- The BLOAD and BSAVE statements in QBasic can be used to save and load data
- to and from the video buffer. In most modes, including 320x200 mode with 256
- colors, this works. However, I have discovered that in 640x480, 16 color mode it
- does not exactly work right. Whenever I BLOAD a colour image into the buffer, I
- get a black and white image on the screen. Could this be a bug in QBasic (I am
- using V4.5 .....I think), or is the image encoded differently in the video buffer in this
- mode?
-
- Any e-mail relating to this problem would be appreciated.
