There are a couple decent tools out there for making graphics into code, and it seems like if we add all this 2600 specific stuff, we'll lose some of the possibilities of being clever that other people have shown... -- KirkIsrael@xxxxxxxxxxxxx http://kisrael.com There is no god and Murphy is his prophet ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Archives (includes files) at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/archives/ Unsub & more at http://www.biglist.com/lists/stella/
