I was pretty imprecise there. Experimentation is good at this stage, but
making major design decisions before we know just what's possible is a bad
idea. For example, if there happens to be a timer hook in the OS,
greyscale programming will be quite easy. It would be wasteful to devote
too much effort to implementing greyscale before we know if there's a
timer hook.
I'm glad we agree, James^H^H^H^H^HJoe. ;-)
