TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Thanks to all those who replied with the information to put in the
win.ini file. Since testing this I have come across an interesting
problem. If the machines are set to 32K or 64K colours the links are
black even if I specify the 0 128 0 colour (that charming green) in the
win.ini. If the machine is set to 256 colours the default works as does
the commands. Has anyone else experienced this? Do I need to define the
links differently for different numbers of colours, or is this a problem
with the brand of machine we use? I certainly wouldn't trust their
display drivers, which is why I'm trying to find out if other people get
green if they run in 32K or 64K
Thanks
