    Cannot for the life of me remember how to get theDraw to draw blinking characters.

    HELP! ;)

    Thanks in advance!

    Well, if I am in thedraw and go to the color selection menu (ALT-A, I
    think), there are "solid" and "blinking" colors there normally. I have
    opened it before and, for some reason, the blinking row on that menu is
    not blinking like it should. It would have been when I opened it in a
    DOS emulator or a DOS window, but it normally does blink under dosemu or
    plain DOS.
