[comp.sys.laptops] Grey Scale Managers

One more question, on a different subject. Recently, I purchased the game
"welltris". Since it uses lots of color, the only way I could use the game
effectivly was to set "Grey Scale Mode" to "On", and "Auto Grey Scale" to
"On". In this mode, the machine periodically adjusts the colors on the screen
to keep the best contrast it can with the 16 grey scales. The problem is when
I use a communications program like Procomm. In this case, I get a periodic
screen flash when the adjustment occurs. Is there a better way to adjust the
grey scales on the fly (I've tried using gsm, but didn't like it)? Is there a
way to periodically disable/enable the auto-grey-scale?
