On Pages 209 and 210 of "Microsoft QuickC: C For Yourself" is a
listing of the program GRAPHIC.C. In addition to the misspelling
pointed out in README.DOC (i.e., _ERESNOCOLOR spelled incorrectly as
_ERESNOLOR), this program is missing a semicolon after the definition
of modes.

This definition should read as follows:

   int modes[12] =
   {
      _MRES4COLOR, _MRESNOCOLOR, _HRESBW,
      _HERCMONO,
      _MRES16COLOR, _HRES16COLOR, _ERESNOCOLOR, _ERESCOLOR,
      _VRES2COLOR, _VRES16COLOR, _MRES256COLOR, _ORESCOLOR
   };

If this code is compiled without the trailing semicolon, it will
produce the following error:

   error C2062: type 'void' unexpected

This error will occur on the prototype to print_menu as follows:

   void print_menu( void );
