#644 Comal-80 No longer works in SVN builds

The COMAL-80 cartridge (as well as the Multi-Easy Easyflash version of it) seems to be broken in the SVN builds, although it works fine in 2.4 (and earlier) from years back.

The 'plottext' function outputs garbage to the screen, like it is getting the data from the wrong memory location for the font.

    Also, oddly enough, the Easyflash version does the same thing on real hardware. So, why does it work on emulation and not real hardware? Is it the emulation that is more accurate, and why did it work on earlier versions? :)

    odd... shrug ideally we find someone with an actual comal-80 cartridge...

    fixed in r29723 ! it should have never worked in the first place IMHO - no idea why it did previously :) emulation is probably still not correct now, but it seems to work :)

    PS: that means the EF version is broken - its probably based on the info in VICE, which was (still is) incorrect

    PPS: r29725 also fixes the "basic" command
