Although cheap and effective in enabling use of some software that only used official ROM entry points for text output, this solution proved very slow because the Electron had to be placed into an 80-byte-pitch display to be able to get anywhere near to reproducing mode 7 and the CPU spent a lot of time drawing approximations of mode 7 characters and graphics that in a hardware solution would be achieved without any CPU processing.

Although this produced a mode 7 that barely impacted upon CPU performance and gave the same visual quality as the BBC Micro, it remained compatible only with software that used the ROM routines for outputting text and graphics and still used 10 kB of memory for the display.

Because the original designer had left the company another employee completely redesigned most of the system, ( adding a display snow remover circuit, true 80 / 64 column text mode support, ( with different size letters for TRS-80 and CP / M mode, so that in TRS-80 mode the full screen was also used, not just a 64x16 portion of the 80x25 screen ) with an improved font set ( adding " gray scale " version of the TRS-80 mozaik graphics and many special PETSCII like characters ), and a more flexible and reliable floppy disk controller and keyboard interface plus many other small improvements ), also an enclosure was developed for the main computer system, ( in the form of a 19-inch rack for the Eurocards ) and for two floppy disk drives and the power supply.

By filling the character pointer memory with values from zero to 1919 this essentially turned the text mode display into a very high resolution graphics mode, with the " font memory ", acting as the high resolution Raster graphics video memory.

Keywords in AA were distinguishable from other text by being underlined ; there was also an " uppercasedelimiters " mode where all uppercase letters ( outside strings ) were treated as underlined lowercase.

COCONET, a BBS system made by Coconut Computing, Inc., was released in 1988 and only supported a GUI interface ( no text interface was available ), and worked in EGA / VGA graphics mode, which made it stand out from the text-based BBS systems.

For example, an IBM PC might have either a monochrome or a color display adapter ( using different display memory addresses and hardware ), but a single, standard, BIOS system call may be invoked to display a character at a specified position on the screen in text mode.

This is effective during boot in text mode and in a DOS box in Windows safe mode with 50 lines.

Many printer drivers do not use the text mode at all, even if the printer is capable of it.

Filesystems can be mounted in binary mode ( by default ), or in text mode, which enables automatic conversion between LF and CRLF endings ( which only affects programs that open files without explicitly specifying text or binary mode ).

Note that any valid SGML or XML document that references an external subset in its DTD, or whose body contains references to parsed external entities declared in its DTD ( including those declared within its internal subset ), may only be partially parsed but cannot be fully validated by validating SGML or XML parsers in their standalone mode ( this means that these validating parsers will not attempt to retrieve these external entities, and their replacement text will not be accessible ).

The Dragon's main display mode is ' black on green ' text ( actually the black was a deeper, muddier green ).

* a modal editor supporting command mode, text mode and viewing mode

A braille embosser is a printer, necessarily an impact printer, that renders text as tactile braille cells.

A laser printer rapidly produces high quality text and graphics.

Today it is common to print everything ( even plain text ) by sending ready bitmapped images to the printer, because it allows better control over formatting.

Fax ( short for facsimile ), sometimes called telecopying, is the telephonic transmission of scanned printed material ( both text and images ), normally to a telephone number connected to a printer or other output device.

In publishing and academic contexts, a manuscript is the text submitted to the publisher or printer in preparation for publication, usually as a typescript prepared on a typewriter, or today, a printout from a PC printer, prepared in manuscript format.

Unlike either printers or plotters, however, a laser printer makes it possible to position high-quality graphics and text on the same page.

The teleprinter includes a keyboard, which is the main means of entering text, and a printer or visual display unit ( VDU ).

One of these, the printer and gifted linguist Jean-Joseph Marcel, is credited as the first to recognise that the middle text, originally guessed to be Syriac, was, in fact, written in the Egyptian demotic script, rarely used for stone inscriptions and, therefore, seldom seen by scholars at that time.

Although printing news, messages, and other text at a distance is still universal, the dedicated teleprinter tied to a pair of leased copper wires was made functionally obsolete by the fax, personal computer, inkjet printer, broadband, and the Internet.

* Laying out the text at the resolution of the printer on which the document will be printed.

* Laying out the text at the resolution of a specific printer ( in most cases the default one ) on which the document will be printed using the same font information and kerning.

If we define control characters as non-graphic, or as having a special meaning for an output device ( e. g. printer or text terminal ) then any escape character for this device is a control one.

* Teleprinter or Teletype printer or teletypewriter, a device used for communicating text over telegraph lines, public switched telephone network, Telex, radio, or satellite links.

Inspired by the Xerox Star and Apple Lisa, TPS ( Technical Publishing Software ) uniquely enabled authors to write their text and create technical graphics on a computer screen that showed what the page would look like when formatted and printed on a laser printer.

" Richard Field, Shakespeare's first publisher and printer, was a Stratford man, probably a friend of Shakespeare, and the two produced an excellent text.

The line printer is an impact printer in which one line of text is printed at a time.

S. audiences would never go for the final chapter, in which Alex sees the error of his ways, decides he has lost all energy for and thrill from violence and resolves to turn his life around ( a slow-ripening but classic moment of metanoia — the moment at which one's protagonist realises that everything he thought he knew was wrong ).

The author's name " indicates the status of the discourse within a society and culture ", and at one time was used as an anchor for interpreting a text, a practice which Barthes would argue is not a particularly relevant or valid endeavor.

This was due largely to increasing popularity of textual communication services such as instant-and text messaging.

The practice of reading to oneself without vocalizing the text was less common in antiquity than it has since become.

The Sanskrit text was printed at Calcutta in 1831.

Between 1424 and 1433 he worked on the translation of the Lives and Opinions of Eminent Philosophers by Diogenes Laërtius, which came to be widely circulated in manuscript form and was published at Rome in 1472 ( the first printed edition of the Lives ; the Greek text was printed only in 1533 ).

The commentary itself was written during the papacy of Pope Damasus I, that is, between 366 and 384, and is considered an important document of the Latin text of Paul before the Vulgate of Jerome, and of the interpretation of Paul prior to Augustine of Hippo.

In addition to being married to Jochebed, Amram is also described in the Bible as having been related to Jochebed prior to the marriage, although the exact relationship is uncertain ; some Greek and Latin manuscripts of the Septuagint state that Jochebed was Amram's father's cousin, and others state that Amram was Jochebed's cousin, but the Masoretic text states that he was Jochebed's nephew.
