Modifications for IBM mode

This program can also be run in IBM mode (DIP switch 1-6 OFF) if you change a few of the lines as shown below to allow for difference in some of the commands. You will get a cylinder instead of a barrel effect, becuase the IBM mode does not have any command to micro-adjust the character spacing.
