I wanted to get the best from an unexpanded A600 (ECS graphics)
with its OS2.0 Workbench 1Mb ChipRam: I decided to keep
a 4 colors screen, and use a "copper patch" like "MagicCopper",
to display a rainbow of nice colors, and get things more funky
while the ram will still be available at its maximum.
But unhopefully, magicCopper is Only AGA compatible !
Nevertheless, the functions used by magicCopper to display
rainbows are perfectly available on A600/A3000 (ECS) and to
some points, also for A500/A2000 (OCS chipset, os 1.3)
(note: the following tool is of course still AGA compatible.)
So I quickly did this little assembler program, so my little
configuration doesn't look grey and poor anymore:
Note that the executables are only 592 bytes long and will
only consume between 1 and 4 kilobytes of RAM, which is good
for stock configurations. No tool is supplied to
change the colors, but you can easily change them in the source
WBCopper.s (read the source comments at the top).
You can also change the color index which is affected while
reassembling.
Additionnaly, the workbench menu bar will get a special shading
according to the OS version, and ECS/AGA machine will have the
"borderblank" feature on (dark borders).
Installation:
-Choose one of the executable (WBcopperRed, WBcopperBlue,...) or
re-assemble one by downloading and installing phxass, and follow
instructions in WBCopper.s.
-Then copy the executable in C: and launch it at the end of your
S:startup-sequence or s:user-startup script.
*** Do not copy it in OS3's WBStartup drawer, DO NOT launch
it from a workbench Icon: dos launch only ***
