from which you can select different categories. One of the important help
categories is function key usage. Pressing Esc exits Help and

The following Command Line Options are available when initially starting the diagnostic program from within its directory.

Type QAPLPRO/XXX (where /XXX represents one of the following from the list below) then press Enter.

Command Action
/B&W The /B&W command line option forces the program to load in
Black and White (Monochrome) mode, which is often more readable on laptop computers.
/LOG=file The /LOG=file command line option directs the
test programs to start using a specified Error Log file.
/INT10 The /INT10 command line option forces
the test programs to use the BIOS for screen writes.
/OXXX The /OXXX command line option, where XXX=test group (for
example, MBD/MEM/VID/HDU/FDU/KBD/COM/LPT, and
so on), omits the designated test group from testing.
/USRCONFIG = file The /USERCONFIG=file command line option tells
the test programs to look
for a user diagnostic configuration file other than the default USERDIAG.CFG.
/SCRIPT = file[,R] The /SCRIPT = file[,R] command line option with
the ,R runs the selected script. Please see 'Scripting' for a
description of scripting.


NOTE: You can use a - instead of a / as the command line switch.
