1. Text on a Bitmap
Hello,
I'm TRYING to make a program with EUPHORIA and I'm fairly new to the
language. I have programmed before but I have a question.
I have a bitmap image showing up on the screen and I wanted to show
text on it. I use a 256 color mode to show the image. The characters a-z
work fine but the numerical chracters don't show up, I get weird characters
instead. How can I get around this?
Thanks in advance,
Vic.

Hi.
I've worked extensively with Euphoria programming that involved bitmaps and
text together on the same screen, and never had a problem where only the
letters showed up.
My question is if you are correctly displaying numeric data as ASCII characters
like 1 2 3 and so forth, or are they coming out as ASCII numeric
representations, such as 32 coming out as a blank space. Are you displaying
numeric data using %d in the printf() command for example?
Please reply back as soon as possible
Thanks

Hello,
I see what the problem was, I was using the puts() command instead.
It appears fine now using %d in printf(). The puts() gave me the other
characters.
David, Thans for the help!,
Vic.

Aha! I figured that was the problem :)
Glad to be of some help. I'll bill you later! ;)
