Does anyone know a program that interlaces the display BUT also doubles the lines to give a solid looking display? DoubleX is for the A4000, but there is one out there like DoubleX that is for A500-A2500 machines. Thanks, Mike McCormick

Please tell me more about DoubleX. Is it for the A4000 because of the AGA chip set and if so would it then be suitable for the A1200? If the answers are yes..yes respectively, where can I find DoubleX? Pete Jones – AutoPiloting

Mike, The program called Lacer in the Tools drawer should do that, if I'm understanding you correctly. David

MM: Does anyone know a program that interlaces the display BUT also MM: doublesthe lines to give a solid looking display? DoubleX is for MM: the A4000, butthere is one out there like DoubleX that is for MM: A500-A2500 machines. I've been using TWO of them. The first is "Lace_ms", which I found on a local BBS a couple of years ago. Lace, works fine under AmigaDOS 1.3, but I can't get it to turn off under 2.04. The other is "LacePointer" which is only for 2.x. LacePointer is meant to interlace the pointer making it half size, but a side effect is that it converts non-interlaced screens into interlaced screens. Both cause the screens to "line-double", interlacing the screen but leaving the display at the same aspect ratio (80×25 characters). Ron. – ap'ing with AP.

Can you tell me where these two programs can be found? Are they on CIS? Thanks, Mike McCormick

I don't know about the old "Lace_ms" program but LacePointer for 2.04 can be found in AmigaUser Library 11, as "LACEP.LZH". Ron. – ap'ing with AP. (Eagles may fly, but weasles aren't sucked into jet engines.)
