I just checked out the 4HELP replacement help program for 4DOS (from simtel20)
and it seems like a nicely put together program.  Unfortunately the
colours used for highlighting the selections all come out as normal text on a
mono screen, so it isn't really possible to run it.  The documentation says
the sceen colours can be patched in the binary, but I couldn't get what I
thought were the right attribute values to work (and anyway, I'm not a
binary patching kind or person).  
So, has anyone patched this to suitable values for a mono screen, and
would be willing to mail me the .exe ?

Thanks in advance,
