Q. Is it possible for the Spectrum to produce a screen displaying more than 32 characters per line e.g. two letters to a character block?
I've completed a spreadsheet program where all the figure inputs and alterations are updated on screen, but I only have room for (maybe) six adequately sized columns, and I need roughly twice that.

A. The 42 column display routine we published in issue 49 may help, but if you want more you can get Taswide, which is a machine code routine from Tasman software giving you a 64 column display. It costs £5.50 including postage from Tasman Software, 17 Hartley Crescent, Leeds LS6 2LL.
