Alpha codes
The Alpha Plane defines all characters which can be shown on the FX-605P dot matrix display without resorting to POKE.
Standard Plane #
The standard plane contains all the characters available as well as the ar__ commandos. Since the FX-603P supports
PEEK and POKE all Alpha code have cleaned up so that unused codes are truly unused. However with POKE it is
possible to write strait into the display RAM which is far more powerful then synthetic programming was.

Character Set #
The FX-603P uses a different internal character set then the alpha codes. That
is each alpha code is translated into an internal code before display.
Charactes from the internal character set can be displayed POKE-ing directly
into the display memory. The following list shows the internal codes:
