Hello guys!

In the kernel 0.77-3.0d - looks like Put Image uses
reversed colors. It says in description that memory structure should be

RRGGBBRRGGBB..

but it looks like it is really is:

BBGGRRBBGGRR..

Question will that be fixed in next version or should I develop my program to use that order?

(You can check this by exporting a virtual screen picture to Adobe Photoshop .raw,
all colors will be shifted. Also you could write a simple program to display memory by byte).

Another thing I would like to see is a system wide text clipboard atleast for TinyPad so you can copy text between open windows.

Also I would like to notice that print numbers and text should be made to pring not only on window but also on any image.

Otherwise there is no way to have real time graphics and text output in the same area.

Thank you,
mhack

the x86 architecture uses a special byte ordering
if you want a pixel with r=1 g=2 b=3
the 32bit number is 10203h rgb
but is stored in memory like: db 3,2,1,0 bgr
thats why in the video ram blue is first.

Hi,

The correct term for reverse byte order is


"little endian"

A convention used since the beginning.
