AMOS Professional Misc Extension
|
||
|
|
--------------------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
This extension should originally be shareware, but now AMOS won't be
|
||
|
|
updated and it's a bit old too. So this extension is now Public Domain
|
||
|
|
and includes source code (written in DevPac assembler). You may expand
|
||
|
|
this extension or copy some routines to the code of your extension, but
|
||
|
|
please, enter my name in the manual, such like: "Greetings to Frank Otto"
|
||
|
|
or "some routines from Misc Extension by Frank Otto". Thanks!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Maybe you already noticed that this extension is very buggy. Some commands
|
||
|
|
force AMOS to crash. Maybe I'll create a new version, but why don't you?
|
||
|
|
Just debug this extension and send it to Aminet. Do what you want with it,
|
||
|
|
it's Public Domain!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
OK, to install it to AMOS Pro, just copy the "AMOSPro_Misc.Lib" to your
|
||
|
|
APSystem folder, load the Interpreter config and enter at number 23
|
||
|
|
"AMOSPro_Misc.Lib". Reboot AMOS Pro and...ready...!
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Now the new commands:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Dled On Turns on drive led, don't ask me, where
|
||
|
|
this is for, but maybe when the drive led
|
||
|
|
doesn't stop reading, use the next command.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Dled Off Turns off drive led.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Display Off Turns display off. What you do, opening
|
||
|
|
screens etc., you don't see anything.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Display On Turns on display.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Multi Off Turns off Multitasking and increases about
|
||
|
|
10 % speed.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Multi On Turns Multitasking on. --WARNING-- you have to
|
||
|
|
turn it on again before you go back to the
|
||
|
|
editor or AMOS will crash.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Mouse Off Hides mouse and sprite 0. Better than "hide"
|
||
|
|
because the mouse is hidden forever, even in
|
||
|
|
the editor.
|
||
|
|
-->Suggestion: If you want to expand this
|
||
|
|
extension, why not make a "Mouse On" command?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Reset Resets your Amiga as if you press Ctrl+A+A and
|
||
|
|
destroys all (?) viruses.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Clear Ram Cleans up Memory by deleting all not-used
|
||
|
|
fonts, libs, etc.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Disk Wait Waits until you insert a new disk.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Firewait Waits until pressing fire button. Nothing else
|
||
|
|
than "While Fire(1)=0 : Wend" but more effective,
|
||
|
|
cause it's in assembler. A great command for
|
||
|
|
a pause function in a game.
|
||
|
|
-->Suggestion: You can make more wait-commands that
|
||
|
|
wait for left-mouse, right-,...
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Pal On Forces AMOS to display everything in PAL
|
||
|
|
This command is not ready yet, it's very
|
||
|
|
buggy and forces AMOS to crash, so be careful!
|
||
|
|
-->Suggestion: debug this command and add "Pal Off"
|
||
|
|
command that switches to Ntsc.
|
||
|
