Hello,
I am a little short on time now, but plan to do some BASIC programming soon (haha, sound serious  ), but in fact I really want to do some serious structured programming to generate some surprises.
Question: does Austrospeed compliler support GSHAPE and SSHAPE function of Basic? As i knwo, it is converted thing from C64, and probably able to manage most of those commands, but still my keyboard it not fully OK.
In fact these function doing very intensive memory copy, so Autrospeed may speed them up to 5x (?) faster. Then they become lightning fast, imagine XOR-ing a small picture accross the screen.
(in reality I think noone uses GSHAPE and SSHAPE in BASIC as they are just too slow in normal conditions)
