Having finally upgraded my Hercules based SCO Unix V/386 3.2 system to
a more respectable NEC Multisync 2A & a Paradise VGA 1024 Card with 512K,
I have 2 distinct questions.

1)	How can I get the adaptor into a 132 column mode?
	What ioctl calls need to be made, or some other method?

2)	Is there any examples of curses based windowing software which
	utilizes the colors and abilities available in this set-up?
	Specifically I am looking for librarys/packages/collections of
	'C' source based on curses which does things like:
		pop-up windows, menu selections, etc using colors and the
		other advantages of my new system.
	They should be public domain, or shareware, and available in 
	source format, for use under the above mentioned O.S. & hardware
	configuration.

Thanks in advance for any pointers or code or info you can send my way.
