HI;
Next dumb (?) question for discussion:
Some of my favorite HUG (Heath Users Group) software, 
	e.g., DT (Directory Tree), D (Directory lister), 
which use graphics(?) for displaing lines/boxes/etc., work great under
v2 of MS-DOS, HOWEVER, when run under v3 MS-DOS, they still work, BUT
the graphics are lousy..  Somewhat like running PC graphics under ZPC.

Since I spent the last two nights, off loading all software from HD, then
reloading software after re-PREP, etc to load v3 system & re partition HD
I'm disappointed in the displays of HUG programs.
Is there some cute trick to fix displays?
	device = \bin\altchar.sys in config.sys ?
	device = \bin\ansicon.dvd in cinfig.sys ?
	something along these lines???????????
(plz excuse typo's, its not me, its my keyboard)

Suggestions...?		HELP!
I'ld hate to redo everything to go back to v2 just to get nice displays.
DIck..
