LCD or color changes to a color LCD or an
attached color monitor.
RPAL displays a small gray-shades
or color palette over part of your current screen when you
press a hot key (ALT plus an alphabet key you can assign).

Note: The RPAL pop-up menu is intended for use only with
text applications and has no effect on graphics applications
such as Microsoft Windows, Ventura Publisher
®
, and the
graph display within Lotus 1-2-3.
You can create custom palettes for each of your
applications and store the specific settings in a data file. If
you assign the custom palette file to the application using
the Laptop Manager Setup Menu, the computer loads the
custom palette when you select the application.
By adding
RPAL to your AUTOEXEC.BAT file, you can also
define the current palette when you turn on your computer.

Note: Some applications provide their own color setup
procedures. Some applications also take control of the
keyboard and do not recognize the
RPAL hot key.
RPAL does not display the palette when you run graphics
applications. However, you can adjust your colors or gray
shades at an
MS-DOS prompt before you load your graphics
application program.
