Created new vera functions to set the mode of a layer, in one call, and to paint an area with a tile. More functions like this will be made. (like tile increment, tile template fill, etc, etc).
Worked out functions to set the dimensions of the tile map width and height.
When in conio, scrolling is disabled (by calling scroll(0)), then printf will print beyond the visible screen borders and will print until the tile map border is reached.
I still need to add the scrolling functions, but that is not too much.
I have stolen your irq routine to pan the screen smoothly!
When all the characters are drawn, you can still type or move the cursor :-).
for conio-cx16.h, there will be a dependency on veralib.h. Because of the layering. So that we can direct conio towards a specific layer. But now conio-cx16.h is not anymore polluted with vera encapsulation functions. These are moved to veralib.h and veralib.c.
- vera layers
- vera layer config
- vera layer mapbase
- vera layer tilebase
- vera layer color
now conio is using the new vera functions. conio is cleaned from exotic functions, except screenlayer, which i believe should be part of conio to indicate to which layer conio is outputting.
- fine tuned the veralayers.c demonstration program.
- fine tuned clearline(), which will clear the current line of conio_cursor_y and reposition x at the start of the line.

Added a number of new methods in conio to accommodate this.
screenlayer()
setscreenlayermapbase()
getscreenlayermapbase()
screenlayerenable()
screenlayerdisable()
screenlayerenabled()
