Notice. New forum software under development. It's going to miss a few functions and look a bit ugly for a while, but I'm working on it full time now as the old forum was too unstable. Couple days, all good. If you notice any issues, please contact me.

The following program errors in a way that to me seems odd:
mode 1,8
dim a$(200,100)  ' yes, use a huge amount of memory
blit read 64,0,0,100,200
blit write 64,0,0

For this particular memory usage, the program errors on line 4. This implies the chunk of screen memory has successfully been read into a buffer. However, it seems even more memory is needed to write the buffer back to the screen. Really?
