Palette Editor
View File
This is a little tool written in BASIC to display the VERA palette and let you edit the colours. A palette file can be saved or loaded. A palette file is simply all 256 colours saved out of memory. The interface was drawn using PetDraw16. The program and files are on a SD card image. Simply attach and load pal-edit then run.

You should enable the "Try It Now" feature.

Is that even possible with an SD card image?

The 'Try It Now' feature only appears to work with a PRG file. Because I've designed this little app to load its interface from a PetDrawX16 file and load palette data it sort of needs the SD image with those files.

Apparently the filenames require .BIN extension to work in "Try it now" - if your program only uses LOAD and SAVE (and doesn't do fopen() fseek() type behaviors) then it should work just fine w/o being in an SD image. I'll try downloading the program and see if I think it could be made to work.

This program is using OPEN, PRINT#, INPUT#, CLOSE and expects media on device 8, so I suspect it won't work with the web emulator.

Then yes, that's correct. It requires an SD card - Regular EMU as well (not just webemu)
