Re: programming: Good luck. Anchor uses one of the CIA's timers to provide the
timebase for the modem. 

The information's out there. But it's not an easy task. 

Re: color graphic terminal: There's tons of C/G terminals that support the
6480. I was browsing Q-LINK a few nights ago, and there were 4 or 5 C/G
terminals that supported the 6480. I didn't download any of them, though, so
can't tell you much more (I have a monochrome monitor here on my 128, so what
use is a color	terminal program?).

Try your local Commodore computer club, they may know more than I.
