From: Cameron Kaiser <spectre@...>

The 9918A in the Tutor is of course capable of more than what GRAPHIC
allows it to do, but there's no way from the native system to leverage
display modes other than 256x192 8x1 hi-res.

However, there is a way to get independent "pixels" using a 64x192 semigraphics
approach. While pixels get fatter, they can each have independent colours
by setting the bit pattern to 00001111 and using the background and foreground
colours to control each half.

XTOMYDEV now supports this "GRAPHIC 64" mode. I put some sample images
up as XTOMYDEV bitstreams, too. The screenshots are on the Tutti II page.
