Colors for DOS programs

Some X servers support 256 colors, others only support 16. If your machine only supports 16 colors, DOS programs running in the SCO Merge window may produce unreadable screens or distorted colors. This does not occur if the SCO Merge window is zoomed to fill the whole screen.

If you encounter this problem, use Color to select the ``DOS Primary Colors'' palette.
