I'm a good citizen...I recycle!!!
Seriously, it seemed easiest to reuse Paul Slocum's kernal...
actually, the options selector kernal does almost as much stuff
as the "real" kernal...the PF wall, pterry, the 2 players...
just not the ball.
Pterry's not doing too much, just there for decoration,
but it's easier not to have to reset the player graphic
positions
I have to go to bed...but the question remains...if I screwed
up the loop....what the heck am I doing in my messed up
memory clear routine that lets that work??? Could it be
related to my other kernal blowups?
Oy!
