GUITAR TEACHER checks your computer's display adapter and automatically sets
up the program for either a monochrome or color display.  However, some
adapters cause GUITAR TEACHER to display in color mode when in fact a
monochrome monitor is present.  This occurs most often with laptop Liquid
Crystal Displays.  If your screen seems to be displaying GUITAR TEACHER or the
printing utility improperly, run either program with a "/m" to force a
monochrome display.  Type: gt/m
