Subject: KAYPRO II Video

RE:  Detailed information on Kaypro II video driver

Note  that  these  codes  are  for the older, original Kaypro II (sometimes
called a 2'83).  The new Kaypro 2's, (often referred to as 2'84's) and 2X's
and  4's  have  the  same  capabilites  as the original Kaypro 10's.  These
include,  in  addition  to those listed for the Kaypro II, video attributes
(inverse,  low  intensity, blink, underline) and text erasure (end of line,
end  of  page).   The  Greek  alphabet is not included in the newer models,
however.

The  newer  boards  (all  Kaypro  8  bit models now contain the same mother
board)  also  support a limited "graphics" capability.  This is handled via
the BIOS in a pseudo pixel addressable mode.

The Kaypro remains, however, a functional superset of the ADM3A.
