Demonstration of 'MODE 13' (BBC)

MODE 13 is the unofficial title of a low-resolution screen MODE, selectable with the *MODE command or the NewModes sideways ROM module.[1]

The MODE 13 code adapts the MODE 5 screen to provide a small-memory version of MODE 2, 20 × 32 characters in 16 colours. It does this by redefining the character set to provide thin characters.

MODE 13 can be created manually with the following code running in the I/O processor.

   BASIC:
   MODE 5     :REM Base MODE
   ?&30A=19   :REM Characters per line
   ?&34F=16   :REM Bytes per character
   ?&361=1    :REM Pixels per byte
   ?&362=&AA  :REM Pixel left mask
   ?&363=&55  :REM Pixel right mask
   *FX154,192
   
   6502:
   LDA #22:JSR OSWRCH
   LDA #05:JSR OSWRCH           \ Base MODE
   LDA #&13:STA &30A            \ Characters per line
   LDA #&10:STA &34F            \ Byte per character
   LDA #&01:STA &361            \ Pixels per byte
   LDA #&AA:STA &362            \ Pixel left mask
   LDA #&55:STA &363            \ Pixel right mask
   LDA #154:LDX #192:JSR OSBYTE \ Cursor width

The character set needs to be redefined to be four pixels wide, such as with the one used with NewModes.
