^1@6SHOW FONTS@^2[5 by John Law.[0

^4 This  program  was  sent  in  by  John  Law.  We've had to alter ,it
^4slightly  to  make  it  suitable for this disk.  It looks for all the
^4fonts  on  your disk, then prints the name of the font using the font
^4itself.

^2 Thank you John for being the first reader to send in a program.

^1@6LOGGER LARRY@^2[5 by Aaron Fothergill.[0

^4This  is  one  of  Aaron's famous 10-liners!  It is on the Sprite X
^4disk  which  is  available  to  Amos  Club  members  (from  Déjà Vu
^4Software.)

^6 Larry's task is to progress from the bottom to the top of the screen
^6by  climbing  up  the  diagonally sloping logs.  Just to add more fun
^6there  are  logs rolling down the slopes and some other nasties to be
^6avoided.

^2It's  amazing  what  can be done inside just ten lines!  Any takers
^2for our challenge to write a 10 line game??

^5 Thanks Aaron for letting us publish Logger Larry.

^1@6SPRITE GRABBER@^2[5 by S.Raaiymakers[0

^6Taken from APD

^2These are the original docs that came with this program, the only
^2bits edited out were the diagrams showing how a sprite is grabbed.
^2This was done because they contained some control codes we use to
^2display the text you're reading!
                         
^4 This  is for you, the makers of AMOS and the people of APD.  I, like
^4many  other people, have a version of Deluxe Paint.  I use it to draw
^4all  my  sprites and grab them with the spritegrabber later.  But the
^4sprite-grabber  lacks  a  lot  of functions.  So I changed yours to
^4fulfill my needs.  And here it is.

^6These are the new functions:

^5- AJUST MOUSE.  Makes it possible to reach the entire screen with the
^5pointer.

^5-  DEL.   Deletes  the  spritebank.   To  activate  this,  press both
^5mouse-buttons.  This is to avoid mistakes.

^5-   EXTRA   MEMORY.    Closes   editor,   workbench  and  erases  the
^5PAC-PIC-Bank.  Handy if only you have 512 Kb.

^5- QUIT.  Not new, but here you have to press both mouse-buttons too.

^4- I added a memory-counter.
^4- I made the selection-screen look a bit nicer.
^4-  When  you  press  a  button, you here a sound to indicate that you
^4really DID press it.
^4- When  you  pick up a sprite, you get the sprite that is exactly IN
^4your box.
^4  With  Deluxe  Paint,  they do it my way, which is more logical.
^4- I included  A  counter which shows the total number of sprites.  
^4-   Fast   Search:    When  you  press  the  arrows  with  the  right
^4mouse-button, it makes a step of 5 images.

^2 I  think  a  lot  of  people will be pleased to use this version, so
^2maybe you could include it into the new version of AMOS.

^1@6PUZZLE GAME@^2[5 by S. Raaiymakers. [0

^4 This is a little slide puzzle game that is on one of the source code
^4disks on the PD Library.

^5 You  have a 4 x 4 grid, which has 15 tiles and one space making up a
^5picture which is displayed at the top of the screen.  You move a tile
^5by  clicking on it with the left mouse button, it will then move into
^5the  space,  if possible.  You complete the puzzle when it is back to
^5its original form.  There are 3 options, PLAY, PRACTICE or QUIT.

^2 The  author says that if a message appears at the top of the screen,
^2you can get rid of it by clicking right mouse button.

^1@6BUBBLES@^2[5by Dicon Peeke.[0

^4 Here's  a very handy little routine that you will be able to include
^4in your programs, credit Dicon please, if you do.

^5 It  allows  you  to  create speech bubbles for your characters, like
^5you'd  find in cartoon books.  The bubble is automatically created to
^5be the right size for your message.

^2 Nioe one Dicon, and thanks!
