TJBChris | BIG-ly Tandy Part III: Banner #septandy @TJBChris | Uploaded September 2022 | Updated October 2024, 13 hours ago.
The third video in my #SEPTandy series, BIG-ly Tandy. Using my TRS-80 Model 16B, I try out a Model II-mode program named Banner running on TRSDOS-II Version 4.2.5. I print three banners, with varying success, using the program's different text, font, and style options. And, since it's a BASIC program, I look at a small portion of the listing and modify it for my printer.
