View source for Programming:Simple Raster Example 3 (uses CPC plus features)

<pre>
;; This example shows a simple raster using the CPC+ 
;; extended palette, and using the CPC+ programmable 
;; raster interrupts to define the position of the raster 
;; on the display.
;;
;; This example is designed for CPC+ only and will
;; not work on the CPC or KC Compact.
;;
;; This example will compile with the MAXAM assembler
;; or the built-in assembler of WinAPE32.
