This is an update to a program I ported a while back. The use of 2 arbitrary colours on the main screen always struck me somehow wasteful in relation to the 4 colours used to designate card suits, which was itself a sad concession to the apparent graphics limitations of the MC6847. I was able to solve both issues by using the 4 corners as spaces to display a suit-to-colour indicator key-- a silly break between end-of-term marking duties.
