Christmas Snowflake Author: George Phillips Category: Christmas Challenge System: TRS-80 Model 2 Language: Z-80 Assembler Len source code: 540 Len exe file: 73 Len code only: 56 Instructions: Can be imported into trs80gp in Model 2 mode. But easiest just to run from the command line: trs80gp -m2 snow2.cmd Description: Uses a 1/4 bitmap of the snowflake and loops over X and Y looking up each bit to display. Needs a condition to get the outter pixels on the long horizontal line. Avoids printing a newline by looping over 80 columns rather than 19. Comments: Two cute things. Orgs at the ASCII value of '*' * 256 so it can get that constant for free. And it so happens that value works well to center the snowflake which is a lovely coincidence.
