Re: A86: 3-color icons?



Well, however many buffers there are (2 is reasonable...) there should be a
way to specify in the actual icon whether to use 1 or 2 buffers...  (You
could actually or it with the size byte (i.e. 1-2 bits for size (%00=8x8,
%01=8x16, %10=16x8, %11=16x16) and then a bit for greyscale...)

Is there a second video buffer?
