Various tests done with a separate HDMI monitor and a somewhat older TV with HDMI.
With this version the mouse cursor works perfectly with the right mouse button and the Ln: and Cur: are adjusted neatly and with Pg Up and Pg Dn and Backspace it can now be used perfectly.
What is noticeable is that if you want to move the mouse outside the last line, a sync problem occurs in the block of the cursor and disappears again when you move up.
It would also be useful to mention in the manual for each option resolution how many lines and how many characters the different modes in the editor can handle.
Here are some results with Option resolution xxx with HDMI and USB so a separate computer with SD, HDMI, MOUSE, Keyboard, AUDIO, RTC etc.
Compare it with a Commodore64 and Floppy drive and this composition.
The HDMI monitor.

1280 does give a very nice image but unfortunately the outer characters fall outside the image on all sides of the screen.
The other 640, 720, 800 do work but are very small on this screen.
Conclusion with the HDMI monitor with 1280 a beautiful image and once you have worked with it for a while you do not want to go back to the terminal.
With HDMI TV 1024 gives a good clear image spread over the entire screen. So try all resolutions for the best result.
Thanks Peter.
