Description:
Once the graphic mode 0 started, a loop is made that repeatedly draws 4 crossings of 9 characters wide
using the method of throwing characters with PLOT and DRAWTO.
Comments:
It has preferred to maintain the readability of the main lines to save some bytes compacting sentences in less lines.
POKE 755 is necessary to hide the cursor.
