So, its inserting a random zero into the rom, in between incspr? That seems lame.

Also, a faster load_vram would be amazing. wink wink nudge nudge say no more.

OK, here you go, it's an early Christmas!  :wink:

This is the cumulative changelog for the current version ...

New in version 3.99:
--------------------
2016-12-20
- Imported Uli's v3.98 version of HuC (https://github.com/uli/huc)
  See README for all the changes that Uli made
- Applied changes from Artemio Urbina's fork of HuC
- Applied changes from Markus Buretorp's fork of HuC
- Fixed compilation on Windows with mingw-w64
- Fixed a few bugs related to Uli's improvements
- Changed System Card parameter equates to have a "__" prefix
- Changed startup.asm to allow a sound driver to use macros to integrate
- Removed Uli's support for interrupt handlers in HuC (they're too slow)
- New str/mem package to replace the old code
    Note 1 : Strings are 255 bytes maximum (+ trailing null)
    Note 2 : When a ptr is returned, it points to the end of the str/mem
             This breaks ANSI/ISO compatibility, but is more useful
    Note 3 : strncpy handing of the 'length' is the same as strncat
             This breaks ANSI/ISO compatibility, but reduces code size
- Bumping version number for all the current changes
- Stop HuC adding an extra ".dw" to usage of .incchr/.incspr/.incpal/etc
- Add extra parameter to set_tile_data() to set the tile type (8 or 16)
    set_tile_data(char *tile, int nb_tile, char *ptable, char type);
- Rewrite load_vram to use 32-byte TIA instructions (3x speed improvement)



Pleafse note the change in the set_tile_data() function call!!!  :-k

Everything is in github for those folks that want to make their own build.


Link is broken! Elmer?
