- Short: NCS V1.80 - 21 new Blitz Basic II libs to give it a second life...
- Author: alphasnd@sdv.fr (Laboureur Frederic)
- Uploader: alphasnd@sdv.fr (Laboureur Frederic)
- Version: 1.80
- Type: dev/basic
- Replace: NewCommandSet.lha
-
- Imagine... Use your Blitz 2 compiler to produce very small and very
- fast executables, without lot of changes... This dream is reality.
-
- This new set includes 21 libraries:
-
- Window (Window replacement library)
- Screen (Screen replacament library)
- Chunky (New library, for chunky manipulation)
- Misc (Some commands replacement)
- Memory (Memory based commands replacement)
- String (String based commands replacement)
- ASL (ASL Library management)
- Font (Font library replacement)
- GadTools (For creating good looking interfaces)
- Locale (Catalog support for localized programs)
- Picture (IFF/ILBM library replacement, very fast)
- Drawing (2D Drawing stuffs, system friendly)
- BitMap (BitMap routine replacement)
- Palette (Palette functions with FadeOut routine)
- XPK (Easy XPK support)
- WBStartup (New WbStartup library for even small exe)
- Clipboard (Easy Amiga clipboard support for text)
- App (For supporting AppWindows and AppMenu)
- OS (OS functions)
- TagList (TagList easy handling)
- Commodity (Commodity handling)
-
- With this set, you will able to produce under 3 kb executables which open
- a screen, some windows and more :). Normal executables would have take
- more than 30 kb to do the same.
-
- And better, you can now check every importants commmands result, so you will
- be able to check if the window or the screen is really opened.
-
- All the commands are now FULLY system friendly, not like old Acid ones :(.
-
- It has a very easy installer script which can do all the installation alone.
-
- * NEW in V1.80 **************************************************************

- Added debugger support, so no more crashs should appends when
- developping a program with the debugger ON.

- + NASL library
- + NBitMap library

-
- Bug Fixes:

- + NLocale : 2 major bugs (library wasn't closed to the end and bad
- adresse was given to CloseCatalog())
- + NTagList: NAddTag() command.
-
- NWbStartup:
- + Now return '0' if started from CLI and the pointer to the
- WBMessage else.. So you can know from where is started your
- proggy.
- + Changed the library number from 159 to 199 to fix one bug
- when the program end... (sometimes).
