-    * //I wanted a more "modern" and colourful boot experience when I turn on my C64 Ultimate, so I'm using my custom "dark mode" kernal with an alternative font. Love seeing this when I turn it on, and it's nice to be using a fresh font. I might create some other designs too.//
+Service to change the look of the default BASIC startup screen.
-  * I was stated that this was done by modifying both kernel and character rom. But due to copyright concerns these could not yet be shared.
