Mike, CoCo3 BASIC has three sets of initialization values that
it uses for setting up the text modes. 
Each table is 9 bytes long. The first byte is loaded into $FF90
and the next 8 are loaded into $FF98-9F.

The tables are located as follows:

For the 32/16 screen. $E032
For the 40/24 screen. $E03B
For the 80/24 screen. $E044

Any values that you put in the tables will be used by BASIC to refresh
the screen.

You think AT&T thinks about CoCos, music, or Star Trek?
No?  Then, these opinions must be all mine!
