[Freedos-devel] GRAPHICS / MODE moved, help with help wanted!
Hi, after receiving the hono(u)r of becoming maintainer and author of the new official FreeDOS MODE, I have moved MODE and GRAPHICS (which I had forgotten to move before) from http://www.coli.uni-sb.de/~eric/stuff/soft/specials/ to http://www.coli.uni-sb.de/~eric/stuff/soft/ ... and I have renamed it from MODE-MODECON to MODE. The next problem is to create a proper LSM file and documentation for it. I am looking for VOLUNTEERS for that: The description of "Set the mode of your devices" is a bit short. As a reminder, the features are: - send ESC/P control codes for 80/132 cols and 6/8 lpi to printer - redirect printer to NUL or serial port - set serial port parameters - do codepage operations and display status of DISPLAY - select 40/80/132x25/28/43/50/60 screen mode or select x8/14/16 font, availability depending on your hardware. Shift CGA display sideways. - control and check switchar and keyboard (num/...) lock states - control keyboard repeat rate and delay I think the help file should just contain the MODE /? output and some explanation of each option. If you want to create a version history file: 4sep2003 initial version. 13dec2004 codepage support 02feb2004 keyboard lock support 19feb2004 vesa modes and printer redirection (and persistence) 21feb2004 cga shifting and codepage fixes. This is "as far as I remember". Find the updated parts of the GRAPHICS lsm below: Begin3 Title: Graphics Version:11jun2003 Entered-date: 2003-04-07 Description:Allow Prtscr to print graphics screens.
