QBASIC????
wtf? are you serious? you actually use that?

anyway...
OUT looks like its a command to output to the I/O map, not the memory map!
if its I/O & not memory, you will NOT be able to 'plot a pixel' with it!

Out of interest, why QBasic? I've never liked it (or AmigaBasic for that matter)

thats right! i want to know also!! :-)

amigabasic was absolute ####!
qbasic was muchbetter(especialy the UI)

but you would do better with C or C++ IMO

@fatman2021
no disrespect, dude,

you can also get GCC for free!
and produce much better programs, that will work on the amiga aswell!

if not, dont give up programming though....

03D4h = CRTC
03DAh = for Read is input status #1 register and for Write the feature conrol register, similar to 03CAh


yes, thats all well and good.... but you CANT use those IO registers to draw graphics!! to set screenmodes, perhaps(?)... but not plot pixels!!!
