Hi!
I have maybe stupid and too simple Q:
how to add "Scroll and other text in this release"?
In which format, how it will be shown, etc.
Thanks for every reply.

Miiro, on youtube, there is a example. I have never tried it.
Good luck!

Think he ment adding a scrolltext to a csdb entry.
Scroll and other text in this release:
Add a new text
You could try/test it a couple of times - shouldn't be a problem. |

First I've written the answer below but I think this is not the answer he is seeking for either. Check "edit".
I think miiro wants to know how to add ascii/petscii text from the source code. It depends on which assembler you are using. it's usually one of the alternatives below.
.text "this is my scroll text"
.scr "this is my scroll text"
!text "this is my scroll text"
!scr "this is my scroll text"
Good old Turbo Assembler and many other assemblers use "." character and some crossassemblers like ACME uses "!" character. "text" and "scr" are not the same thing. "scr" stands for "screen" which means "a" is $01 instead of $41 just like c64 uses for screen memory.
acme has more options for text output like:
!convtab
!pet
!raw
!scrxor
but !text and !scr should be enough for you I guess.
Edit: If Miiro already knew this stuff and asking for CSDB feature just like Sander said, then the answer is "try to convert your texts to ascii, eliminate or replace characters which has no equivalent in ascii, make it readable". is that the answer you were looking for?
Edit2: I've added a scrolltext to one of my releases. Now you can see how it works without risking (!) your own releases ;)
