BorderTron 3000 - SAM Coupe Edition

This is a version of my little "BorderTron" utility, tailored specifically to the SAM Coupe.

It outputs Z80 assembly listings, or DSK files ready for loading into your real SAM Coupe or an emulator.

Unlike the generic version, this one isn't restricted to the limitations of the Spectrum. So it offers a number of benefits:-

• 16 pixel minimum width for colour changes, compared to 24 pixels on the generic version
• Choose from any of the SAM's full CLUT of 16 colours to display in the border
• Uses line interrupts to position the bottom border, leaving >80000 cycles free per frame for whatever else you want to do
• Independent choice of colours in top and bottom border images
