I wonder it for two reasons:
1st one:
when I used RED.COM the first line displays the name of the file
edited. This name is in grey while background of the line is in black.
There is a second program that , under ogtmode, change the greyscale of
the command line but I don't remenber the name of this program(it was
maybe the prg in a:\pcmcia try.)

2nd one:
One day I reseted my ogo by taking off the batteries and when I powered
on it, the screen was divided in 9 cases and each one was filled with a
greyscale. So there is at least 9 greyscales.
But we can think it is a software management but under DOS we cannot
think about software management.

What are the commands under DOS to change the colors?
