Low-Speed Double-Density Graphics Mode
Ah, but the FX has a special print mode to take care of this very
problem. It’s called the Low-Speed Double-Density Graphics Mode.
Change the 2 of line 20 to a
1
and change the text in line 50 once more:
20 A$=CHR$(27)+"*"+CHR$(l)+CHR$(50+CHR$(0)
50 LPRINT "PLOW-SPEED DOUBLE-DENSITY GRAPHICS "
Take note of the print speed when you RUN your program this time.
It’s the same density as the previous mode, but printed at half the
speed. As you can see in Figure
11-3
or from looking very carefully at
your printout, this time the CHR$(42) columns are printed as
requested.
