Welcome, Dan. I've got Commodores, Altair (clones), and a Tandy 102 and 200. I've been contemplating jumping into the Amiga scene, but I've been holding back just because that's an expensive, deep dive. =) Again, welcome, and join in the fun. Tom Wilson wilso...@gmail.com (619)940-6311 K6ABZ

I'm trying to port a program I wrote on my M100 to run on my NEC 8201A. My program draws a few lines, and this turns out to be a lot harder on the 8201. It seems that NEC, in their infinite wisdom, removed the LINE() command from NEC BASIC, so all I can do is plot individual pixels. My program
