- I placed the package on amiga.physik.unizh.ch at 10:40 am local time.
- It was uploaded to /amiga/new with the hint that it be put into os20.
-
- From the README:
-
- Here are two little programs that show all 2^24 colors on an
- AGA HAM8 screen without ever changing the 64 base color registers.
-
- gtest was the first attempt (people should not run gtest unless they first
- study the code to see how to exit :-). gtest2 is the program that should
- interest most users. Full source code is included with both programs.
-
- There is also an example use of the display database in gtest2.
- Hopefully this example will stir commercial developers to support
- the display database in their programs.
-
- This code, except the ListRequest () routine, is PD. Donated to
- the public domain by the author, Loren J. Rittle <rittle@comm.mot.com>.
- Have fun with it, but please don't claim this work as your own. As it
- is PD, please feel free to take any pieces to your own projects.
-
- ListRequest() originally by Willy Langeveld, October 1991.
- Changes for this project by myself.
- Willy gave me permission to include this code with another
- package. As it is quite useful, I have included it here in
- another form. Thanks Willy!
-
- Thanks to Chris Green (of Commodore) for:
- LoadRGB32 (struct ViewPort *, unsigned long *table);
- #pragma libcall GfxBase LoadRGB32 372 9802
-
- Let's hope that more entry points are revealed on UseNet to tide us
- over until the real includes are available...
- For example, I'd like the pragma info on the system calls that allow
- me to do double bufferred animation under the OS... :-)
-
- Enjoy!
