Use this command line: executor -bpp 2  or  executor -bpp 4
I think in later versions they plan to let you choose your colormode at 
the Left_Alternate+Shift+5 screen.

One question for everybody out there...
Why does Prince of Persia run perfectly in 2 or 16 colors but incorrectly 
in 256 colors?  What's the deal?  It displays on the screen fine, but the 
movement is confused.
