- ■ SETTING THE GRAPHICS DISPLAY
-
- If the program won't display graphics and prints the message
- "fg_init() failed" then you will have to set an environment
- variable to the name of your display type. To do this, before
- you run PEDRAW type the following line:
-
- SET FG_DISPLAY=xxxx
-
- except instead of xxxx type one of the following:
-
- HERC
- CGAHIRES
- EGAECD
- VGA11
- VGA12
- EGAMONO
- EGACOLOR
- TOSHIBA
- 8514A
-
- Which one you type depends on the kind of display you have which you
- will have to determine from reading your computer manual or by
- asking your supplier. So if you have a Hercules-compatible display
- you would type:
-
- SET FG_DISPLAY=HERC
-
- and if you had a CGA display you would type:
-
- SET FG_DISPLAY=CGAHIRES
-
- and so on. You may want to put this line in your AUTOEXEC.BAT
- file.
