There's little doubt that the Amos programming community (like it or
lump it) suffers from the languages lack of internal support for the
AGA chipset. Although, today this can be over come via the use of a
variety of 'so called' intuition extensions, some programmers would just
rather a quick and really messy solution, so here it is... ;)
The included source, let users create either 256 colour HIRES
(640x*256y) or LOWRES (320x*256y) screens. It does this via directly
programming the Amiga's own copper chip.
Moreover, this source is provided purely as an 'example' on how to
set up a custom AGA screen mode through Amos, meaning you'll have to do
the rest... :)
Anyway, I hope you find this source useful.
