Documentation for ASMT Screen Blanker 1.0
Copyright 1987 All rights reserved
------------------------------------------------------------------
The AMST Screen Blanker blanks the screen of your computer after
5 minutes of no keyboard activity. There are actually two
programs in the set; ASB.COM, which is used for CGA/MDA monitors,
and ASBE.COM, which is used for EGA type monitors. Neither program
has been tested on VGA monitors or on all types of CGA, MDA, or
EGA monitors.
To use either program, type:
ASB
or ASBE
from the DOS prompt, or include the command in a batch file like
AUTOEXEC.BAT. The program will display an installation message.
After the screen blanks, any keypress will restore the screen.
However, the key you press will be passed on to the currently
running program, so it is suggested to use a non-action key, like
[alt] to restore the screen.
After the initial installation, you may temporarily disable the
program by entering:
ASB -
or ASBE -
Entering the original ASB or ASBE command again will re-enable the
screen blanker.
Neither program supports graphics modes, but you may disable the
programs before entering graphics mode programs. Also, some word
processing programs rudely capture keyboard interrupts, and are
not compatible with these screen blankers, so you should disable
the blanker before entering these programs.
