While QB only allows you to change 3 color settings, there are more
like 20 some stored in the INI file.  This is true for most of the
Character Windows programs that I have checked, including:
QB 4.5 thru VBDOS 1.0, EDIT.com Quick C, Quick Asm and others.

Somewhere I have programs that allow me to change any of them.
To make things more interesting, each of those programs' INI files
have a different format.  I haven't looked at those programs in years.
