Have you found out how to detect the pen yet? I haven't found time to
really dig into this thing for anything new so far.
I do think I can answer your question about the screen though. Int 10h
graphics functions for placing text on the screen and positioning the
cursor work just fine. There's no cursor of course, but it does control
text position. I haven't worked out the screen length and width yet.
I also haven't tried turning pixels off or on yet. Int 10h might do that
too. I'll find out when I get the chance. Without a keyboard it's pretty
slow going when I do get to fiddle with it.
It was a type when I said Goes users seemed to be into hacking. I meant
to say that they didn't seem to be into hacking. Everybody seems
interested in living within the rules. That's fine, and makes good sense,
but it's not nearly as much fun. For some reason the Zoomer or Geos has
attracted a more serious than usual group of programmers. These are the
kind that make a system tick just fine and make it easy for the users.
But it doesn't seem to have attracted the kind of programmers that just
ignore the rules and do it wrong until they make wrong work. I think
we need both kinds to make a system really useful. Neither type is
much good without the other.
Thanks for replying and sending that code. I'll reciprocate when I have
something useful.
