   |   Drawing character graphic maps
  My tool of choice is CBMPrgStudio but it has one big omission. I cannot draw maps greater than 40x25 chars.
  Back in the day I used Tony Crowther's 3-in-1 editor, which was epic for the time, but way too clunky now.
  What would you recommend to design large screens, i'm looking for something that will allow 4x2 screens?

  Plus4Studio is more of a tile map editor.. And I am not entirely sure if it is usable for the normal geek.. If there would be the need for a new screendesigner I would be tempted to code that. Found a simple gui library for C++, ImGui, which would make it very easy to do.. Just have to know what is needed, some sort of a checklist. Would take max a week to complete.

  Charpad looks like it will work for me. The C64 colour palette isn't an issue for the project.
  Ooh I like the compress options.
  Thanks everyone.
