[Pjbexploder-announce] Version 1.0.37 released...

[Michael H. <mi...@ho...>]

This is version 1.0.37 of pjbExploder, release date May 3, 2004.

This is a big-fix / enhancement release.

You can now update the splash screen on your PJB!  There's a new menu
item under 'pjb'.  When invoked, pjbExploder will ask you for a text
file.  This text file is used to generate the splash screen of the PJB.

The format of this file is extremely simple - just use a space
characters to turn a pixel off, and *any* other character to turn it
on.  Your display is 128 wide by 64 high.

I use Notepad, and set my font to 'Lucida Console' (a fixed width
font, Courier would also work), and a font size of 4.  Make a pretty
picture, and save the file somewhere you can find it.

You may use the full 64 lines of the PJB, but in that case it will
*not* show you the name of the PJB at boot.  If you leave enough blank
space at the bottom (i.e., you use less than 64 lines), then it will
show first the name, then (if there is enough space) the FLASH
version.

If your text file has too many lines, or any lines are longer than 128
chars, the extra is safely ignored.  If lines are less than 128 chars
long, then blank is assumed.  Fewer than 64 lines?  Blank.

Note that there is *no* way to save the current screen from the PJB.
