ah, but I have no creativity! I need a subject... :(
(a *challenge*)
or then I could dive into the archives I have built up... Howabout
a 256 byte disk read? Reads any quantity of sectors from any track(s).
(puts Apple's boot code to shame, and is machine-transparent)
Here is a keen idea: best hi-res transition! Do anything to get from
viewing hires page 1 to hires page 2 (a 'wipe') in under 257 bytes.
Complete wipe in less than 10 seconds, for brevity. No particular
pictures in pages 1 and 2. (make it look good for any pix)
