8X+ > finding last app page
« on: September 26, 2014, 01:55:19 am »
Welcome...

Alright, here is the thing :
I already coded a routine to find the last app page (start of the apps area).
But today, while i was reading some stuff on wikiti, i just saw that port 23 holds the last app page - 1 : http://wikiti.brandonw.net/index.php?title=83Plus:Ports:23
Of course, it would be quite a speed & size inprovement to just read that port, but i'm not sure how safe it is to rely on it.
I mean, if it was so easy, why would this page tell how to find it manually : http://wikiti.brandonw.net/index.php?title=83Plus:OS:Variable_Storage_in_the_User_Archive

Should i replace my routine by just a simple port read or should i be paranoid ?
