                             Version 4.2  12-20-94


KALEIDS.EXE is the latest version of Kaleidoscope for DOS, and works with VGA,
EGA, CGA and MCGA.  KALEIDS uses the maximum resolution and color range of each
adapter (VGA: 640x480 262,144 colors, EGA: 640x350 64 colors).  You can clear
the screen, toggle background color and control display speed.  This version of
KALEIDS allows optional command line flags like this:

   KALEIDS <opt> <opt>

You can optionally enter in any order a B to use background color, and/or a
digit from 0-9 to set the speed.  Use of either of these options bypasses the
opening screen.  Otherwise, the opening screen will appear for a maximum of
10 seconds, or until a key is pressed.  Commands to pause and set background
color and speed appear in a menu on opening screen.
