Re: include pokew and peekw in basic?

DEF FN PEEKW(W) = PEEK(W) + (PEEK(W+1)*256) Be wary that this type of coding may be prone to inconsistent data issues. If the value of the word changes between the first Peek and the second one, you might get an incorrect value. Imaging reading a counter that increments with every CPU cycle. If eac...

Re: PLOT $FFF0 (x,y) with vpoke?

I've broken it into many secretions as there was a lot of content in your post. "Secretions"? :lol: Thanks for catching that funny error. Reminds me of hearing about an early electronic device translating "compiled code" into "software excretions" in a technical docume...

Hi funkhead, Thanks for your response to my post. As promised here is a reply to your message., I've broken it into many secretions as there was a lot of content in your post. Hi good afternoon. There is also vpoke/vpeek on the cc65, prog8 and other nice things in the languages to get to know the x1...

Re: AUDIO BOOK APP..VOLUME CONTROL BUG FIX

BUMP FOR BUG FIX. Are you asking for someone to hit you to get a bug fixed? :D POSSIBLY :? I believe I read in Code Complete (MS Press) that fixing a bug is more likely to introduce a bug than repair it. But at 900 pages I can't find the actual citation of the study done where this fact came from. ...

Not the right place about ROM updates, but a suggestion on where it should be

It seems to be impossible to post or reply in the "Official Software" forum, sadly. Further discussion on the r47 release would need to take place in a new thread somewhere else. Thanks for that info - missed that it isn't a place for responses. A new thread perhaps in hardware support on...

Re: PLOT $FFF0 (x,y) with poke?

I play with madpascal I've not played with madpascal at all, nor have I really dived into understanding VERA, so I can only give advice in what I know in BASIC. My emulator is quite outdated, R38 so your sample program doesn't run (note that I expected it would not work.) I just got my X-16 hardwar...

Re: Serial Number Tracker

PR00823 arrived in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada today. It was ordered on Feb 8th, shipped on March 22nd so the "pipeline" is 43 days from order to shipping. Not bad for a small shop with DIP assembly by hand on a low volume product. 55 days from order to arrival. 12 days for somethin...
