I am attempting to program an improved vt100 emulator in Action! for
the Atari. This program would improve on the vt10sq public domain
program in various ways:
source code will be put in public domain
improved, modifiable character set
no mysterious system hangups

i was well on my way to implementing the 80 column screen routines
when one of my 'improvements' to the program did something to the
program. i have gone through it many times and even rewritten the
kernal, but still this bug remains. the problem is not in the
display, but which character gets displayed.
a to z and A to Z get shifted to !.. etc. i know what the bug does
but can't find the source
any help in this matter would be appreciated. also any help at all
in the programming itself would be appreciated.

i can be reached at:

sdcc13!ee65sct

until 6/13

thank you very much
