you can do the same thing on the EPSON controllers too :) they
also have a screen start address that you can tell the controller
where to start looking for your memory..
you can actually read the SRAM (it is mapped to a high address)
just like normal RAM too... :))
the problem is, you need to check, recheck and make sure you
dont mess with something that'll break with future releases,
thats why you stick to API's :)
