Re: A85: Display

Here's a simple, small routine that I think should replace D_HL_DECI.  This
version lets you set how many spaces to pad the number to, so if you used
it to display a 8 bit number, you'd set it to three and it'd look just like
D_A_DEC.  Hope this has the possibility of helping.

;******************* Display Number routine *************************
; needs 6 bytes temp storage called asciiNumb
;Description:   Displays a number on the screen in text format
;Parameters:    hl - number to display
;               b  - number of places (1-5) to display
;               de - location on screen
;Destroys:      a, b, de, hl

DisplayNumber:
        push    de
        ld      de, asciiNumb+5
DispNumbLoop:
        dec     de
        call    UNPACK_HL
        add     a, '0'
        ld      (de), a
        djnz    DispNumbLoop

        ex      de, hl
        pop     de
        ld      (CURSOR_X), de
        res     3, (IY+5)
        ROM_CALL(D_ZT_STR)
	ret
