- Yessiree, you're right...
-
- Quite a long time ago, I've asked -- on the net -- if there were
- some ways to simulate the GET/PUT GFA Basic instructions in C ?
- (Preferably HSC)
-
- I've got exactly NOT A SINGLE reply...
- So what ? I stick to GFA Basic for writing games and only use
- C for writing programs with no (or little) graphics
- (such as a CD collection database prog I'm currently finishing).
-
- For people who don't know what GET and PUT are:
- GET x1,y1,x2,y2,CH$
- copy the screen portion given by x1,x2,y1,y2 into the string CH$
- PUT x,y,CH$
- copy back the screen portion in CH$ as a rectangle with x,y being
- the upper left point coordinates.
- Note that there's no restriction such as x and/or y coordinates having to be
- multiples of 16 as in some BITBLT routines...
-
- Maybe someone'll get an idea this time :-)
- Maybe even I'll get ONE reply...
- But I guess it will say "I don't know :-(".
-
- See you perhaps later...
