COMAL Corner -- Part 6
===== ====== ==== =
by: Joel Ellis Rea
A while back, I described COMAL and
announced that we would be having a
regular feature called the 'COMAL Cor-
ner' in each issue of LOADSTAR. I
told you a bit about the history of
the language that is so popular in
Europe (actually replacing BASIC in
Denmark and some other countries!) and
gaining such ground here in America
that whole user groups are forming
that are dedicated to Commodore
implementations of COMAL.
This month in COMAL Corner, I will
begin my Tutorial series.
WE INTERRUPT THIS ARTICLE TO BRING
YOU AN IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT! As of
this issue, the Loadstar division of
Softdisk Incorporated is now an offi-
cial distributor of COMAL 0.14! That
means that all ye loyal Loadstar
subscribers can obtain this simple but
fascinating language for only $9.95!!
This is the COMAL 0.14 Sampler Disk,
which contains the language itself,
plus demonstrations, utilities and
other sample programs! We now return
you to your regularly scheduled, er,
program. . . .
This month's COMAL Corner consists
of the following:
COMAL CORNER #6 (you're reading it
right now)
and most importantly,
a BASIC program called 'COMAL
TUTOR'. It assumes NO knowledge of
computers in general or the C-64 in
particular except how to LOAD and RUN
a program from disk. (You already
know how to do that or you wouldn't be
running Loadstar!) You can access the
Tutorial program from this article.
That about wraps it up for this
installment of the COMAL Corner. Be
here next issue for more information
on the wonderful language of COMAL.
Please submit your own COMAL programs
and COMAL-related articles via the
STARLINE and the FEEDBACK DISK.
To run the COMAL TUTOR, press the '\'
\oad "comal tutor",8
key now.
