- I am using GFA Basic on an Atari ST (1/2 meg memory). I have been
- trying to use the following code to move a sprite around. The problem
- is the flickering on the screen. I have an idea that page flipping or the
- command VSYNC might help, but do not know how to use them.
-
- Here's the code :
-
- CLS
- RBOX 10,10,100,100
- GET 9,9,101,101,box$
- FOR i=1 TO 100
- CLS
- PUT 10,x,box$
- NEXT x
- END
-
-
- Also, is it possible to load GFA Basic programs with the .BAS
- file extention (I belive these are from GFA Basic 1.0). When I try to
- do this I get an error message saying 'Not GFA Basic version 3.5 file' :-(
-
- Please direct E-mail to matthew@hiatech.com.au

- Thanks in advance,
