Status: O
Is the screen writing in the interpreter done with writing direct to video
or writing to dos or rom bios?
Reason this is of interest is that with direct video
writing it's more difficult for speech synthesizers.
With the other two forms this works better if ascii is used.
If graphics are used like forcing the display into ega or vga
then speech synthesizer packages can't work with the language.
