Re: DOS IS NOT DEAD ???
I think my problem was trying to use it with DosBox which does not have LFN support. Yes you need LFN support, since everything is converted from Linux without shortening the file names. It will run in a Windows XP DOS box. ------------------------------------ DOS IS NOT DEAD Are you sure ??? (see ...

Re: Text interface application
in qb I can use ╔ but in FB it shows up as a + (even if I press Alt and enter 201) I never tried to PRINT such "evil" char's ... in any case, you can poke the "evil" values directly into the VRAM at $000B'8000 ... they will definitely show as characters, not cause any "cont...

WARNING: this program uses 686 (Pentium Pro/K6/CyrixMX2) specific instructions '(like CMOVxx,RDTSC, etc) It will not work with 586(Pentium/K5)/486/386 processors. CMOV is easy to avoid, but RDTSC is a pain to replace :-( From version 2.31 FS is now bug free for FAT32 and ISO9660 - completly functio...

Re: @ bad idea
Its doing neither of these things. Its loading the original pic using one regime and saving it using another regime NO. I was pondering on A the cause See above: your fault, you are deliberately loading a 24 bpp BMP into a 16 bpp buffer. Try to carry 24 gallons of beer using a 16 gallons barrel wit...

CR and LF in 0.23
Version 0.23 of FB packages (DOS and Win32) differs from 0.22 by "FBC.EXE" updated (deliberate, good) but also by a large amount of files switched from "LF" to "CRLF" or vice-versa, without any "useful" change to the content. This had been already an issue in ...

Re: bug in bload ?
When you load a 24bit bmp in 16bit screen mode the alpha data is not discarded ( the bug ) FYI, a 24bpp BMP does NOT hold any Alpha data. There apparently exist 32bpp BMP's that can hold Alpha OR just unused garbage values in the upper 8 bits of every pixel. I don't know how FB handles such BMP's, ...

Re: A in 16bit mode
i mentioned there was 32k (32 thousand colours ) in 16bit mode. This is because i was confused in thinking there was an alpha channel the user had control of in 16bit mode. There are 64k different colours possible in 16bit mode not 32k colours. There is no Alpha support in FB's 16 bpp modes. VRAM c...

HTML
Very same thing. HTML uses sRGB color space and specifies the R G B values as UINT8 in HEX :-)dodicat wrote:obtained from the NET were HTML, but came out perfectly well when used as hex rgb, so what is the relationship between HTML and HEX?

screenres 400, 300, 32 I'd prefer 640 x 480 ;-) FYI, the Wiki pages http://www.freebasic.net/wiki/wikka.php?wakka=KeyPgPoint http://www.freebasic.net/wiki/wikka.php?wakka=KeyPgPset were horribly broken, so I fixed the text. Someone please update the examples, preferably using a reasonable mode (640...
