|Could somebody please tell me what I need to do to make dviscr
|work under os/2? When I run it, it says "Fatal error 2520: graphics
|mode not supported" and terminates.


Not that's one I can answer!

Set an envronment variable:
SET DVISCR= /oa=14 /ocr=1 /s=4

or alternatively put the switches on the command line.

The /oa switch selects the screen--in this case VGA.  The /ocr is the
color of the ruler.  The /s switch is the default viewing size.

See the DVISCR.DOC file for other switches and options.
