Ugh... Sure I did prove this refresh thing someway. But I don't remember
how.

The same goes for the Plus/4. Just remove the vertical border with the
same trick you'd use on C64; if you switch the computer to single clock
mode, you can set the pattern the same way as in C64. But when enable
twiee clock, the borders will display the data fetched by the proc.
