There is a problem when upgrading to Procomm Plus Version 2.0 on the
AT&T PC6300.  According to the technical support person at Datastorm, the
6300 BIOS returns a value of 69 for the screen size when Procomm Plus
initializes.  To correct this problem, create a file called profile.asp
using a word processor that stores its files in ASCII mode.
Enter the following into the profile.asp file:

proc main
   mempoke 0 0x484 0x18
   set screen 25x80
   clear
endproc

Save the file, then start up Procomm Plus,  after the program initializes
and you are in the communications screen, press <ALT>-<F5>.  At the
filename prompt, enter profile.asp.  Procomm Plus will compile the .asp
file and convert it to a .asx file.  Each time Procomm starts up, it will
run profile.asx first, correcting the screen problem.
