Hello everyone
Just looking at http://sdcc.sourceforge.net/ , a Small Device C
Compiler. Was there a reason why it can't be used to compile to SAM?
Hope you're all doing well! I've spent a couple of days trawling
through my 20-year-old SAM floppy collection to see what's salvageable.

When you say the tiles are 'precompiled', have you used a sprite builder
to print the deltas? If so, I'm confused about the left-hand clipping
if there's no real scrolling involved. Surely you're not printing all
those tiles each frame?
