters from keyboard.
Any keyboard driver (such as KEYUSSR, RUSLAT and so on) may be
used with ASCR.
ASCR program accepts no parameters. If you adapter is
EGA-compatible or current videomode is graphics mode you will
get a message in Russian from ASCR just after it's starting.
ASCR must be started only once. It is recommended to place it to
AUTOEXEC.BAT file, if you are permanently working with Russian
letters.

Notes for advanced users.
1,2 or 3 Russian fonts became resident after program start. The
number of fonts depends on display adapter in that way:
1-font case: EGA-compatible card not found.
2-font case: EGA-compatible card found and VGA-compatible not
found and current font height is not 16 scanlines.
3-font case: VGA-compatible card found or current font height is
16 scanlines.
As a result, driver may have those parameters, depending the
case which take place:
1 font 2 fonts 3 fonts
------------------------------------------------------------
Font(s) height (scanlines) 8 8, 14 8,14,16
Resident part size 2K 6K 10K
Working videomodes 4-6 all all
------------------------------------------------------------
The conclusion is that if your adapter uses font of 16-lines
height and is not VGA-compatible, start ASCR when current
display font is of 16 scanlines.
