- Borland International and Bela Lubkin take no responsability for the
- consequences of using this program. It is provided as-is as a service to
- owners of the Hercules graphics card.
-
- The design of the Hercules Graphics card does not provide any way for
- software to determine whether it is currently in graphics mode. Because of
- this, after bringing SideKick up the screen is always left in the text mode.
-
- After running HERC.COM, typing ALT-left shift-G will turn Hercules Graphics
- mode on. ALT-left shift-T will turn it off (turn text mode on). After
- leaving SK, if the screen is left all garbled, type ALT-left shift-G to fix
- it!
- If G doesn't do the job, try ALT-ls-H, which turns on the Hercules card's
- second graphics page. AutoCAD uses this, as many other programs probably do.
-
- Version 1.1 will not load if it is already installed in your machine.
-
- HERC should be run before SideKick, so that SideKick can be killed by typing
- CTRL-Home CTRL-End from its main menu.
