Features

  • Detects Apple ][, ][+, //e, //e+, //c, //c+
    • Pretty-print model instead of generic "II_" (bloats from 696 but worth it.)
  • Detects 48K/64K/128K
  • System out all uppercase (for Apple ][ without lowercase)
  • Cleaned up fugly logo by Albert Lai
    • Width is now 70 chars to be exact 4 pixels/char for 280 HGR resolution
    • Bit-packed Logo takes up 210 bytes (2 bits/char) compared to 80*12 = 960 byte
    • X is now symmetrical
    • Fixed L,i,n kerning
    • Fixed x Penguin kerning
    • Fixed L to fit
    • Chopped off 2 columns of penguin to fit 70 chars
  • Expands 2 bits to 4 bits = 2 pixels (70 chars * 4 bits = 280 px)

See: ascii2hgr2bit for packing ASCII to 2 bits/char. NOTE: PackedLen isn't needed if full 40 bytes HGR width is unpacked to.
