Re: A82: Assembly programmers? where?



It is possible to resize variables, so when the user typed in more text
you could just resize the var and save the text. The text could then be
saved in a special var which you could send to the PC when you wanted. A
small program would be needed to convert the text, but that should be
extremly simpel to do. The only problem here is that the location of the
resize function has not been found on all rom versions, if someone did
writing a
program like that (with support for lowercase) should be no problem at
all.
