There is NO WM.INKP Trap. If you do mean to call the WMAN-VECTOR WM.TRAP3 with the ink code in D0, then this call always works with the latest WMAN, no matter on what system. > - guess if the QL is not in mode 16,32 or 33 the only solution is to > ignore the four colour palette and always use IOW.INK. WHY? ALL WMAN calls are compatible across ALL systems. > This seems very confusing.... espscially since the WM.INKP trap #3 > returns not implemented on non smsq/e systems running the latest PE, No, it certainly doesn't! Again, there is no WM.INKP Trap. I don't even know where you got the name from, it's certainly nowhere in the SMSQ/E code!
