Re: A89: Re: Re: tios2.01


I am sorry; you are correct.  I had forgotten that I had installed LexOS to
see if it actually worked with the new ROM version.  After resetting my
calc, I find that it _is not_ a feature of the OS, but a feature of LexOS.

On a side note, graphlib uses ROM calls, doesn't it?  I think that it uses
tios::heapalloc for it's greyscale routines, which explains why it doesn't
work on the new ROM.  I was trying to use PV to watch those movie
destruction clips, but LexOS always reports an address error.  I assume that
this is because PV/graphlib tries to execute a ROM call to a place in ROM
that doesn't contain the heapalloc function, and starts executing code which
results in an address error.
