AMOS IntOS - Shopper cover disk marvel.
Ever keen to promote the expanding boundaries of the Amiga the
guys at Amiga Shopper occasionally went way far and beyond the
call of duty in providing some real gems . Today I feature just
a couple of their best scoops.
'IntOS is an intuition extension for the BASIC programming language
AMOS. It adds over 120 new commands to the already bulging AMOS
command set. Once you have installed IntOS these new commands enable
you to easily open real intuition screens and windows and give you
full control over gadgets and menus. IntOS opens a whole new world
to budding utility and application programmers keen to conform to
the Amiga's Intuition standards'.
Next up how to display an AGA image in AMOS.
'AMOS does not directly support AGA graphics, but your Amiga A1200/
4000 does, and that's good enough. All we need to do is use AMOS
Pro's "Exec" instruction to execute an external program like PPShow
or ViewTek. In fact, we can display virtually any format of picture,
as long as we have an external displayer program that accepts
arguments. So, here is the three-line listing I used to display a
GIF image taken from a PC CD-ROM:
Amos To Back
Exec "df0:c/ppshow CAR.GIF"
Amos To Front
As simple as that ....
