I'm targeting VGA and composite CGA because both those video outputs are analog, unlike the digital CGA and EGA outputs.

See, they're analog, meaning they don't use binary. You might even say they're... Non-binary

I would love to do PCjr pride (it has enough colors) but as far as I know all the outputs are digital.
Maybe Tandy pride? Don't some of the Tandy 1000s have composite out?

Anyway the main problem with all these spinoff ideas is figuring out an 8 letter filename.

VGAPRIDE.EXE is just too perfect

I might do TXTPride, for the subset of pride flags that can be displayed in 16 color text mode.

Would Plantronics Colorplus modes be of any help? 🙂🤷‍♂️

@simonzerafa nah. I don't think I have a card with support (maybe an EGA Wonder?) and I think it'd be a digital connector anyway

@kawa I love serial ports!

@foone Whereas the CGA flag is simply a tricolor of cyan, white, and magenta (not to be confused with the trans flag), the composite pride flag adds nine black discs on the middle band, in rows of five and four.

@kawa @foone I'm not the biggest fan of this flag. It either triggers my trypophobia, or reminds me of bullet holes. Not sure which though.
