David,

I did once use PSConfig, but lately I've noticed it has gone the dark
side of object graphics.  For people who (still) have 8-bit displays,
this can be an annoyance, when the color frenzy begins, and you've only
just tried to print.  Is there a replacement up to date version still
using direct graphics?
