RE: [cc65] Scalable UI without float?

I told you I was tired. :)  Multiply first is the answer I was looking for.

I would recommend using some sort of fixed-point arithmetic.

However, if you do want to continue defining positions in terms of 
percentages, the simplest answer to your problem would be to multiply 
first, then divide.

gotoxy(Item1X*screensize/100,0); cputs(Item1);
gotoxy(Item2X*screensize/100,0); cputs(Item2);
gotoxy(Item3X*screensize/100,0); cputs(Item3);
gotoxy(Item4X*screensize/100,0); cputs(Item4);
gotoxy(Item5X*screensize/100,0); cputs(Item5);
