[comp.windows.ms] Color text windows

fargo@pawl.rpi.edu (Irwin M. Fargo) (11/08/89)

I have MS Windows/286 v2.1 running on my Zenith Z-248 (12 MHz AT compatible)
and have found an interesting quirk in MS Windows.

After mucking with PIFEDIT, I was eventually able to get ProComm to come up
in a Windows window, except for one problem: no color.

Can anyone tell me what I need to do to get ProComm to work with color in a
Windows text window?

(BTW, I told Windows that ProComm writes directly to memory.  I also tried
setting ProComm in BIOS mode and still no color).

   Thanks.
