- AUXIL is a device driver which creates a DOS character device AUX which
- is associated with a either the color or monochrome display in the system.
-
- It's main purpose is to act as output device for the debugging messages
- and stack backtraces of the Windows 3.0 debugging kernel. On input, it
- returns always 'I' and thus the system will not hang on the 'Abort, Break
- or Ignore ?' prompts.
-
- Redirecting AUX to the secondary monochrome card is useful with systems
- using a VGA and a Hercules compatible card while redirecting to the color
- display is useful with systems using a combination of VGA with 8514/A or
- (may work) TIGA cards (TIGA was not tested) and two color displays.
-
- Default is redirection to the mono display. When the /C option is given,
- AUXIL redirects to the color display. The number of lines on the VGA is
- read from the BIOS data area. This does only work if the VGA is the
- current primary video adapter.
