Subject: Announce: Brandy Basic - with teletext?!

Hi,

Long been a quiet follower of this list, and finally something to offer.

I've been tinkering with the most recent version of Brandy that I could 
find (1.20.1 from Sourceforge), and have modified the SDL graphics 
driver to put a reasonable amount of MODE 7 support in.

Um... but why?! Because... I felt like it.

It was interesting trying to get the Hold Graphics code to work 
correctly, as two different BBC emulators (BeebEm and jsbeeb) gave me 
different results, so I gave up on that and used RISC OS's emulation as 
a guide to how things should render - and I now get the correct output 
from the Ceefax engineering test page.

I've put it up at http://brandy.matrixnetwork.co.uk/

Have fun. Patches, improvements welcome. Flames, please prefix each line 
with VDU152 and don't colour it. ;)
