In order to use these resolutions in WordPerfect, use EGMODE
or EVGAMODE to set the desired text resolution, then run
WordPerfect. WordPerfect will automatically recognize the
screen dimensions and use that resolution. Note that WP
does not "like" the 100x75 resolution, and may only give you
25 lines. You can then flip back and forth between text
and graphics modes, and the text resolution will remain
correct.
To use one of the above graphics drivers with WordPerfect 5.0, copy the
.WPD file onto the diskette or hard disk directory where you keep WP.EXE
and WP.FIL. Then start WP, press the Setup key, select Display, and then
select Graphics Screen Type. The driver will be listed along with the
other available drivers in the menu.
