Thx Dave,  I have some AS7C256 32K rams I am going to try (it’s what I got in the part bin, for next size down)

I see in the reports for all the roms, the hex code isn’t properly sized, yet the font rom seem to work, as I get the flashing cursor.

Should I do the assignments from the pin planner, or the assignment editor?
