    Screen 13 is 64,000 bytes long:

    size=(xsize*ysize*bitspixel)/8

    or

    size=(320*200*8)/8

    The 16 color modes are a little tricky, because they are planar
modes. You've got to use a few OUT's to save each video plane(most
people just use GET, save the array, then load the array back in and use
PUT.)
