cputs() wraps to the next line if the strings is too long to fit in the current line. I don't know if it's worth the effort to allow cpeeks() to continue reading from the next line. I'd like to discuss this aspect with the actual implementers.
===
This is still as unclear today as it was when I wrote the above. Therefore this change just doesn't add cpeeks() at all.
Since f8c6c58373 the Apple II CONIO implementation doesn't "need" revers() anymore - meaning that (nearly) every possible value can be placed in VRAM with a straight cputc() (without the need for a previous revers(1)).
The implementation of cpeekc() leverages that cputc() ability by always returning the value that can be fed into cputc() without a previous revers(1). Accordingly, cpeekrevers() always returns 0.
So after the sequence revers(1); cputc(x); a cpeekc() will return a value different from x! However, I don't see this behavior braking the cpeekc() contract. I see the cpeekc() contract being defined by the sequence textcolor(cpeekcolor()); revers(cpeekrevers()); cputc(cpeekc()); placing the very same value in VRAM that there was before. And that contract is fulfilled.
By 'inverting' the loop, we can save 16 cycles by removing the `cpy #8`,
saving 16 cycles. But we need an extra `ldy #7` at the start of the
loop, so the total cycles saved is 14. Code size doesn't increase due to
the addition of the `ldy #7` negating the removal of the `cpy #xx`.

ar65: Error: Problem deleting temporary library file '../lib/apple2enh.lib.temp': No such file or directory
```
is the error I'm getting with `make -j 19` when trying
to debug #1080.
Fixes#1054.
Previously, bit-fields followed by another field were aligned
to two bytes. Bit-fields ending the struct were (and continue
to be) aligned only to a single byte.
```
struct s {
unsigned int x : 4;
};
struct t {
unsigned int x : 4;
unsigned int y;
};
```
Before: `sizeof(struct s) == 1`, sizeof(struct t) == 4`
After: `sizeof(struct s) == 1` sizeof(struct t) == 3`
The driver requires a special linker configuration: "vic20-tgi.cfg".
The VIC-20 computer needs at least 8K of expansion RAM!
"tgidemo.c" needed to be adjusted because the VIC-20's vertical (y) range is greater than its horizontal (x) range -- the opposite of most other platforms. Also, the circle demo would jam on the VIC-20.
