Atari Journal

The J or Journal series is another public domain series published by an Atari magazine. Atari PD Journal or later Atari Journal was somewhat unique though because the magazine had a heavy emphasis on public domain. Each issue featured „the catalogue“, where public domain programs were reviewed on one or more pages. New additions to the big public domain series were featured in the magazine as well. The emphasis on public domain was toned down in later years. Atari Journal ceased publication with issue 01/93.

Außerdem ist es ein Tool das speziell für die DOS-Emulatoren entwickelt worden ist.

An archiving facility allows up to 30 pictures to be stored in a special archive file. These may be loaded directly into Paintshop + or viewed from within the archive. If GDOS is loaded, the fonts specified in the ASSIGN.SYS file will be available within Paintshop +. Signum fonts and its own font format (three supplied on disk) are also supported. The most important feature with regard to fonts is support for Borland's BGI vector fonts which can be used at any size or any angle. A 'GPL' editor is included which allows small programs to be run from within Paintshop, generating graphic images. Up to three GPL's can be in memory at any time.

  • CHDIR
    Das Programm hat nur einen einzigen Zweck: Es stellt eine Fileselectbox dar, aus der ein Programm ausgewählt und gestartet werden kann. Programme, die es zulassen, andere Programme aus ih- nen heraus zu starten, kümmern sich meistens nicht darum, dass die nachgeladenen Programme meistens noch weitere Dateien nachladen müssen (z.B. ein RSC-File). Hier setzt CHDIR.PRG an: Wenn ein Programm anders nicht nachgeladen werden kann, so sollte zunächst CHDIR.PRG geladen werden. Es erscheint eine Fileselectbox, in der das eigentliche Programm ausgewählt werden kann. Wird die Box mit "OK" verlassen, so schaltet CHDIR.PRG den Standardpfad auf den Ordner des ausgewählten Programms und lädt das Programm nach.
