Commands that cause the screen to scroll produce mostly black-on-black text, with the odd green, brown or blue character. But if I "cls" then (say) "dir", the first screen-worth is legible white-on-black. So it is a scrolling display that mangles the colour scheme. I ought to try again after configuring the RiscPC to start up in mode 31 or another old wimpmode, but any thoughts in the meantime welcome. Andrew
