# Alternate Character Set for the Spectrum or the 2068

I know that many of you get very tired of seeing the normal character set for the Timex and Sinclair computers. Then you design a different character set to use to make it look more readable or at least more interesting. I found this оnе іn an old ZX COMPUTING and thought that it looked very good. I am sure that it can be modified to make the program RUN much faster than it does-not including using a compiler. Of course, once you have run the program, you can save the CODE and just load that to use whenever necessary.
