Like many old computers, the TRS-80 Color Computer assigned a device number to the screen that most people never used. Allen Huffman has a great overview of device numbers on the TRS-80 Color Computer. It turns out you can print to the screen just like you print to a printer, to tape, or to disk. This can make for very simple code when you have something that might need to be displayed on a choice of devices.
