I
Jeremy posted his source on his website. Though I haven't really looked at
the source, I tried out his test programs and it seems to be better quality
grayscale than mine. Sometime I will probably analyze it and see what the
differences are, but I'm pretty sure we both use interrupt speed to vary the
quality of the grayscale.

I basically ported the interrupt stuff from the 85, and used a routine given
to me by Dines to put the images on the LCD. It's not the fastest routine,
but it seemed to give better results than faster routines. Then so the
grayscale doesn't look like crap, you need to use port 4 to change the
interrupt speeds...unfortunately the quality that different speeds give seems
to vary greatly on each calc, and of course battery power is a major factor.
Grayscale on the 82 is extremely sensitive to any changes that are made.
I haven't even attempted to implement it into Defiance yet, and I hope and
pray that it will work well.
