[Coco] How to get to 80-col mode on Coco 3?

Thu Mar 31 13:52:11 EDT 2011

Hi,

WIDTH 80

ATTR 3,2

as needed:

PALETTE RGB
 or
PALETTE CMP

But I use "RGB" all by itself???? "CMP" by itself also?

I checked both the Quick Reference Guide and the CoCo 3 book!

---------------------------------

WIDTH 32 

for CoCo2 Mode

If you cannot read 80 column text, try

WIDTH 40
