- TCPI/IP network support! So that it can be used to write network
- games. An implementation of sockets communication would be
- ideal..
-
- File sharing and locking! So that the TCP/IP thingo can also
- transmit and update config files on the fly without crashing the
- AMOS app.
-
- A better debugger which supports multiple breakpoints, multiple
- variable watchpoints, etc.
-
- A date/time set and read functions would be great too.. it's such a
- pain to have to use the Operating system with its bizarre BCPL
- calling conventions to get and set the real time clock.
-
- What else? Dunno.. that should be heaps for a start!
