Yessiree, you're right...
Quite a long time ago, I've asked -- on the net -- if there were
some ways to simulate the GET/PUT GFA Basic instructions in C ?
(Preferably HSC)
I've got exactly NOT A SINGLE reply...
So what ? I stick to GFA Basic for writing games and only use
C for writing programs with no (or little) graphics
(such as a CD collection database prog I'm currently finishing).
For people who don't know what GET and PUT are:
GET x1,y1,x2,y2,CH$
copy the screen portion given by x1,x2,y1,y2 into the string CH$
PUT x,y,CH$
copy back the screen portion in CH$ as a rectangle with x,y being
the upper left point coordinates.
Note that there's no restriction such as x and/or y coordinates having to be
multiples of 16 as in some BITBLT routines...
Maybe someone'll get an idea this time :-)
Maybe even I'll get ONE reply...
But I guess it will say "I don't know :-(".
See you perhaps later...
