MODE 11

MODE 11 is the unofficial title of a high-resolution screen MODE, selectable with the *MODE command or the NewModes sideways ROM module.[1]
The MODE 11 code adapts the MODE 3 screen to provide a 4-colour version
of MODE 1, 80 × 25 characters in 4 colours. It does this by redefining
the character set to provide thin characters.

MODE 11 can be created manually with the following code running in the I/O processor.
BASIC: MODE 3 :REM Base MODE ?&30A=79 :REM Characters per line ?&34F=8 :REM Bytes per character ?&360=3 :REM Number of colours VDU 20 :REM Reset palette *FX154,152 6502: LDA #22:JSR OSWRCH LDA #03:JSR OSWRCH \ Base MODE LDA #&27:STA &30A \ Characters per line LDA #&08:STA &34F \ Byte per character LDA #&03:STA &360 \ Number of colours LDA #20:JSR OSWRCH \ Reset palette LDA #154:LDX #152:JSR OSBYTE \ Cursor width
The character set needs to be redefined to be four pixels wide, such as with the one used with NewModes.
