[comp.lang.pascal] TP Changing Colors

kb36+@andrew.cmu.edu (Keith Douglas Beiter) (12/01/89)

	I am using Turbo Pascal 5.0, and I would like to know if anyone knows
how to change the default textmode colors.  As an example, redefining a
background color to be bright white or yellow, since normally you can't
have a textbackground of those colors.  I know there has to be some
memory locations containing the color palette in text mode, but I don't
them.  I know it can be done because Norton does it in his Norton
Control Center from Norton's Advanced Utilities 4.5.  I've also seen it
being done in programs like PC-Shell. 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
