Function Overloading - britlion - 12-02-2011

It would be nice if overloading was supported - functions and subroutines of the same name with different parameters.

For example:

change(ubyte ink, ubyte paper) could change the attributes for the whole screen to a specific ink/paper value without clearing it.
change() sets them to the current permanent colours...
change (ubyte ink, ubyte paper, ubyte start_row, ubyte end_row) could change just part of the screen...

And so on and so forth.

I agree :-)
And think it could be implemented. I'm currently busy in other business (not dead!), so please be patient.
BTW Merry Christmas to you ALL :!: :wink:
