I am using c311 to access bank 1.

Since this is an 8 bit program running in ProDOS 8,  I am a little lost now, 
and will think on it. Have I reached the end of what I can do with Aztec C 
on this? Or am I just not thinking clearly? Is this simply not possible in 
an 8 bit SYS program written in C? This would mean that Charlie's 
Carte-Blanche mods would not work on an Apple //e for 3200 color image 
loaders.

That's encouraging. So assuming I can find some way of keeping my program 
running and access the upper bank doing palette switching in ML perhaps I 
can get this to work.

I will look at the source for the tinies loader routines.

I appreciate very much the time you have taken to let me have fun with this 
whole SHR thing. While my BMP2SHR converter is not a full blown application 
like Convert3200, the output is already rivaling your own, which should make 
us all proud, since everything I have learned about SHR is from you and 
Charlie, and from Andy's Ciderpress code for unpackbytes, and from the csa2 
list. Also the material that David Finnigan made available was informative 
on the VOC but if I do use APDA and OPUS I will buy those from Tony Diaz... 
so no harm was done... since I have only reviewed this information and not 
done anything material with the VOC. We are not yet Pirates, and I hope I 
never will be.

I spent some hours yesterday finally going through the kegs32 code, which 
also made me wiser.

I want to finish this SHR stuff sometime in January to some reasonable 
level.
