                7/15/1999   Karl Groethe    Updated for Metrowerks Codewarror Pro 2.1
                5/31/95     ewa             Added RVGetCurrentVideoSetting and RVConfirmVideoRequest routines
                                            to make it easy to revert back to where you came from and to give
                                            the user a chance to confirm the new setting if the new mode was
                                            valid (ie: the card supports it) but not safe (the monitor may not).
                5/24/95     ewa             Give the kAllValidModesBit requestFlags option for safe only or all
                                            valid resolution timings.
