I wrote that Screenpeace was drawing using mostly black colors on my system which uses a 1024x768x256 board. Embarassingly, I shoulda RTFMed (or in this case, RTF .DOC file).

My old 256 color board did not do this, I think. I had completely forgotten about this feature, thanks for the reminder! The .DOC file says this is needed for 256 color mode, and even lists the spx files that won't work without it! >Also, SP doesn't remember that you set this option, and so you need to >reset it every time you run it. Actually, you don't need to "reset it every time you run it" because you can enable it in the WIN.INI file. The instructions on how to do this are in the .DOC file that comes with screenpeace.

Gee, it's been a while since I picked up .spx files off of cica, and I don't remember any acquarium spx. Where can I get this acquarium spx? ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nelson Bolyard nelson@sgi.COM {decwrl,sun}!sgi!whizzer!nelson Disclaimer: Views expressed herein do not represent the views of my employer. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------

why doesn't screen peace work on full-screen DOS mode? also, wouldn't it be nice if it can change the scheme every few minutes?
