[net.micro.amiga] ANIMATE ABASIC command question, misc other stuff et el.

dillon@ucbvax.BERKELEY.EDU (Matt Dillon) (12/07/85)

	I have a question on the ANIMATE command.

	What the @#$@$ is the format for the binary/array????????? The
ABASIC manual says NOTHING about it... just that a format exists 
somewhere out-there in the great void (or the depth's of commodore, to
be precise).

	But really, even after writing a quick program to create random
sized arrays and fill them with random garbage, not a single pixel showed
up on the screen.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

	I have not gotten my DOS manual yet, but did chance upon the 
? option (where it tells you the options available for a command)...
dir ?   break ?  etc...  

	I'm still just fooling around, as I have yet to get an Assembler
and C compiler.   It's kind of fun executing 3 ABASICS (they just barely
fit in 512K if you take out the work-bench)...  Unfortunetly, the low-memory 
bugs which Bob mentioned show up more often (sigh...).
