WIN3_GRID

This option is specific to Windows and Windows NT. When set to a non-zero value, it causes a fine grid to be drawn in each floating window. The grid outlines the character cells in the windows. This is intended to be used as a debugging tool to help you see how various controls line up against the window's character cells. It can also help you adjust the layout of a screen.

The grid is drawn using the color number that WIN3_GRID is set to (see the COLOR phrase for the exact values). For example, setting WIN3_GRID to four draws a cyan grid. The grid is drawn with dashed lines. Every fifth horizontal line, and every tenth vertical line, is drawn with a solid line.
