here's something handy for screen 12 sprites

[dumbledore]

bsaved qb screen 12 sprites -> bsaved fb screen 12 sprites.
(compile this with fbc, of course)

Code:

DECLARE FUNCTION Dec$ (num$)
DECLARE SUB RipImageData (Array%(), ArrayIndex%(), i%, PixelData$())
DECLARE FUNCTION Math.Ceiling% (num!)
DECLARE FUNCTION Dec2Bin$ (a%)
'$DYNAMIC
DEFINT A-Z
CLS
line input "qb - bsaved image file?", qb$
line input "fb - bsaved output file?", otpt$
