                         Specifies that the Editor should attempt to
                         automatically adapt to whatever the current
                         screen size is when it is are started. This
                         also means that the Editor will not attempt
                         to reset the screen mode when it is
                         terminated.

                         values to send to the INT 10h (Video BIOS) to
                         set and reset the screen.

                         This is not available in the noncommercial
                         version.

             Colors      Allows you to choose between the default
                         monochrome (black and white) and the default
                         color sets. You can also choose to customize
                         the colors to suit your own needs.

             Xlat.In and Xlat.Out
                         Defines the translation tables to use
                         wherever the translation table status bit is
                         active. This is used to translate language
                         specific 8-bit ASCII characters to 7-bit
                         ASCII when writing messages to disk and vice
                         versa when reading messages from disk.

                         The In table is used when reading messages
                         from disk and the Out table is used when
                         writing messages to disk.

                         FDSETUP program automatically creates
                         reasonable defaults for most countries when
                         it creates a new SETUP.FD (system) file. If
                         you are located in an English speaking
                         country, you do normally not have to worry
                         about translation tables.

             Swapping    Determines whether or not you want the Editor
                         to use swapping for its DOS shell. You can
                         disable the use of XMS/EMS memory for the
                         swap function. The swap function is explained
                         in a separate section.
