- This diskette contains Version 8 of the Icon program library for the Atari ST.
-
- As explained in the accompanying documentation (which is also in listable
- form in tr90-7.doc on the diskette), the library is divided into three
- parts: data, procs (procedures), and progs (complete programs).
-
- An object-oriented version of Icon, called Idol, also is included.
-
- Each is contained in an ARC file. arc.prg from the Atari Icon executables
- diskette can be used to dearchive these files.
-
- For example, running in a command-line processor such as ASH
-
- arc x data.arc
-
- dearchives the data files.
-
- Since environment variables do not work properly with most versions
- of Icon on the Atari ST, you probably will need to have the translated
- procedure files in the same folder as the programs. You can either
- unload procs and progs in the same folder, or place them in separate
- folders and move the .u1 and .u2 files from the procs folder into the
- progs folder before compiling the programs in the progs folder.
-
- The files trans.ash and comp.ash are ASH scripts for translating the
- procedures and compiling the programs, respectively.
