- Here are 3 little routines (Infact very very little) but also very very
- usefull, and I think are the 3 most sorted routines that serious AMOS
- programmers have been crying out for. Let me excuse my self now for this
- short text, It probably wont make sense until youve read it at least 6
- times or so...I hate typing in dox and things!!! ArghgH!GH!GH!GH
-
- OK,
-
- Briefly this is what they do....
-
- DOSCALL.AMOS - This allows you to call any program without leaving AMOS,
- ie, DIR or LIST or LHARC or JR-COMM or ANYTHING!!!!!!!!!!
- It uses a small machine code routine that i wrote which is
- very simple but always very hard if ya dont know machine/c!
-
-
- REMOTE-SHELL - This is similar to DOSCALL except this returns the results
- from the command, ie, if you type DIR then you see your
- directory listing on the AMOS screen and it can be read in &
- things like that, Please note that this is not a 100% remote
- shell but its not bad, It uses the PIPE: device, so make sure
- you MOUNT PIPE: first else it wont work...See ya manual for
- more details......
-
- WINDOW.AMOS - Ok, This lets you open windows on the standard workbench
- windows, it also allows you to type text in and for it to be
- transfered back to the AMOS program, so now if ya writing a
- utility, then EVERYTHING can be done on the normal W/B screen
-
-
- I do have stacks of other routines which ive written but an be bothered to
- gather them together, things like outputting text the the actual CLI window
- is easy to do and other such related things, or transfering text from 1 AMOS
- program to the other quickly and fastly, etc etc....
-
- If you are stuck on any aspect of programming, Not just AMOS, then let me
- know and ill do what i can to help, no promises but as long as i dont have
- to sit down and code for 3493 weeks (Would i be dead then!!?) then ill help
- you out....You can contact me by mailing STEPHEN ARNOLD on either
- 071 For Amiga or Cheam Amiga, My name is actually Mark Arnold but use
- Stephen Arnold on the BBS systems of this world! Weird world as wel!!?!??!
-

- be freely distributed as long as no profit is made from it...
