Radius SVGA MultiView Release 1.05
===================================

Overview
========

RADIUS.SYS is a combination of four device drivers:

    RAM BIOS     Copies ROM to RAM buffer for faster access
    VESA BIOS    VESA Committee's defined VGA BIOS extensions
    Pivot BIOS   This option offers portrait text mode capability when
                 the SVGA MultiView is attached to a Radius Pivoting Display.
                 However, some text mode applications and utilities are
                 not "Pivot friendly" and may not allow you to view a
                 full page of text. 
    ANSI.SYS     ANSI compatible terminal protocol - replaces the
                 ANSI.SYS supplied with all versions of MS-DOS.


RADIUS.COM is the DOS interface that allows a run-time modification to the
loaded RADIUS.SYS.

CLR.COM is a utility to clear the screen in any mode.  This is necessary
due to the DOS limitations of "hard-coded" 25 lines in several instances
(CLS, ANSI.SYS - for example).  Note: this limitation was corrected in
DOS 5.0 and is not needed when the /ANSI option is implemented.


Files Included
==============

    README.COM     Utility for viewing README.TXT
    README.TXT     This file
    RADIUS.SYS     Device driver file
    RADIUS.COM     DOS Utility to modify a loaded RADIUS.SYS
    CLR.COM        DOS Utility to clear the screen in any mode


Memory Considerations
=====================

RADIUS.SYS contains four selectable drivers.  The approximate memory
used for each selected driver is:

        Driver                   Size
        ------                   ----
        Overhead *               7.0K
        RAM BIOS                32.0K
        VESA BIOS                1.0K
        Pivoting Text Mode       9.5K
        ANSI.SYS                 2.5K
                                =====
        Total                   52.0K

* Note: Overhead is automatically installed if one or more of the above
are loaded.
