    When I checked out CONSULT.EXE on a Olivetti M24 with a Mono green
    screen, the "file card" popped up just fine but It did not show up
    any of the "help info" on the left hand side of the card. On a IBM
    clone with Hercules the "help info" appeared as underlined,  which
    usually means that the text on a colour sceen would be blue.

    When  I  got  the  programme on a PS/2 with VGA, CONSULT popped in
    BLUE and WHITE... this would  appear  not  to  be  a  good  colour
    combination for OLIVETTI M24 CGA with a green screen. Is there any
    way to patch the programme to produce a more suitable colours
