If one extra bit-plane is used to get the extra shades, why not just use it to get twice as many colors as present in lo-res mode? Surely this will be lot more flexible than the half-bright mode..... Anyone care to comment on this? -- UUCP: {ihnp4,seismo,ucbvax,dcdwest}!sdcsvax!nosc!uhccux!yuan ARPA: uhccux!yuan@nosc.ARPA INTERNET: yuan@UHCC.HAWAII.EDU AT&T: (808) 395-1732 "I'm an Amigoid, she's an Amigoid, they're Amigoids, - Yuan Chang - Wouldn't _y_o_u like to be an Amigoid too?"
