- Turtle graphics prog developed with a couple of friends from an old beeb
- prog. It comes complete with a number of files of procedures (let's call
- them microworlds) to get folks off the ground (particularly in schools).
- Freely copiable (a number of schools currently use it, and find it
- valuable)
-
- Procedures can be written in !Edit
- Supports use of variables (but not conditional statements)
- Easy printing (uses Hardcopy module)
- Manual on disc (Impression doc)
-
- TO USE
-
- Load it from root directory
- Load a file of procedures eg planets / trigrid
-
- *********** then type INFO ************
-
- (most of the files of procedures work in this way)
-
- This should give you an idea of what it can do
-
- PROBLEMS
-
- It has a couple of not-insurmountable problems
-
- Procedures containing oscli commands cannot be saved from within !Turtle
- (instead enter them in Edit)
-
- I've not found it possible to delete all of the procedures at once.
- Consequently, the best way of clearing out the program (at present) is
- to quit and start up again.
