does anyone in the #MSX community know if there's a #MSXDOS1 program that will #software #emulate #80column mode?
@Wintermute_BBS I only know of 64 character mode being implemented in software on MSX1, but I've only ever seen the ads for it.
@Wintermute_BBS With only 256 pixels wide, each character would have to be 3.2 pixels wide max, of which one will be for kerning. So that's going to leave only 2 pixels wide for making the characters πŸ˜… That's going to be next to imposible to read!

@Wintermute_BBS Unless you have a particular LCD panel connected, in which case you could try with the 1 pixel font that uses sub-pixels!

But I've tried and none of _my_ screens work with this method. ☺️
