Wow, all-in-one with profiler, Thanks!

Please let me know how you can make use of it.

For starters, was thinking on a QR code in the About screen of my software, showing a QR code to the GitHub page with documentation.

Obviously, as earlier I think considered by DBug, you could think of a high score code generator for online hall of fame.

@iss, do you have a link to your XA compatible version?

Here you go: oricOpenLibrary/lib-qrcode.

Attaching the 2 compiled demos here too:
* qrdemo.tap - C/ASM
* qrdemoa.tap - ASM only

Some theory: (TL;DR) the size of generated matrix depends on the length of input data.
So the max size 25x25 that fits on #Oric text display (40x28) limits the input data to 106 bytes.
We can easily double the length with alt-chars then 2x2 square will be replaced with single char.
Of course a hires render is possible too. @rax is working on this...

Thanks

Guess I'll have to see how many characters I want, so probably a short URL (my shortest domain is OSDK.ORG), the player name, score, end condition, possibly the unlocked achievements, actual play time, and some simple checksum validation to eliminate the most obvious cases of abuse.

Where are these two defined?

Code: Select all

#include "compat.h"
#include "xa.h"

Remove/comment-out them. It's not important (like #define byt .byt - just beautification for my personal taste ...).

Correct.

That's what I did in the initial version. Source code for 2x2 squares in one petscii character is here: https://github.com/The8BitTheory/qr128/ ... /render2.a

Rendering to a VIC-IV sprite for the Mega65 is done here:
https://github.com/The8BitTheory/qr128/ ... enderspr.a

VIC-IV sprite is probably misleading, as this is really only writing a single square as a single pixel.
So it can be used for anything, really

Hope that helps speeding up your work
