Hi, Oleg! theme "Scorp and Kai". OG>>> Please, make a version with 64 characters. If necessary DL>> hehe. We believe that this is not necessary. DL>> If you want to object, explain why it is necessary - to CODE. OG> The amount of information present on the screen increases. Due to a decrease in clarity. It is more important for us that it was clearly visible. (by the way, I have a converted VTC-202, DARK has a TV). OG> _I_ find it more convenient when all comments are aligned one by one OG> column, and with 42 characters under the comment field. very little remains OG> places. Although I rarely write them. I don't write comments at all. I'm writing annotations before functionally completed procedures, and even then not always. DARK does the same. All this looks like: ;************************************************ ; SVFILE TYPE "C" TO DISK; ; CAT CACHE IN "CSPACE" OR (CSPACE)=#FF ; HL-BEG, DE-LEN, BC-NAME EXIT: NC-O.K. ; A(7) - 1-OFFDISK C A=0 DISK ERR. ; A(6) - 1-ASK OVERWR. C A=1 NO DISK ; A(5) - ... C A=3 ... SVFILE... and stuff like that... OG> 64 character font is functional, No, we can't see it well. Some symbols stick together. you have to strain. You just have to get used to 42, after that I don’t want to look at 64 anymore.It would be possible to make two versions, but the string storage format does not allow its length more than 40. We need to redo the format... OG>>> And it wouldn’t hurt to build in support for the scorpion screw. DL>> Write a driver, we’ll insert it. Although it works with disks OG> Input data for it?

Tell me this - about all sorts of #5B.. and other bass areas. Everything is crashing down there. And what about errors? In addition, for some reason, on the scorpion at the command "exit to bass" the seventh screen is placed. This means that “something is rotten in the Danish kingdom”; The Scorpio system doesn’t like something. And the source can be in CODE, it will be of interest to everyone. DL>> ps.

Before I bought the monitor, I worked at Electronics. Mon. I bought it a year and a half ago, in the summer, in scorpion. I have an I-don’t-remember-what-brand monitor with amazing quality and awesome black color. VDC 52700 is written on the case, but what is this?;) And he climbed inside. for a long time. If you're interested, don't hesitate Zerova, he'll tell you. If he remembers ;) DL> I don’t write comments at all. I'm writing annotations In principle, me too, but sometimes I have to. For example, when I I wrote my packer and had to comment on the packaging algorithm, it’s just quite complicated and was written over several weeks, you and the alterations. This is why I use comms, so that the next day don’t suffer from thoughts like “Lord, well Have I screwed up here!?...". OG>> 64 character font is functional, DL> No, it's hard to see.

The only critical address is #5b5c. According to the 3rd bit of shadow Vic exposes the screen. In principle, in new boards there is the ability to determine the current configuration, but the shadow of this doesn't. "What would work on old boards as well."
