You can save 5+6*3 = 23 cycles by not using 'count' and checking the 
stackpointer ('chara' etc. must start at $80 then!) instead. 

And 6*2 = 12 cycles by storing odd and even letters in different tables.

Still not enough for a whole line, but maybe someone else finds 
some more cycles. :-)

Have?fun!
