I realized that I had never done 10 PRINT on my NEC PC 8201a. The process was complicated by the fact that / and \ are not adjacent in the character map so I couldn't do the elegant form of 10 PRINT. Also the line spacing makes the output less than ideal. The 8201a let's you define your own graphics characters. If I get some more free time maybe I'll make some better slashes that are next to each other in memory. #retrocomputing #basic #10print #pc8201
