ZXNet echo conference «code.zx»
From Aleksey Malov → To All 28 April 2000
Greetings, All!
Subject I am convinced of this for the hundredth time, reading the messages in this echo conference.
What laconic (a few words) answers that have been checked a dozen times?
three-month old message. Well, who enjoys reading what he said for the tenth time?
there is XY, as well as 9 subsequent comments of the same XY to his own phrases?!
Just in case, I remind you - In "Lara" there is a useful combination of buttons ss + W (in
hunger - ctrl+Y) - don't be lazy, please try to experiment!
I am sure that this pleasant activity will not harm your health at all. Except
Moreover, it will slightly reduce the size of the message without losing its meaning. After all, you
you don’t answer everyone, but only a specific person (I have never seen
Mr. All replied to someone, but so many people write to him with various requests
and suggestions - I even got the impression that he was seriously ill or
even died), which has sufficient memory to remember its words in
within a week.
In order not to get caught off-topic, I’m throwing in a procedure for filling the screen with pixels,
arranged in a checkerboard pattern - it is shorter than published in issue 10
borneda:
ld hl,#5700
ld a,#aa
l1 ld(hl),a
inc l
jr nz,l1
cpl
dec h
jr nz,l1
13 bytes
This procedure has one drawback - if RAM is connected instead of ROM,
then it will fill its contents with the numbers #aa and #55I wish you health, happiness and creative Uzbeks.
