# 64 Column Print

Program utility to print up to 64 characters per line in normal video mode.

At the beginning of your program you MUST DIM A$(64, or more), this is the variable that will hold the string to be printed, any variable can be used as long as it is the very first variable in memory, so W$(90) is OK. Also note that only the first 64 characters of the string will be printed.
