Subject: ARM7 CoPro Demo Stuff
Years ago I found a football manager program for the Archimedes with
an intro that drew up to seven letters in a 3D perspective view using
the current OS bitmap font, some maths and PLOT 85 to draw triangles
to make the cubes.
After looking at the listing I found that the code ran on Beeb with no
modification - albeit taking minutes to draw the 3D text out on the
screen. I'm sure that would make a superficially impressive demo for
the ARM copro - it should take seconds to draw rather than minutes.
I'm not sure where I put the disk though...
