 Subject: Atari XL BASIC bug?

Hello!

I was programming the Atari XL
in BASIC, but using Atari800
emulator, version 2.0.2 under
Linux.

I came to the following bug,
when using "COLOR 125" or
"COLOR 155" in a high
resolution graphics mode
(8,11,15,...).

First look at this simple
program. It paint 2 horizontal
lines in graphics:

1 GR.15+16
2 COLOR 1: PLOT 0,125:DRAWTO 50,125
3 COLOR 2: PLOT 0,155:DRAWTO 50,155
4 GOTO 4

Works fine. And paints 2 lines,
horizontal in 2 different colors.

Now I try using very high COLOR
values, the same I use for the
height of each line:

1 GR.15+16
2 COLOR 125: PLOT 0,125:DRAWTO 50,125
3 COLOR 155: PLOT 0,155:DRAWTO 50,155
4 GOTO 4

Well, this won't work. And paints
a strange and rare picture, like
a torch...

Does anybody in the Atari World
know why?

Greetings,
SoLo2
