What kind of software will work with Picasso96?
All programs that handle their graphics using standard system calls and
do not modify the graphics memory directly bypassing the operating system.
Direct software support for applications is available in the Picasso96
distribution namely for:
- 'Art Department Professional' (by ASDG),
- Photogenics (by Almathera),
- XiPaint (24bit paint program by Thomas Dorn and Herbert Beilschmidt).
Further modules are being developed. Most programs using the CyberGraphX
API or the vilintuisup.library work with Picasso96, too, e.g. CyberWindow.
The number of applications that directly support Picasso96 is constantly
growing:
- Fusion (Apple Macintosh emulator by Microcode Solutions),
- ShapeShifter (Apple Macintosh emulator by Christian Bauer),
- rtgmaster.library (graphics board API for game programmers),
- AmiWin (X server for the Amiga by Holger Kruse)
If you are an application programmer who wants his application to show
up here then please tell me to do so!
Also available are patches for various applications:
- Photogenics:
fixes problem with Hi- and TrueColor screens which are opened with
a depth of 0.
