Contour display mode issues

All, I have found an issue with the display mode commands DASH, DOTS, DDSH & LDSH (see page 115 of the PCGRIDDS32 User Guide). Is it just my machine or is this global? If I use the "DASH" command as stated on page 128 of the WINGRIDDS User Guide I get the following contour display: htt...
