Enchancement: Olivetti M24-like modes
Olivetti M24 had mostly CGA compatible display adapter with several enhancements:
- The display resolution was 640x400
- Standard CGA graphics modes used scan doubling, very similar to Graphics Gremlin
- Standard CGA text modes used 8x16 font, similar to that of VGA adapters
- It supported an additional 640x400 monochrome graphics mode
It would be nice to implement at least the 640x400 / 8x16 font text mode. It is much more readable than the default CGA 8x8 font Graphics 640x400 mode is nice too, but I don't think it was widely used
