Hello,
Here you've got a little nice program - Simple Pleasures.
( --- Shareware --- )
Written for Studio str., Warsaw, Poland
It's only purpose is to generate vector shapes - polygons, stars,
"splashes" and "flowers" (try to select "SPLASH" when it's
already selected - eh?). Maybe you have experienced that it's not
quite easy to construct a hexagon using ordinary vector editor -
this program makes it in a fraction of a second. And what about
stars and even more fancy Bezier "splashes"? Too! Shapes are then
exported as a CVG file. I haven't included options for selecting
fill colour, dimensions, patterns etc. - you'll can do it better
in Calamus. Besides, writing this program took me some six hours
in the night, then I have spent another hour to add splash and
flower shapes, and to test the whole thing.
Short explanation on parameters:
# is a number of edges/arms (?)
% is an inner diameter in % of the outer (not for polygons)
° is a start angle in degrees (clockwise from "12 o'clock")
Simple Pleasures can work as a desk accessory and as PRG. It
proved to work on a TT-mono, Mega STE, TT+C110ZV and TT+TC1208
systems (on the last one menu gets "dirty" - sorry, it's GfA
Basic - but it doesn't disturb almost at all).
When in Calamus, remember:
"Save early,
Save often!"
I'd be grateful for any notices on Simple Pleasures.
With compliments,
Michal Setlak
