[GreenKeys] Image Program

I actually did that at an Atlanta Radio Club Hamfest in the late '70s using my Altair and a borrowed high speed "Centronics" printer.  We were one of the most visited "vendor" booths.  A we were doing it for FREE!

I remember in the mid seventies going to the mall, and there was a guy who had a computer in a huge box (way before PCs), a Sony black and white camera, an analog BW monitor and a green bar printer. For 2 dollars, he would print your image on green bar paper in upper case letters.
