- I haven't bought the AMOSPD CD, but I think I know what's going on here.
- I think some of the demos must not have been entirely possible in AMOS and
- therefore have had parts done in other languages (assembly) for speed. These
- assembly routines can be compiled and included in the program as a procedure
- that cannot be opened (because there are no equivalent AMOS commands to display
- in place of the machine code instructions which now occupy that space). It's
- possible that these procedures are locked or something, but I doubt that
- because the purpose of the CD should be to expose programming techniques to
- others to help out... not hide them.
- Also, if you're interested in AMOS code, let me re-post my WWW page
- which has many AMOS programs in ASCII format:
- http://www.cs.hope.edu/~marty/
- This will bring up an index from which you can select any of my pages including
- my AMOS Programs page. Oh, and if you don't have WWW access, let me know and
- I can send you code directly. If you need a list of what's available, I can
- send you the page that links to all the programs in text format -- it includes
- summaries of each program.
- The above offer goes for anybody else on the list as well. If there
- are enough requests, I can re-post the list of available programs.
