Using FASTACAD. BAT You need to run the FASTACAD.BAT file before you start your AutoDesk application. YOU can type FASTACAD and press before you run the application for the first time. You can also modify your AUTOEXEC.BAT file so that it automatically runs FASTACAD. For MS-DOS 3.2 or earlier, place the command "FASTACAD" as the last command in your AUTOEXEC.BAT file and make sure the directory containing FASTACAD is in your path. For later versions of MS-DOS, use the command "CALL FASTACAD" anywhere in the AUTOEXEC.BAT file. You can also place the commands within the FASTACAD file directly into your AUTOEXEC.BAT file or include them in a batch file which also starts your AutoDesk application. Configuring VGA Colors You can modify all your screen colors, including menu colors, text colors, dialog box colors, and drawing colors using the CustomColors utilities COLOR16.EXE and COLOR256.EXE. These utilities are on your Utility 1 diskette. CustomColors allows you to select the colors you want to display in your AutoDesk product using a simulated screen, complete with all possible objects. Note You must run DLDSETUP before you can configure your VGA colors. VGA Utilities 11
