Video Effects for Batch Files or fun
EGA/VGA/IBM8514
"Featured in COMPUTE magazine (jan 94)"
Looking around several different BBS's, I noticed that batch
file fanatics had no support for VGA/EGA graphics. Sure, there were
several screen generation, text mode programs, but no real, eye-popping
effects.
Since most people now own a EGA/VGA video (it has quickly become
the standard), why not use this in your batch files? After all, a
colorful text-mode menu is cute, but wouldn't it be REALLY cool if you
could clear off the screen with some VGA graphics?
Thus arrives VIDEO EFFECTS, a utility that allows you to:
■ Flash 33 brilliant VGA/EGA effects on the screen
■ Easily customize all the effects
■ Change between 25, 28, 33, 40 and 50 line text modes
■ Print messages or menus in VGA!
You MUST see these to believe!
