CONDOR the graphical ANSI.SYS replacment........
YOU MUST HAVE CONDOR.SYS installed for CPAINT to work!
------------------------------------------------------
DELETE the line in your CONFIG.SYS that looks like :
device = ANSI.SYS
ADD a line in your CONFIG.SYS like:
device = CONDOR.SYS
.......................................................
I am releasing this version of Condor Paint to promote
the use of the CONDOR.SYS the graphical ANSI.SYS replacement.
This is the current full working version of CPAINT as of
5-28-93 Without the registered version of CONDOR.SYS
only the 4 leftmost colors in the COLOR selection bar
are available to draw with. I have to reserve something
to try to get users to register. I spent 6 months writing
CONDOR.SYS and $120 in books to get the information to write
it. It should be worth something.
To get the full registered version of CONDOR.SYS ( up to 256 colors supported )
send a check or money order for $28 to :
Larry Mears
11027 Crestfield Dr.
Huntsville, AL 35803
Specify 5.25" HD disk or 3.5" disk.
You will also get the latest version of CPAINT when you order the
registered version of CONDOR.SYS This will be the only release of CPAINT
for free. Updates of CPAINT will be provided to registered CONDOR users only.
NOTE:
-----
Also look for BIG103.ZIP if you want a terminal that will display
CONDOR.SYS graphics online. This terminal requires BNU.SYS or X00.SYS.
Download on the first call from
LAZY Eight BBS 205-837-1681 14400 v.32 bis
BIG103.ZIP and BNU170.ZIP
BIG is a graphics terminal and has great graphics online beyond even Condor
graphics, although BIG graphics are not seen on the SYSOP side. Also BIG
related files (not needed for CONDOR.SYS online displays):
BF102.ZIP offline BIG term graphics viewer
BPAINT05.ZIP a Mouse Painter for BIG term graphics creation
Also MEGAHOST bbs supports BIG terminal graphics and soon CONDOR.SYS graphics
too! MEGAHOST bbs software is available from
ASCII Computer Enterprises 231 Market Place #353 San Ramon, CA 94583
A local sysop tells me that he can see the CONDOR.SYS graphics on the
sysop side using VBBS although VBBS doesn't support alternate menus,
beyond ASCII, ANSI, you can upload CONDOR graphics into the message base.
Alternate graphics menus can be displayed using Remote Access bbs and OPUS with
the LANGUAGE feature of the bbs software. I haven't seen CONDOR.SYS graphics
using OPUS and RA software but if they support ANSI.SYS the CONDOR.SYS
will work in it's place. I have used both OPUS and RA but it's been some time,
I did get them to do the alternate menus for the BIG term graphics.
Be sure to cut off the screen PAUSE every 25 lines on the BBS, the graphics
have to be displayed without that as it injects the pause prompt as
Condor commands causing chaos.
