Q.
Command
Prompt color problem.
When I
open
command prompt (DOS)
it has the colors black background and grayish-white text, which is the default
color. But when I type the command 'start', it opens a new window with blue text
and green background.
I think it does this because I download the program
Replacer, which runs in DOS and makes the
screen those colors. I also think the Replacer program did something to the
system Path which modifies DOS to make it those colors when running a new
window.
A.
Give the following a try. Open the Replacer program and do the following.
1.
Right Click on the top edge of the window and select Properties.
2. Select the Color tab and chose your desired color and click "OK".
3. You then get the option of making the change to the shortcut permanent.
In small
programs like this one always check the options section of the program and you
will find that most questions like this one can be answered by making changes
there.
