This program is from the Compute! magazine September 1987 page 82.
The program is a terminate-and-stay-resident program that runs silently in
the background, waiting for you to call it. When summoned, it lets you
quickly enter new foreground, background, and border colors.
note:
Be sure to load the ANSI.SYS driver in the config.sys file before attempting
color commands.
The program QUICKCHA.BAS is a program that can be modified by you in that
the ACTIVATION keys can be altered by replacing the value 46 in
line 30 with the number corresponding to your choice, then run the program
again to create a new copy of SETCOLOR.COM.
