Notice that the checkerboard character's dots extend to the edge of the
matrix, while the
"A"
has space
at
the sides and bottom. This built-in space
is
the only space between adjacent characters on the screen. The 8 X 8
matrices
of
characters displayed on the screen actually touch those
of
adjoining characters, making the screen a continuous field of dots. Here
is
a
magnified
view
of
a small section
of
the screen.
