I had some spare blocks on this disk, so here a few goodies for you!!!!
There only small little programs, but they are worth sticking on your
CLI disk.
******************************************************************************
Command: CLS
Use : This command simply clears the text from the current console window.
You may have seen commands that do this before, but all the ones that
I have seen do it by sending a RESET to the console device. This also
has a tendancy to mess up all your settings such as colours, styles..
******************************************************************************
Command: COLOR
Syntax: COLOR ink[,paper]
Use : This command allows you to set the ink (& paper) colours of the text.
EG: COLOR 2 - will set the ink colour to Black.
COLOR 3,2 - will set the ink to Orange, and the Paper to Black.
******************************************************************************
Command: CURSOR
Syntax: CURSOR [on|off]
Use : This command will turn the CLI cursor On or Off. It isn't really much
use turning it off on your CLI, it makes life harder. But on the other
hand, it is handy for makeing your CLI menus look neater.
