READ L: PRINT CHR$(L) , Print to screen
5~
FOR
Y=~
TO 1: FOR
Z=~
TO 1:
A = L
+
128*Y
+
32*Z
and make these changes:
6~
LPRINT
CHR$(27)rr&rrCHR$(~)CHR$(A)CHR$(A);
7~
LPRINT CHR$(139);
9~
NEXT Z: NEXT Y
Line 50 calculates the code (A) to be defined in line 60 by adding the
appropriate amount to the base letter
L. Line 60 is the (ESC>"
&"
defining sequence, and line 70 sets the attribute byte to 139.
The code for the letter to be defined and the data for its four compo-
nents are stored in DATA statements. Type:
