    SPECIAL NOTE:  You can make any of these command line parameters into
    defaults by adding "auto,<command line parameters>" to the GDSUSER.CFG
    file.  See the GDSUSER.CFG file for more information.

 /C<n>  - Set number of bits in DAC chip (or 0 to use BIOS palette calls)

 /D<n>  - Set default dither mode (0=none, 1=50%%, 2=25%%/75%%; default=1)

 /L<n>  - Set default state of catalog label option

 /LAPTOP- Use on some laptops to avoid older modes.
            NOTE: This option is the same as using: /NOCGA /NOEGA /NOHERC

 /M<n>  - Maximum colors to use during color reduction (16-256; default=256)

 /N<str>- Set printf filename template for output files (default="GDS%%03d")

 /NOCGA - Ignore CGA modes (useful for laptops/notebooks).
 /NOEGA - Ignore EGA modes (useful for laptops/notebooks).
 /NOHERC- Ignore Hercules monochrome mode (useful for laptops/notebooks).
 /NOMONO- Ignore all monochrome modes (useful for people who like color).
 /NOVESA- Do NOT trust VESA for mode configuration information.

 /NOIDEA- Use just before calling technical support.

 /O<n>  - Set sort flag for slideshow (0=no sort, 1=sort files)

 /P<n>  - Automatically generate catalogs and write as GIF's

 /Q<x>_<y>_<name> Add logo to automatic catalogs (use with /P<n>)

 /R<n>  - Set default resolution 'Lock' mode (0=AutO, 1=LOck)

 /S     - Slideshow mode (no user interface, just automatic slideshow)

 /T<n>  - Set default text mode <n> from GDS.CFG file

 /U<n>  - Set default catalog border state (0=off, 1=on)

 /V<n>  - Set vertical orientation file display (0=horiz, 1=vert)

 /W<n>  - Automatically write catalogs GDS<n++>.GIF after first screen

 /X     - Exit to DOS after displaying image, but leave graphics mode up

 /Z<n>  - Set slideshow delay in 100ths of seconds: Default is 300 (3 seconds)

 /#<lpt#:> - Set filename of printer device (ie:  /#LPT2 ; default is /#PRN)
          NOTE: The printer must be configured correctly to avoid the annoying
          error messages.

 /=<bn> - Set default red/green/blue/contrast/brightness/color/sharpness
            /=R<n> - Default red level (+/- 255)
            /=G<n> - Default green level
            /=B<n> - Default blue level
            /=C<n> - Default contrast (+/- 255)
            /=+<n> - Default brightness (+/- 255)
            /=L<n> - Default color level (+/- 255)
            /=S<n> - Default 24 bit sharpening level (0-10+)
            /=H<n> - Default hue setting (0-255)

 /~A<n> - Use white backgrounds for catalogs.  Default is white (1).

 /~B<n> - Turn off automatic centering of slideshows. (Default=1).
            To turn off centering, use /~B0

 /~E<n> - Inhibit slideshow screen erase between similar images (FAST)

 /~F<n> - Enable color proximity elimination in color reduction process

 /~G<n> - Generate optimized grayscale palettes (G1, default=G0)

 /~J<n> - Print in COLOR.  HP PCL CMY process inkjet printers supported.

 /~K<n> - Replace 'TGA' file extensions with 'JPG' during array generation.
          This is a 'band-aid' until JPG support is finished.

 /~L<n> - Set initial length of dynamic file list cache size for GDS.  The
            maximum number of files GDS can handle is 2848.  The default for
            this option is 200.  You may save a very small amount of RAM by
            setting this number lower if you use GDS with fewer than 150 files
            at a time.  Setting this number to 50 will save 3450 bytes of RAM.
            As the file list grows, GDS may run out of memory, which will stop
            GDS from adding valid files to the file list.  This should not
            happen unless GDS is trying to deal with thousands of files. Paths
            are handled separately and there is no practical limit to the
            number of concurrent paths GDS can handle.

 /~O<n> - Set default file sort mode (0=name/1=size/2=bits/3=res/4=extn)

 /~R<n> - Force aspect ratio of all catalog files to 1:1

 /~Z<n> - Always try to write new files to startup path

 /<vid> - Set video chipset support (see GDS.CFG file for list of names)

 /512   - Assume video card has at least 512K

 /1M    - Assume video card has enough memory for any video mode

 @<file> - Read file list from text file: <file>  (ie:  GDS @file.lst )
