  4.           Purpose:  Converts IBM text-graphics characters into
  5.                     ASCII characters that can be printed by non-
  6.                     graphics printers.
  7.  
  8.           Format:   PRSWAP

  10.           Remarks:  The IBM text-graphics characters (non-
  11.                     standard ASCII 176-223 and 254) programmers
  12.                     often use to make their screen displays look
  13.                     more attractive cannot be handled by many
  14.                     printers.  PRSWAP.COM is a memory-resident
  15.                     program that translates these characters into
  16.                     presentable-looking ASCII substitutes.
  17.  
  18.                     PRSWAP should be loaded only once until you
  19.                     power down or hit Ctrl-Alt-Del.  If you
  20.                     intend to use it regularly, the best place to
  21.                     put it is in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file.
