The following almost crashes the computer - it takes ages for the Task Manager to come up. Changing the boolean to integer and the function works okay.

+ Code Snippet

function screenFade(dirx as boolean)
l as integer

   select dirx
      case  0  :  Rem fade down
                  for l=255 to 0 step -1
                     set gamma l,l,l
                     sync
                  next l
                  endcase
      case  1  :  Rem fade up
                  for l=0 to 255
                     set gamma l,l,l
                     sync
                  next l
                  endcase
   endselect
endfunction

In addition, remove the x from dirx and the function still compiles (which is incorrect)

Yes, I really am THAT good...
