The original ancestor of this document was by Chin Fang <[email protected]>.
Eric S. Raymond <[email protected]> reworked, reorganized, and massively rewrote Chin Fang's original in an attempt to understand it. In the process, he merged in most of a different how-to by Bob Crosson <[email protected]>.
The material on interlaced modes is largely by David Kastrup <[email protected]>
Nicholas Bodley <[email protected]> corrected and clarified the section on how displays work.
Payne Freret <[email protected]> corrected some minor technical errors about monitor design.
Martin Lottermoser <[email protected]> contributed
the idea of using gnuplot to make mode diagrams and did the
mathematical analysis behind modeplot. The distributed
modeplot was redesigned and generalized by ESR from
Martin's original gnuplot code for one case.
