This is my first posting to this net, so please pardon me bringing up what
may be an old subject.

My problem: I am ambitiously trying to write a terminal program for the
C-64, and have decided that it will be near useless without an 80-column
display. I am aware that there are several boards out to do this, but am
interested in a software-only solution. I would prefer to write my own, but
can't decide all that would be involved. Has anyone got any theories on
this? Please post responses, as my mailbox is kludgey.

Thanks in advance.
