     If you are sending 7-bit ASCII Text to the Apple II display with the
high bit = 0, you will probably get inverse or flashing characters. To get a
normal "A", you would send a $C1 (193 decimal).

     If you are in 80 column mode and print a CONTROL-O-- CHR$(15)-- , that
could switch ON Inverse.

     Another way you might slip into inverse is including an "I" in a command
string to the monitor.
