Bill: While I don't understand enough to provide answers to your question, "Hidden Powers of the TRS-80 Model 100" has an entire chapter on the LCD including "How to Program the LCD" and "ROM Routines for the LCD." Full of goodies but over my head. Ken

Ken, I wasn't particularly looking for LCD routines so much as I wanted to use its pixel map for generating variable size type faces on my TRP-100 printer. I could have created a map manually but I'm too lazy to spend hours developing a type font when there's one already in the M100's ROM. Tim Peters msg #88138 has the necessary decoding info for the ROM pixel map. Bill.
