Try using the dt program. You can get it from puma.bevd.blacksburg.org.
It still uses a white background, though, unless you change the code to
do a black background and a white foreground like I did. All you have to
do is change the complete screen clear code to write 0xffffffff instead
of 0 and change the if statement in the character drawing function to
draw an inverted chracter as normal and a normal character as inverted.
All that code is in grf.c

When I run that way it looks so much like a PC that it's kinda spooky :)

If you can't figure out how to do the mods then I could send you a uuencoded
binary by email.

Hope this helps.
