This reverse video business sounds vaguely familiar. The only word

I saw an excerpt of the code published in "Programmers at Work", I
understood why.

I remember using a word processor on the II+ I
had in the mid 80s; that
had the shift mod, but no lower case ROM. The software indicated upper
case characters by showing that character in inverse video.Quite clunky,
but it worked fine; I was quite happy with the results by the time they
made their way out of the printer. It's surprising that it worked as
well as it did I guess. Having said that, I was very pleased to upgrade
to a IIe.
I remember that. Was it AppleWriter?
