Nice work. But it's not quite as easy as that, it looks like you missed the finer nuances of colour selection. Specific bits of the different substitutes have to be cleared/set for it to work correctly in all situations. That's why the Q40 and QPC version and even the QPC/QL and QPC/Gray version not only differ in the colour table, but in code also. The next question is probably what bits. No guarantees, but I think it is thus: QPC (valid for QL colour version only) Substitute Bit 2 Bit 7 1 0 0 2 1 0 3 0 1 4 1 1 Q40 Substitute Bit 6 Bit 11 1 0 0 2 1 0 3 0 1 4 1 1 Also I don't understand why line 1500 is restricted to QPC only.
