- OVERVIEW:
-
- SVGATextCalc is a small perl 5 program used to calculate "Modelines"
- suitable for SVGATextMode. The program has some intelligence built in
- and will try to calculate a video mode as close as possible to the
- requested one.
-
- NOTES:
-
- 1) You need SVGATextMode installed
- 2) You will certainly need to use vgaset to make minor adjustments to
- the created modes. That's quite easy to do and will allow you to
- center the image on your monitor.
-
- INSTALLATION:
-
- Pretty easy:
-
- 1) mv SVGATextCalc /usr/local/bin
- 2) mv SVGATextCalc.1 /usr/local/man/man1
- 3) ln -s /usr/local/bin/SVGATextCalc /usr/local/bin/stc
-
- Use the paths that are adequate to your system. The above ones will
- fit nicely on most Linux systems, for instance. The step 3 will
- create a link, so that you can invoke the program using only "stc".
-
- ========
-
- I would like to know if people are using this program, and what they
- think of it. Comments, flames, etc to paganini@ism.com.br.
