Hi everybody..... 1. NANSI seems very fast, but I find it conflicts with DOSAID. Is there anything out there which does the equivalent of DOSAID (changes screen colors, prompt, etc)? Or is there a way to get these 2 programs to cooperate? 2. What is the current version of VMIX, and where is it? (Simtel?) Thanks a bunch! -- Adam Porter (porter@caip.rutgers.edu) C:\> alp

Norton Utilities' "sa" (screen attributes) program sets the text screen colors (background, text, border) using the ansi device driver. I have not tried it with nansi, but I would think that it would work. I am assuming that nansi is "yaac" (yet another ansi clone) :-) . -- John Joubert | /\ | /\ | _ Internet: pabres13@pc.usl.edu | \|<>|>|> \|<>|>|><`|`| GENIE: J.JOUBERT |--/|-------/|------------ | \/ \/

Now I use PC-Magazine's ANSI.COM with equally satisfactory results. -- Dr. Noel Roy bitnet: NOELROY@MUN Department of Economics internet: noelroy@kean.ucs.mun.ca Memorial University of Newfoundland cdnnet: noelroy@kean.mun.cdn St. John's, Newfoundland A1C 5S7 Canada
