Re: Changing the ASCII character




 Rubywand couldn't help but dribble back at Hector:

 R<|      As Nathan observes, what you want to do is swap in a custom
   | character generator PROM for your Text display.

Hey, a thought:  During my Commodore programming days, all one had to
do to make a custom character was to POKE values for each horizontal
line of the character (8x8 grid).  I did whole character sets with
FOR X=0 TO 7 : READ A : POKE xxxxx+X : NEXT : DATA xx,xx,xx,xx, (etc)
-- so is there something similar available to the Apple?
