Summary
Submitted by XmikeX on 29 October 2018
It is the Era of Emulation, so we can play with the roms a little more these days without hoping a promenade c1 burner or cheap chinese usb burner falls onto our laps ... or hope that someone figures out how to do a proper flashrom replacement that can be programmed in-place from the Commodore itself !

HOWTO:
1) prepare and edit 155 characters of PETSCII for use as new EasterEgg (if someone wishes to create an editor for this, be my guest)
--- the easteregg decrypt routine in C-128 will display bytes inline through $FFD2 ..and NOT as a screen map or screen capture -- arrange your display bytes accordingly
2) convert the new PETSCII EasterEgg into raw hexbytes (C-128 BASIC / ML Monitor can be used for hexbyte generation), save hexbytes for conversion by nodeJS script
3) set up nodeJS on your system
4) run the nodeJS script included in this release
5) dump your raw EasterEgg hexbytes into the script, and it will generate a new basichi rom for you containing your new EasterEgg in crypted form
6) install new basichi rom or romfile (emu)
7) on C-128 (or emu), SYS 32800,123,45,6 as before and watch your new EasterEgg be displayed !

Note: A new sample EasterEgg (using PETSCII graphics geared for reddit c128, where I first posted this) is included within the script, available by hitting X + ENTER
