The QuickBASIC Help, Index, COLOR statement, double click, shows that, for SCREEN 11-13, COLOR only allows the foreground color, thus:
COLOR foreground.
But, if we use this first
WIDTH 80,25 'or 30, or 43, or 60
we can then use
COLOR foreground, background
Furthermore, the foreground (or background) colors aren't limited to 0-7, but can be 0-31. How about that? This enables a blinking foreground.
I don't remember using or seeing this used before. Is this something new for most QBers here, or is this just old stuff?
