DISPLAY TEXT (Spectrum)

by C Moore

from Sinclair User 39 (June 1985)



Produce display-size lettering on the 48K Spectrum with Display Text

by C. Moore of Redcar, Cleveland. His machine-code routine searches

for the variable e$ which contains the text to be enlarged. It then

generates an enlargement and stores it in the printer buffer prior to

transmitting it to the screen. Text can be printed in three sizes, and

the routine checks to make sure there is room on the line and the

screen, scrolling the screen if necessary.
