STOSSER Issue #2 (May 1993)

WELCOME TO STOSSER

ISSUE 2:MAY 93

This diskzine has been written in STOS and is for STOS users. It is a monthly public domain program available from most decent P.D.Libraries. The diskzine will be available from no later than the 20th of each month.

If anyone would like to write an article or review for me then please send it to KEEFY and not the P.D. libraries. It will have to be on disk in ASCII and be 39 characters across (low rez) and arrive by the 1st of the month to make the diskzine. Adverts ,Contacts etc must arrive no later than the 10th of the month and again to my home. You will find my address on the scroller screen.

Each issue I make will have a different shell. I will give away the source to each issue in the following month’s diskzine. Therefore, you will find the source to the previous issue on this disk. Every month I will fill the disk with items that hopefully will be of use to just about every one. There will be basic routines (not full games just handy little routines), music, fonts, acbs, etc. So if this is your first copy of STOSSER, then you have probably missed some good stuff from other issues, and I recommend you send off for some back issues NOW!!

I receive help every month with this diskzine by way of articles, reviews, routines to give away, ideas and  program checking from the following:

Steve Gooding
Ian Holden
Martin Cubitt
Keith Dunn
Matthew Green
Mike Goodman
Dion Guy
William Morrison
Julie Worden (blimey a female)

(hope I didn’t miss anyone).

All issue’s are written in STOS BASIC with the MISTY extension. Also used are CANVAS and FIRST WORD.

Many thanks for using STOSSER. I hope you found it of some use and it now becomes a regular buy. If you like it then let me know but most important let everyone else know. Spread it about!

Tony Greenwood…………..Bye!

About author View all posts Author website

Neil Halliday

Neil started coding in STOS in 1989 just after it was released in the UK.

During those 31 years he has written numerous demo screens, routines, games and extensions, most of which are now lost due to a massive hard disk crash. What remains on floppy disk is still being discovered and posted on the STOS Coders website and stored in the cloud for everybody to enjoy (or laugh at).

Neil is the author of the GBP Extension which added some pretty cool commands to STOS, along with the "Development" extension that enabled enhanced STE functionality, including probably one of the simplest hardware scrolling routines around.

Along with Bruno Azzara, Geoff Harrison and Mike Halliday we had loads of fun back in the day trying to push STOS to it's limits. We are all now enjoying bringing our knowledge to a new generation of STOS Coders.
