Where are the built in functions in ROM? Do I need to subtract $1A from
the address given for ROM 18.0 or not? Also, what does the 82 header look
like?

However, B&W pics are not what I want to compress. A SQRXZ world (not
pics) is what I want to compress. Has anybody come up with an algorithm
that does better compression than the PCX format? TIA
