On the Falcon:

	Cleanest:
		- VsetMode() to save/restore desktop resolution
		- VsetMode() to set the screen resolution

	Safest:
		- DHS demo system to save/restore desktop resolution
		- use code generated using Screens of Pain to set the screen resolution.

	Never set the screen resolution using VsetScreen(), since this will re-initialize the VDI. You can however
	safely use VsetScreen() to set the physical screen base.

On the ST/STE/TT

	Use the XBIOS Setscreen() calls.


That's about it, really.
