Blitz Basic CustomCop command

[JPQ]

Blitz Basic CustomCop command only thing what i dont understand is how string is (first parameter) defined for CustomCop? if i need copper command which is hex FFFE (fictional example) then i do string FFFE orwhat?. want changecolours to left to right at least i want test some ideas thisway.

i have manuals which tell how copperlist is done but they of course dont ansver how this Blitz Basic 2 command work.

Hm, i've never used the CustomCop cmd myself; the more useful one is CustomString.
There are some docs on BUM6 about that, the example below is a modified src from BUM6:

 NEWTYPE .mycop
    size.l            ;0 = not initialised
    coppos.l          ;location in chipmem
    colors.l

    bplanes.l

    customs.l
    dob.l
    numbp.w:colpokes.w                  ;limits
    fetchwid.w:xand:xshift              ;for show calculations (3 words)
    ypos.w:height:res
    numsprites.w:numcols:numcustoms
    aga.w                               ;24bit=$8000 fetch = $00,$10,$20,$30
    resshift.w                          ;lo,hi,shi = 2 1 0
    setup.w                             ;lines taken for setup
    cblow.w                             ;if custom goes below 256
    sfetch.w:spres:spif:spwid:sspwid    ;sprite mode for display
 End NEWTYPE
