Color control codes

[LCD]

Hallo boriel, you wrote, the control codes can be used like in BasIn, I tested it:

Code:

print at 0,0;"\{i7}\{p2}\{b1}Test"

works fine, but BasIn allows this too:

Code:

print at 0,0;"\{i7p2b1}Test"

which does not work. Is this a bug?

Yes: Didn't know BASIN allowed that. Which version do you have?
I will implement it, anyway.

Release 15 beta, but it was implemented earlier. It was described in chapter "the .bas file format". There are also other escape sequences like Puond Sterling code too...

Btw: Release 1.2.1 is excellent. My latest test Program needed 8 Kb before, now it is only 4 Kb...

Errr. It needs 4Kb less to load, but once run, the HEAP zone will be created and it will take another 4Kb (Heap is the temporary memory for string management). So you ended up using 8kb again. In the next releases a new flag for the heap will be used so you can specify a 1024bytes heap, etc.

This is what I expected, 4K less to load is still very good result... I hope, the heap does not go over 49152, because this will surely cause a nice crash if I switch the bank on Spectrum 128 .
