I've downloaded your patch, applied most of it with a few changes and fixed/added a few other things: * GEOS has its own implementation of revers, no need to add one. * The CBM-II series also has a RVS flag which can be used. * The lower case mode is stored in the CHARCOLOR variable together with some other attributes, so it was the textcolor() function that didn't allow the lower case character set to work. * The "disable scroll" flag must be set, otherwise the screen scrolls when writing to the character in the lower right corner. I don't have the problem of revers mode being enabled on exit. There may be some other incompatibilities however, since the output routine will now accept escape sequences and the like, but I think we can live with that, especially since the new code is smaller than the old one, because it uses the ROM routines. There are a few problems remaining: bgcolor/bordercolor don't work any longer, and hardcoded screen sizes don't work either. I've created a new snapshot that contains all the changes if someone is interested. Unfortunately I have problems with my DSL connection, it was flaky since noon and now down for most of the last 5 hours. I hope this gets fixed until tomorrow. Thanks a lot for this great patch! It will give groepaz more work for his tetris clone:-) Regards Uz -- Ullrich von Bassewitz uz_at_musoftware.de ---------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe from the list send mail to majordomo_at_musoftware.de with the string "unsubscribe cc65" in the body(!) of the mail.
