[comp.sys.laptops] LTE display toggle by software

jmmaye@monsanto.com (Jim Mayer) (01/27/91)

	Does anyone know how to reverse the display on the COMPAQ LTE
by software.  I know you can do it with the ctrl-alt-[ and ctrl-alt-]
keystrokes but haven't been able to do it with a program or any of the
tools that come with the LTE.  I do not want to change it in the 
configuration; I just want to selectively change the screen for several
specific programs in the .bat file that starts them.  You can post or
reply to me at jmmaye@monsanto.com.  Thanks

	I thought some other people might be interested, so I'll post my
	reply.  I have a Grid laptop (for sale, BTW) that I've got running
	the Advanced Norton Utilities.  There's a little program in there 
	that does a very nice job of reversing the screen colors.  I 
	have it doing just what you want to do and it works well.
