Description: !ModeHist provides a 'mode history'. Its features: * Shows the 12 most recently used screenmodes in a window; you can switch to one of these modes with a single mouse click. * The window is opened after a click with Adjust on the icon of the Display Manager (or, if you don't have a RiscPC, the Palette Utility). This makes !ModeHist look like an integral part of the rest of the mode control. * A Shift-Adjust click on the Display Manager icon switches to the previous screenmode. * The history can be saved in a file. The file is read the next time !ModeHist starts up, so you can have a list of your preferred sceenmodes.
