Is there a peek() to get the value of a certain ink?

[mr_lou]

Are the ink values located somewhere so that I can get them using a peek?

e.g. peek(some_address) returns the current ink 1 value.

Or... could I call &bc35,1 and then peek(address_of_b)?

Just messing around.

Shame that document is in a poor colour scheme I was clearly straining my eyes on it!    I thought I saw that document on cpctech.org.uk though I couldn't find it cause I think I've seen something similar in better colouring.

I know, I guess I'm just too lazy reaching for the CTRL+A, though surely people are whinging about it, and writing to get it fixed, I cannot help but think that this article maybe on the Wiki though, it looks rather familar. Must of been written back in the days of CRT might have been easier to read it on one of those screens, otherwise it's a very moody choice of colours and the person writing it wants you to CTRL+A!

Since the address could vary for different versions, I'd recommend you use SCR_GET_INK firmware call instead.

Not easy from basic.
