- The IIGS only has one SHR page. You can sort of program as if you had two pages
- by turning shadowing off, writing to $012000, turning shadowing back on, and re-
- writing to $012000 in a quicker way, but this is far more complicated than just
- hitting a softswitch like you can to instantly switch hi-res pages.
