==== 1x1 Scrolling message inside IRQ interrupts ====
This routine shows you how to create a 1x1 smooth scrolling message inside an IRQ raster interrupt routine. Looking below you will see that this scroller uses 2 iterrupts. As we cut the raster positions into two parts. Most of the upper raster ramains as normal, while the bottom raster has a smooth scroll effect.

Note: Source is programmed in ACME cross-assembler and it has been tested beforehand too.
