I'll bet this is an old prob, but I'm just getting around
to seeing it.  If I run GRDEMO.PAS, the TextPlay routine
prints all of the SCALED text at the same size.  But the
short demo that came in the GREXMPL.ARC file works fine.
I look at the code, and it looks the same to me.

Anyone know what this is?

Also, is there a way to get text on a graphic screen to
automatically erase the whole character block BEFORE writing
the character (so text-over-graphics would erase the graphics
part, instead of conflicting with it?)?

Thanks for any info!
