Screen output
Synchronized screen access means that text is put on the
screen only during the overscan of vertical retrace. It is
useful only on old CGA cards to prevent "snow" effect.
Normally, the Commander automaticaly detects such cards.
[x] Zooming boxes
Checking this option causes dialog boxes and windows to
"open up" from the center. If you prefer otherwise, just
remove the check from this option.
Screen saver chars
This option allows you to change characters of screen saver.
It is useful if your character set have non-suitable symbols
to display star sky.
[ ] Left-handed mouse
Swaps the left and right mouse buttons, which is useful if
you have the mouse on the left side of your computer instead
of the right.
[ ] Fast mouse reset
On some computers (e.g. a PS/2 or COMPAQ with a mouse
connected to the built-in mouse port) there will be a delay
of several seconds before the Commander appears after you
run a DOS command. Check this option to reduce this delay.
