It was up to the software to read the state of that button (which was mapped to I believe one of the annunciator or TTL input addresses that are accessible on the ][, ][+ and //e I/O (internal joystick) port) and then switch accordingly to either 40 or 80 columns. I can't remember one program that actually did anything with this stupid button (I think I may have used one program at some point that reacted in realtime to this button; also I think ProDOS would boot into either 40 or 80 columns depending on the setting). An address to adjust the CPU speed would be the only new feature on a //c+, and that was most likely mapped to a previously unused address somewhere in the $C000 page memory map.
