     There's little doubt that the Amos programming community (like it or
 lump it) suffers from the languages lack of internal support for the
 AGA chipset.  Although, today this can be over come via the use of a
 variety of 'so called' intuition extensions, some programmers would just
 rather a quick and really messy solution, so here it is... ;)


     The included source, lets Amos programmers create either 256 colour
 HIRES (640x*256y) or LOWRES (320x*256y) screens. It does this via directly
 programming the Amiga's own copper chip.


     Moreover, this source is provided purely as an 'example' on how to
 set up a custom AGA screen mode through Amos, meaning that if your
 planning upon using this, you'll need to do a little work first...   :)


     Anyway, I hope you find this source useful.
