Prophet VS Diagnostic Easter Egg

For people who have gone through the VS assembly code (or even just the ASCII in the *.bin file) it is rather common knowledge that within the table of display text there is a chunk that reads:

'I LOVE SUZY, JON'
' AND JASMINE ! 

One thing I think people don't realize is that in r1.0/r1.1, each with more extensive diagnostics than r1.2, there is a way to have that message pop up on the LCD screen.

In the diagnostic main menu loop there is some extra code not in r1.2 (highlighted):


Btst #5 and #6 corresponds to buttons "Name" and "Enter" respectively, and they are used to select which diagnostic to run. Btst #1 corresponds to "Master Tune" and will branch to a routine that displays the message as long as the button is held down.



Not terribly useful but fun to know!
