- ABOUT FADE.EXE
-
- FADE.EXE is a program from the kit, PIECES, by Another
- Company. With PIECES, you can create just about anything for
- IBM-compatible computing. No programming skill is necessary.
- See end of this file for more information about PIECES.
-
- What It Does
-
- FADE will fade VGA and Super-VGA images to black.
-
- How To Use It
-
- Type FADE.EXE in a script after a picture has been presented
- and it will fade to black. The amount of time which the
- fade requires is adjustable. After FADE.EXE, type a space,
- then a number from 0 to 100. A small number will fade
- quickly, and a large number will fade slowly. Numbers larger
- than 40 tend to run a bit chunky. If you do not specify a
- number, than the default is 20. For example:
-
- FADE.EXE 10
-
- Will cause a slightly faster than normal fade.
-
- Additional Information
-
- FADE runs at nearly the same speed on all systems from the
- slowest XT-compatibles to the fastest '486s and Pentiums.
-
- After Fade has been run, the palettes are reset, so that you
- can display another picture normally.
-
- If you try to run FADE on Hercules, text, CGA or EGA images,
- nothing will happen.
