I just read in GenieLamp that Alan Bird allows us to distribute our software
with the compiler.system now. That means that I may now distribute freely all
my compiled-Applesoft software to Apple II users!
This is some of the software I planned to release:
KeyWin Demo - A program to demonstrate the window interface routines I wrote
called KeyWin. The name derived from Keyboard Window - the
program originally runs with keyboard only, and mouse support
is added later to all KeyWin series.
KeyWin Othello - My favorite KeyWin program. An othello game that supports 3
difficulty levels, allow user vs user, user vs computer and
computer vs computer (even among different difficulty levels),
shows mobility and valid positions, etc. Written for two
years.
KeyWin Checkers - Asean Checkers - where the king can fly. 90% completed
because the king behaves stupidly.
KeyWin Life - Game of Life. Computer or User generated.
KeyWin System = Program Launcher for KeyWin series.
KeyWin Write - A 80% completed word processor. The only things that is not
there is cut/copy/paste.
All KeyWin programs are compiled Applesoft programs. Runs perfectly for
Apple //e and above (enhanced perfered - but KeyWin will use simulated
MouseText if system does not support MouseText). Tested with unenhanced
Apple IIe, Apple //c (works perfectly because KeyWin is developed with it)
and Apple IIGS (has some problems in mouse but still works)
But before I uploads I wish to know:
1) Can I upload the ProDOS file? That is, can I upload a bootable system?
2) Can I assume you have harddisk? That is, should I assume you have more
that 140K of storage? In this way, I can put everything in one file and
fully organize for you.
3) If I wish to upload one program first, which one do you wish to see?
4) Are you interested in my other older software? Like Easy Write - a finished
word processor? Easy Type - a type writer program? Or my DOS 3.3 goodies?
Dear Apple II users, I do not intent to make my program shareware. All these
programs takes a long time to develop, and I even spent about an hour
yesterday to dig up all my old 5.25" disks, clean them, installed my 5.25"
drive and test each programs on my GS. I expect you to at least have the
courtesy to gives me a reply to the above questions, or else I don't see why I
bother to do the uploading if no one is interested.
btw, Dear Apple IIGS users, thanks to your letters on Mandelbrot II GS! A new
version will be out after I convert the software to Orca platform. Thanks!
