Hi Bob,

Thanks for the info. If someone can point me to a copy of ZAP, I'll certainly look it over. I understand the use of both gfx and gfx2, but there are things I seem to always get wrong when I'm trying to write code for it, and looking through pdf's of the manuals is very time consuming. Being able to see examples of statements, even in another source file, is always better for me.

Wayne

Hi Wayne,

I may be able to do a tutorial on GFX and GFX2, however, you could first look at the programme written by Don Berrie and myself called ZAP. That is written in Basic09 and has liberally used GFX2.

Hmmm, I thought there should have been a copy of ZAP on RTSI, but I can't find it. Can someone point me to a copy online?

> I, for one, am interested. Not that I need tutoring on the use, but there may be things in your tutorial that I am not familiar with. I am always interested in learning more about OS-9 and Basic09 and its utilities. Come to think of it, a tutorial on the use of gfx and gfx2 would be nice as well.
