Re: Mix LGR and Text?

It switches out the middle of the screen to text, and animates
the top and bottom in LORES. IIRC it just uses the white bars
on the screen as switching points.

Now I misrembered the problem - ][ scanning works fine, but
//e scanning doesn't. All the timing is NTSC. I did have PAL
timing working but not switching to that at runtime.

That makes more sense.  It's probably using VBL, which is
not implemented.

But on my PAL //e it _did_ work fine. Can anybody tell me if
it works on an NTSC //e? (Flicker is failure.)

Cheers,
Nick.
