Here follows the mail that I directly got from the author of PC-More:


Oooops!!!!  Sorry 'bout that.  It seems that I designed (inadvertently) PC-More
to work only on monochrome systems, which is what I have.  If you don't mind
recompiling, the fix is easy.  Simply change every appearance of "crt_mode(7)"
with crt_mode(x), where x is:

	0	40 x 25 BW
	1	40 x 25 color
	2	80 x 25 bw
	3	80 x 25 color
	4	320x200 color
	5	320x200 bw
	6	640x200 bw
	7	80 x 25 monochrome card

Sorry for the problem, and thanks for the bug fix.  I'll probably repost the
binary with crt_mode(2) implemented for people with color monitors.
