- This is a collection of simple programs
- I have written over the past two years
- which may be amusing to a young child.
- All programs require a color monitor.
- The programs MIRROR.PRG, TILE1.PRG and
- TILE2.PRG are simple drawing programs.
- By applying simple symmetry operators,
- any scribbling looks interesting.
- COLOR.PRG uses the fill command to
- color outlined areas in a set of
- pictures (COLOR1.PI1, COLOR2.PI2 etc.).
- By superimposing textures, you can get
- interesting looking pictures.
-
- TYPE.PRG gives your child the
- opportunity to use the keyboard of the
- computer. A map of the keyboard is
- displayed on the screen and your child
- presses the letter in red on the
- displayed keyboard. Nothing happens
- unless the correct letter is pressed.
- There are no upper case letters, but
- your child must know about the space
- bar. The sequence of letters pressed,
- form the words to the nursery rhyme
- 'Ba Ba Black Sheep'. The program plays
- part of the tune, each time a verse is
- completed.
-
- NITPICK.PRG displays an array of two
- similar shapped letters (Hebrew letters
- in the higher levels). Using the mouse
- find and click all instances of the
- requested letter. The higher levels
- are difficult for even adults with good
- vision. This program runs in medium
- resolution.
-
- The package of programs and their
- sources (*.LST files) may be treated
- as public domain.
