I obtained the following announcement from a fellow Capital PC User
Group (CPCUG) member at the last OS/2 SIG meeting. He asked me to post
it here. Sounds like fun.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Proposed OS/2 Programming Contest
$100 cash awarded to the winner.
Goal: Program a "twinkle" using an OS/2 2.0 PM thread.
Definition: A twinkle is a screen graphic thread that displays some
"cute" animation on the screen. For example: a bouncing ball, a top
spinning, a man walking, fireworks, etc.
Judging: The winner will be selected on the basis (in order of
importance) of:
1. Meeting the above goal.
2. The quality of the code. This includes readability, as well as
appearance, understandability, and comments (The comments should be at
the level of an experienced DOS programmer).
3. The artistry of the graphic display.
Timeframe: Entries must be submitted on diskette by the August 1992 OS/2
SIG meeting. The winner will be announced at the September OS/2 SIG
meeting.
Considerations:
1. Entries must be original works.
2. All entries will be available to all entrants.
3. Some of the entries may be published in the monitor.
4. If the winner is not a CPCUG member, part of the prize money will be
used to purchase a membership.
Employees of Rhintek and their families are not eligible.
All entries become the property of Rhintek.
The decisions of the judges are final.
