The following commands are from the MonitorDepth
dictionary, which you will find in the same place as
standard additions. Note though, that going through an
applescript to set your monitor depth (i.e. - colors) may be
slower than doing the same by manually using the control
strip object for the same task. I haven't figured out how
to reset the monitor sizing (i.e. - pixels by pixels, such as
1024x864, etc).


System Object Suite:

monitor depth: e.g. copy monitor depth to x
monitor depth
Result: anything -- Current Monitor Depth

max monitor depth: e.g. copy max monitor depth to x
max monitor depth
Result: anything -- Maximum Monitor Depth

set monitor depth: e.g. set monitor depth 8
set monitor depth anything -- Desired bit depth for the monitor
[Result: anything] -- The reply is not required

min monitor depth: e.g. copy min monitor depth to x
min monitor depth
Result: anything -- Minimum Monitor Depth


Best Wishes,
