Maybe also a progress bar for defragmenting, if that is possible?

I believe that is an OS routine, and so can't be kept track of by Axe D:

Is it a custom image or is it actually a progress bar?

Just a image
EDIT: Maybe it is possible that Axe has then the defragmenting routine built in with the progress bar?

Oh dear. I really despise the attitude that, because it can be done with other commands, there is no reason to make a new command for something, even if the new command would be much faster and lead to smaller code.
Oh look, the z80 doesn't have a multiply instruction! Eh, let's leave it to the Axe prgrammers, surely they won't mind!
Oh, wait, that's exactly what didn't happen. Thanks Quigibo!

RectOff or RectW would make a white rectangle ? You just need to do
Rect(A,B,C,D)
RectI(A,B,C,D)
and you obtain a white rectangle :)
Yeah, the reason I don't like this is that you have to use two commands, and I'm assuming a command could be made to just do the opposite of Rect( anyways.

Doors CS uses some clever hacks involving hooks to just be able to skip the confirmation screen and draw an image. Tracking the progress would require somehow knowing what the GC routine is doing while also redrawing the image, which as far as I know simply isn't possible with hooks.

I just noticed there isn't an 8.8 divide yet. Could you add that?

If it already exists, then sorry, i didn't find it.
My projects
 - The Lost Survivors (Unreal Engine) ACTIVE [GameCommandoSquad main project]
 - Oxo, with single-calc multiplayer and AI (axe) RELEASED (screenshot) (topic)
 - An android version of oxo (java)  ACTIVE
 - A 3D collision detection library (axe) RELEASED! (topic)(screenshot)(more recent screenshot)(screenshot of it being used in a tilemapper)
Spoiler For inactive:
- A first person shooter with a polygon-based 3d engine. (z80, will probably be recoded in axe using GLib) ON HOLD (screenshot)
 - A java MORPG. (pc) DEEP COMA(read more)(screenshot)
 - a minecraft game in axe DEAD (source code available)
 - a 3D racing game (axe) ON HOLD (outdated screenshot of asm version)

You just invert and multiply. So to divide A by B, one simply does B-1**A.

I have the greatest idea in the world. A function that does this:

neg(*insert integer here*)
This would make the number negative. Yes I know you can do // and >> and all that, but this one would put the - thingy behind it and everything. This would be better because then I wouldn't have to keep writing a subroutine to do this for me......

While were's on the subject, how about a command that determines the sign of a number.  I.E., anything over 32218 (I think) would return 65535 (-1), anything between that number and zero would return 1, and zero would return 0.  I remember 86 Basic had it and it was a nice command.
