Jepler has been working round the clock to get HSTX DVI output support for the Fruit Jam working – this mode is neat because its ‘text only’ – you get 3-bit color text, it does that by creating a ‘resolution’ of 91 x 30 characters, you can only set the color and glyph. However, the monitor output is a non-buffered 1280×720, with each scanline generated ‘on the fly’, so you don’t need any SRAM. This could be great for something like a Z-machine emulator or other text-mode-only computation – video.
