Anyone can write code that doesn't work. Anyone can also say something doesn't work without giving details about what doesn't work. I assume that the emulator that you are speaking of is in fact capable of running SHR programs in ProDOS 8. If not then that is your explanation. The only conclusion I can come to since these SHR programs work a a real IIgs, and on an Apple IIe with a VOC, and on an Apple IIe with a Carte Blanche and Charlie's SHR Mods, and on Kent Dickey's kegs32 emulator in Windows, is that either the emulator you mention does not work, or the system that the emulator runs on does not work, or both. Since doing these demos of mine in both Aztec C65 and cc65, several emulators etc. have been found with graphics mode bugs, which indicates that they are either poorly written, poorly tested, or both. Perhaps nobody else is using them so did not notice. There may be a reason why nobody else uses emulators that do not work. There are other 8-bit programs out there that use SHR written by other authors... SHRView for example A logical place for the author of an emulator when trying to detect a bug in his software while running 8-bit programs that use SHR is to test with several programs. In any case, if you review the code for my demos, it is very straight forward and well documented, and transparent You should be able to find the emulator bug and fix it yourself, or just use an emulator that works.
