As did I on SpeedScript and TASword, that is until I bought a broken Amiga 500, fixed it by replacing a single capacitor, modified a CGA monitor (i.e. RGBi, 16-color digital) by adding a preamp so it acted like an analog RGB monitor and used that: true 80-column text. A bit later I added a PC clone to the mix which had a Hercules-clone multi-everything adapter ("Diamond Brand something-or-other" bought on the cheap at a trade show) which I found out could do a bit more than it said on the label when I managed to get the 6845 to display interlaced graphics (50 lines of text, 720*700 graphics, It even worked in AutoCAD...), swapped the motherboard for a broken-and-repaired AT-clone board, etc.
