Spliner
A Spline Screen Blanker Commodity
Graphics by Tom Rokicki
User Interface and Docs by Sebastiano Vigna
Tom Rokicki's Mackie is one of the most well-known and most beautiful
utilities for the Amiga. It has two separate functionalities: it's a
blanker which draws wonderful splines, and a powerful hot-key manager.
What I did was taking out the spline code from the original Mackie sources
and encapsulate it in a standard Commodity (of course, this means someone
else will have to port the hot-key part...).
Commodities are the new way, designed by Commodore, by which all special
utilities like mouse accelerators, macro expanders etc. should be
designed. This standard, available *only* under 2.0, allows easy
and customizable control of the interaction of different utilities.
This means, of course, that Spliner will work only under 2.0.
In the process of moving to 2.0, some new features were added, namely
programmable pattern change timeout, and the possibily to open the blank
screen in *any* of the modes available on your Amiga.
