Quigibo:
If you have any requests for new commands post your ideas here.  also, it would be helpful if you provide what you think would be a good syntax for that command.  Keep in mind that if you redefine a BASIC command, it should either be useless or there should be a way to still perform the old command in a different way.

DJ Omnimaga:
True, I think it's essential to not completly ditch certain important commands for others.

As I suggested via yahoo a week ago, something like:

Text(Method,Y,X,string

For method:

-1=big fonts
0=small fonts
1=big inverted fonts
2=small inverted fonts

And obviously, for most drawing commands (maybe even Text(, if not too hard), store what's displayed in the graph buffer, not directly to the LCD, so people can update the display whenever they want (reducing flickering when sprites moves around for example)

EDIT: Not completly ditch pictures as support. Pictures as BASIC coders knew them I mean, else I don't think people will be very happy if their title screen takes 96 sprite slots and have to be displayed sprite by sprite

Silver Shadow:
I want sprites. And possibly not only 8x8.

Quigibo:
Sprites are absolutely an essential part of this.  I will probably only support 8x8 and 96x64 sprite sizes though.  If you need other sizes, you can write your own subroutines to display them.  For instance, in Pyoro, the bird is a 12x12 sprite, but I draw him using 4 8x8 drawing routines for each corner.  If I do end up supporting other sprite sizes, it will probably be very late into the development.

ztrumpet:
This is so awesome!  I really like the different picture sizes.  :D
*ZTrumpet dosn't accually have a wishlist, as the other topic brought out all my suggestions. ;D
