Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

Thanks for the links. I tried to understand the code, but I gave up: this is way too complex.

I however found a solution which works pretty well: my ESP32/Fabgl now runs as a VT100 terminal which uses the TRS80 CRT as a display. The PicoMite simply connects to the ESP32 in Serial Console mode, and voilà, it works! I get a nice 640X240 resolution, just in text at this moment, but I have seen that a display driver can be written in Basic, so maybe it could do the trick with regards to the graphics. Anyway, thanks to all for your help!
Emmanuel.
