I'm totally astonished it was possible at all, doubly astonished it was so easy you could do it without realizing it, and triply astonished it did anything even close to "working" when you did do it.

That's less plausible to me; the colour Voyager framebuffer - when done "right" - is a cg6, not a cg3. Unless there's a second colour Voyager framebuffer...? Mine sure looks like a cg6 to software, including some cg6-specific code I have. /~\ The ASCII Mouse \ / Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML [email protected] / \ Email! 7D C8 61 52 5D E7 2D 39 4E F1 31 3E E8 B3 27 4B
