Text cut off and some of it is repeated
Hello
Got a bug while posting in the thread bitmap display/extraction in the coding forum. It cutted the last of my text and repteated some other. Here is the situation that lead to the error:
1. I started writing the text but was interupted
2. Came back, finished writing and submitted, but this then the session was timed out.
3. I actually was prepared for this so I had copied the message into the clipboard. So now a made a new messages and posted the text again. However, the posted text was fucked up and even though I tried to edit it, it wont get right..

Im trying to post the text again here. My guess is that it will work now since there is no previous session timeout:
Another easy way to convert a charset is to write your own converter. In Kick Assembler this can be done in only a couple of lines. Here is how to do:
1) First organize your letters in the right order according to the PETSCII format in a grahics program like photoshop and saved it in the file 2x2char.gif. See it here
http://www.6581.dk/2x2char.gif
2) Write the converter in Kick Assembler:
.pc = $3800
.var charsetPic = LoadPicture("2x2char.gif", List().add($000000, $ffffff))
.function picToCharset(byteNo, picture) {
.var ypos = [byteNo&7] + 8*[[byteNo>>9]&1]
.var xpos = 2*[[byteNo>>3]&$3f] + [[byteNo>>10]&1]
.return picture.getSinglecolorByte(xpos,ypos)
}
.fill $800, picToCharset(i,charsetPic)
3) Now assemble the program and you now have a converted charset that can be used in a scroll as it's done here

If you insist on converting from some kind of c64 bitmap format instead of gif then use the LoadBinary function instead of the LoadPicture function (Fx. LoadBinary("koalapic.prg", BF_KOALA)) and access the bitmap data via. the getBitmap function.

Well. My guess was wrong.. If you give me an email address, I can email the text that makes the board go crazy..
