********************************************************************** * -- THE AMIFLEX TOGGLE PROGRAM -- * ********************************************************************** Hello all NEWFLASH readers!! This small utility was designed to give you some help with assembly language. A FULLY commented source is included with the main program so you can see how it was done in a understandable way. The source will help you to understand... 1:- How to display 32 color pictures on screen 2:- How to read the function keys 3:- How to set up copperlists None of these things are done with the help of the graphics library so you will be able to see how to use low level code to get the job done. INSTRUCTIONS: Function keys are used for selection of the various functions. Use of the program is very straightforward. This is what the keys do... F1 - 50 Hz Mode Selection (Sets up the PAL 256 lines standard) F2 - 60 Hz Mode Selection (Sets up the NTSC 200 lines standard) F3 - Toggles the low pass sound filter ON/OFF F4 - Hard Reset Selection, the program resets the machine F5 - Quit, this is so you can quit with selected options intact The 50Hz and 60Hz mode selections are only available on ECS macines. The program definitely works on Kickstart 2.0. How do I know? Because I coded it under Kickstart 2.0!!! The program has been crunched with Powerpacker Pro V3.0 on these preferences settings... Decrunch Colour - NONE Efficiency - BEST Speedup Buffer - LARGE CREDITS: All code and graphics for the program were done by CYBORG of AMIFLEX and this doc file was typed by me as well. The graphics were done in Deluxe Paint IV and converted to bmap images The code was done in Devpac V2.14 You can reach me by writing to... Paul, 32 Allandale Road, Enfield, Middlesex, EN3 6SB. Have fun with the program, alter it, ruin it and improve it at your leisure bu please send me the results because I am nosey and would like to see them. Send NO MONEY, because I am somenone who believes that you should not make money for only a few hours of coding, especially when it's fun to do anyway. Finally, I would like to ask only that you give me some credit if you turn this program from a humble source code into a masterpiece.
