The .EXE for the BBS you entered that on is about 350k big, 100% quickbasic.

DYnamic allocation, as long as the memory's there...

> Or how about a program in 800x600 256 color mode?

inregs.ax = &H0065
CALL INTERRUPT(&H10, inregs, inregs)
' that places you in 800x600

DEF SEG = &HA000
for i = 1 to 100
  poke i, i
next
' write to screen memory
