#Open canvas 6 pixel art code

Currently I'm just putting the last key's code there. I'm trying to create a status line, by jumping between cursor location and line 23, where I print current cursor location and.

You can also do direct manipulation of screen memory by poking at locations from 1024 onwards, but unfortunately the character ROM doesn't directly map to PETSCII.ДЄs a downside of using GET input, you do not get to benefit from the, actually rather nifty on-screen editing that is default for C64. Poking at the right spot (204, 0 for enable, 1 for disable) does turn the cursor on and off, but for some reason, the cursor location is wrong. You can find that in many different sources. The SYS is required to set the row and column. This sets the cursor to a specific row and column, as far as printing is considered. In any case, the various bits of secret sauce I've discovered thus far are: Not sure I had the character and audacity required for such a proactive behavior, though, but meh. I definitely would have been able to get this book, whether via a library or by pestering my parents sufficiently.

I'm not entirely sure I could have comprehended it, or would have had access to it when I was in grade school, but it's at least theoretically possible. I'm not doing THAT retro.Д¬64 Programmer's Reference Guide is fairly good. It's apparently also impossible on the Apple I, but fortunately I'm working with something a bit more advanced. The ability to draw a character at any spot on the screen - within the constraint of rows and columns, perhaps, is key, when you're trying to create either a text editor, or a roguelike, or nearly anything with a text-based UI.
