NAME
       mode3 - set a vesa mode.

SYNOPSIS
       mode3 [modenum]

DESCRIPTION
       The video card is set to vesa mode modenum (or 3 by default) using the
       (real mode) vesa bios calls.

BUGS
       Using this program is unsafe, and might (depending on the bios) result
       in a video card in a state that requires a hard reset to restore to
       normal, or even a hung computer.
