Just a thought on video modes...
An excerpt from the QL Wiki talks about several solutions to this..
* A program in the Quanta software library allows you to split a screen
vertically in two, with one half displaying MODE 4 and the other half
displaying MODE 8 - http://www.quanta.org.uk/?id=88
* A program Dithvide allows two images to be interlaced, tricking your
mind into thinking that there are more colours -
http://omega.webnode.com/products/product-2/
* The THOR XVI home computer included a MODE 12 command, which provided
16 colours on screen at 256x256 pixels
* The Aurora Motherboard, which provided up to 768 x 576 pixel displays
at 256 colours
* The SMSQ/e Operating System, which, when used on Q40, Q60, QPC2, the
QXL or Q-emuLator, can display 16 bit colour support at very high
resolution.
By the way, I can't get the Quanta library guide to work on Q-emulator
for some reason (cannot open flp1_libguide_dbs error -15 when it tries
to open the database...)
