The answer is that it recreates the look of the Tandy Color Computer 3's 32/40/80 column screen.
I have to thank Kreative Software and the great fonts they created, for this.
The main reason I created this site for, is to showoff... I mean, to share with you the programs that I'm always writing, but also to help other CoCo users, and to show to whoever might come around here, what the heck a CoCo is, and why do I still care about it.
