\C[ClipArts/pinnen.Chnk]
\2I was asked to write some words about the code in this mag, and so I did. The main coding was done by me, i.e. the input handler, the interrupt handling and the clipart support. When speaking of cliparts, I would like you to notice that they use quite a lot of colours. The clipart routine is designed to convert the cliparts in a way so that they use all of the possible pens free on the screen. A maximum of 233 pens can be used in each article, each article can have any amount of cliparts included as long as there is free pens.
I would like to give special credits to \1S.Duvan\2 of \1Citron.\2 for coding the text formatting routine for me and \1Scout/C-Lous\2 for helping me out with various problems I had during the development of this mag. \1Frame/C-Lous\2 was also a very big helping hand, always giving me fresh new ideas of what to implement.
The mag can be totally controlled by keyboard, and I personally think that is a very good feature, not needing to reach for your mouse all the time. Arrow keys at the index page controls mouse movement sideways and up/down in index. If you press Shift+Arrow Down, you reach the bottom border and you can now use the arrow keys to move between the gadgets. Pressing Shift+Arrow Up again moves you back into the index/text area of the screen.
