- TITLE: FELIX - GRAPHICS ANAMATION SYSTEM
-
- FELIX is a "simple" computer graphics animation system.
-
- It is based upon a pseudo-language for graphics, with an
- assembler, subroutines, utilities, sample programs, etc. Ex:
- BEE.FAS: a flower blooms, bee settles on it, flies off, a bird
- eats the bee, then continues flying around.
-
- Felix was written for use with the Cromemco TV Dazzler, and
- D+7A with 2 joysticks. "A few routines... rely on [these]...
- you are invited to explore the source code". (so they say)
-
- FELIX.DOC and a catalog file supply some information, but
- the "real" documentation must be ordered for $10 from the
- university of Tenn. A second disk is also available for $10.
-
- The code is well commented. It consists of many .ASM files
- which must be loaded - and use absolute memory JMPS. Requires
- a fairly large system - some ORGs go to 5800H. Not just a .COM
- file here folks - you have to like to diddle with DDT and HEX.
-
- Abstracted by Ward Christensen. I did not have access to
- the necessary equipment to actually run the code.
