2024-03-02: The wiki ran out of disk space, so things were not working. This has been resolved by adding another 5GB of quota ;-) Thanks to Tim Lindner for reporting the issues. 2020-05-17: If a page gives you an error about some revision not being found, just EDIT the page and the old page should appear in the editor. If it does, just SAVE that and the page should be restored. OS-9 Al (talk) 12:22, 17 May 2020 (CDT)

80 Column mode for Disk Edtasm+ with a CoCo3

From CoCopedia - The Tandy/Radio Shack Color Computer Wiki

This patch will autostart the Disk Edtasm program in a 80 column mode.

Load in the DOS/BAS program from the Edtasm disk. Add these two lines;

0 WIDTH80:PALETTE 0,63:ATTR 0,0:CLS1
2 REMEDTASM

Save the DOS/BAS program back to disk. Be sure you do this to your working copy, not your original disk.

The next time you run DOS/BAS, it will be 80 columns wide, black characters on a white screen. If you are running out of buffer space, edit line 2 to load EDTASMOV instead of EDTASM, gives a little extra room for editing. See my fuzzy screenshot below for a typical screen in this mode.
