For instance, my word processor uses 50 lines, but other programs use only 25. I find that when programs switch back to the 25-line mode (even when just returing to DOS), the cursor is now halfway up the character instead of beneath it. While just a cosmetic error, it does prove to be annoying in some applications. I am running on a Commodore PC 40-III (286 machine), with an ATI VGA card in it. Please e-mail solutions to me. I will summarize if necessary. Andrew Beers ------------ v109qg7u@ubvms.cc.buffalo.edu beers@autarch.acsu.buffalo.edu SUNY at Buffalo Buffalo, NY
