- TO ATARI 520 ST Owners and Developers:
-
- I am providing this program as a sample application for the Atari 520 ST. It
- originated as a program in monochrome written by Digital Research, Inc. for
- the IBM PC. I added the color and fill functions for the Atari. I have
- included all of the non-copyrighted source code that will help you to
- program your own applications from this sample.
-
- In addition to the files on this disk you will need quite a few copyrighted
- files that are available from Atari Corp. as part of their development
- package.
-
- To compile the program you need the following additional include files:
- define.h
- osbind.h
- portab.h
- obdefs.h
- gemdefs.h
- taddr.h (this may be named treeaddr.h or some such)
- and vdibind.h
-
- To link the program you need:
- apstart (provided)
- osbind
- vdibind
- aesdbind
- and gemlib
-
- I have provided the following files:
-
- doodle.c (the source file in C for doodle.prg)
- doodle.rsc (the GEM resource file for the menus and dialogs)
- doodle.inp (the input file for link.bat to link the program)
- doodle.prg (the final version of the doodle program)
- doodle.def (a data file used by the resource construction set)
- doodle.h (a data file used by the resource construction set)
- doodle.o (the output of the assembler)
- apstart (the first file in the linkage with the program entry)
- c.bat (the batch file I used to compile the program)
- link.bat (the batch file that called doodle.inp to link)
-
- I hope that these will help programmers to come up to speed on the Atari ST.
- This program can be used as the basis for almost any graphics application on
- the ST computers.
-
- If you are not a programmer, I hope that you enjoy the final result.

- It took me approximately three months to learn enough about GEM and C to adapt
- this program to the Atari. If you find the program of value, I would
- appreciate a contribution of $20 for my time and effort.
