DESCRIPTION

The IRIS has three display modes: single buffer, double buffer, and RGB.  In single buffer mode, all of the available bitplanes are simultaneously updated and displayed.  Incomplete or changing pictures appear on the screen.  The singlebuffer command invokes this buffer mode.  It does not take effect until gconfig is called.
