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)
