Short: NCS V1.85 - 23 new Blitz Basic II libs to give it a second life...
Author: alphasnd@sdv.fr (Laboureur Frederic)
Uploader: alphasnd@sdv.fr (Laboureur Frederic)
Version: 1.85
Type: dev/basic
Replace: NewCommandSet.lha
Imagine... Use your Blitz 2 compiler to produce very small and very
fast executables, without lot of changes... This dream is reality.
This new set includes 23 libraries:
Window (Window replacement library)
Screen (Screen replacament library)
Chunky (New library, for chunky manipulation)
Misc (Some commands replacement)
Memory (Memory based commands replacement)
String (String based commands replacement)
ASL (ASL Library management)
Font (Font library replacement)
GadTools (For creating good looking interfaces)
Locale (Catalog support for localized programs)
Picture (IFF/ILBM library replacement, very fast)
Drawing (2D Drawing stuffs, system friendly)
BitMap (BitMap routine replacement)
Palette (Palette functions with FadeOut routine)
XPK (Easy XPK support)
WBStartup (New WbStartup library for even small exe)
Clipboard (Easy Amiga clipboard support for text)
App (For supporting AppWindows and AppMenu)
OS (OS functions)
TagList (TagList easy handling)
Commodity (Commodity handling)
ToolTypes (Easy icons tooltypes handling)
With this set, you will able to produce under 3 kb executables which open
a screen, some windows and more :). Normal executables would have take
more than 30 kb to do the same.
And better, you can now check every importants commmands result, so you will
be able to check if the window or the screen is really opened.
All the commands are now FULLY system friendly, not like old Acid ones :(.
It has a very easy installer script which can do all the installation alone.
