Looking for On demand screen blanker, i.e. via keyboard, not just by time delay. I know only of IM - Inner Mission. Other suggestions? Thanks

It's available in the pc/win3/util subdirectory, in the file fire54.zip. -- Jamie Gray -- Jamison Gray, jamison@Eng.Sun.COM "Football is a mistake.

I got it at msdos.archive.umich.edu . I like VGAMoire a lot. But what I would really like is a similar program that would restore my 40-line mode (VGA) screen properly. VGAMoire handles 50-line mode perfectly, but it restores 40-line mode with characters from another mode. This means that the bottoms of all the characters are cut off. Anyone know of a program that will restore 40-line characters properly? Marshall Abrams ab2r@midway.uchicago.edu
