Long Description:
MDMode is a collection of six video mode utilities. MDcheck one of the
six, is a video graphic display system diagnostic program. It checks
and tests the entire display system, and reports all information. Along
with the tests each mode is set and tested, so the screens detailing
available text and graphic modes are specific to your system. If you
own an SVGA system you may be suprised at the number of modes available.
I was unaware of some of them before starting this project. MDFix is
a handy utility that transparently resets the video defaults without
having to reboot. MDSet and MDRows are command line utilities used
to set available modes transparently. MDHi sets the highest available
standard graphic mode. Md43 is a VGA utility used to set mode 3 to
43 rows.
I wrote MDCheck in the spirit of the other five utilities, as opposed
to burdening it with a lot of frills. The result is a small, fast and
easy to operate program. I decided that it was unecessary to load this
type of program up with pop up menus, mouse support etc. Instead you
get a thorough check of your system in seconds.
