Yes, but I also mean other applications of peek, like the screenwidth or ....
Name it! The same with USR, too bad the BIOS may not be used... (How about for
disabling the screeen, on a MSX1 demo?)

That's a very good idea, let's do it that way. Anymore suggestions for the
Pascal compo? Tristan, may we use FUNet again for the Pascalcompo?
