I'm afraid I have to admit I have something I cannot understand...

How do I use Framework?

I have a sample module...

Module itspeedway.test
'
Import Brl.linkedlist
Import brl.retro
'
ModuleInfo "Author: Si Dunford"
'
Function testmodule$()
Return "Hey its ok"
End Function

The module works fine like this:

Framework itspeedway.test
Print testmodule()

But when I try to use graphics, I get an error, 'Unhandled Exception: Attempt to access field or method of Null object' in module Brl.Max2d - SetBlend()

Framework itspeedway.test
Import brl.max2d
Graphics 800 , 600
SetBlend(ALPHABLEND)
DrawText( testmodule(), 0,0 )

Is there a module I should be including that initialises the graphics object?
