Simple Blitter Routine#

this is the BETA Version of a simple Blitter Routine for Mirko Sobe (AtariXLE, BOSS X).

Use attached ATR Image. There is a demo Turbo Basic PGM on the Image. The ML-Routine is really simple. All Memory Calculations must be done in Basic or in the programmers brain ;)

To Move Memory from high to low address, use a 16 Bit negative value in the "bytes_per_row_in_frambuffer" parameter. So -40 becomes (40 EXOR $FFFF) + 1 = $FFD8

USAGE: x=USR(<addr of mlroutine> , sourceaddr, destaddr, bytes_in_rows, lines, bytes_per_row_in_frambuffer)

where

  • sourceaddr is the Source Address (like DPEEK(88))
  • destaddr is the Destination Address
  • bytes_in_row is the number of bytes in a row to copy
  • lines is the numbers of lines to copy
  • bytes_per_row_in_framebuffer is the number of bytes per line in the framebuffer (40 for Graphics 0 and 8, $FFD8 for negative = -40)
