Nope. Those kind of variables are static pointers.
Once you write data in them, they stay that way.

Ya, what Raylin said is right. What you can do however is something like

Code: [Select]
[FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF
0000000000000000]→Pic1
If getKey(1)
0→A
End
If getKey(2)
8→A
End
Pt-On(0,0,Pic1+A

Obviously not the best method but a general idea, hopefully.

Random question: are Pauses in clock cycles? For example, would a Pause 500 halt execution of everything for 499 clock cycles?

Most likely. I noticed a huge difference in pauses when going between 6 and 15mhz while testing my programs.
I do sprites and stuff, so yeah.

was it like 2-2.5x faster or even faster?

On my 83+ there are things that won't necessarly go just 2.5x slower. For example, when exiting Axe parser, there is a 2 seconds pause.

Eh, it seems that Quigibo is unarchiving the AxeData appvar and rearchiving it every time you run the app. Quigibo, does it really need to be archived? It just holds a couple of options...

Yeah, I'd say it's about 2-2.5x faster in Full for whatever pause you set it to.

Yeah, I've had the Axe parser take a little bit to exit. Usually garbage Collecting gets things back up to speed.
If it's really bogging down your calc, you can delete the App and just transfer it again. I noticed that seems to speed up the parsing time. It seems to me like the more it's used, it slows down just a little bit, but after you clean some stuff, it goes right back to speed.
I do sprites and stuff, so yeah.

woops I didn't see that. X.x. IMHO it might be best if it was left unarchived. I sure don't mind re-enabling lowercase manually and setting up the shell again when going back in the APP next time.

^Yeah, I'd be fine with that too. I just leave it on no-shell all the time anyway. Besides, I already have like 3 other programs for enabling lowercase, so it wouldn't be a problem.

Oh, I wasn't aware you could use getKey like that. So I'm guessing it returns a one if it is pressed and a zero otherwise?

This is true I forgot about that.  I think I will only unarchive/archive at the end from now on if you actually changed any options.

EDIT: And pauses are directly proportional to clock cycles.  However each number on the pause is around 3350 clock cycles I believe.

meishe91: i'm not sure it'll work all the time under every circumstance, but my snippet of code works. (of course if you add in a dispgraph)

Ah ya, I was just referring to how you are using getKey as a test statement that returns one or zero. Ya, I also realized that we need the DispGraph :P

mhmm that would mean Pause 1000 is approximately 3350000 clock cycles?
