GAMEV COMPLETES THE F3 (OR F3V) LANGUAGE WITH SOME KEY EXTENSIONS FOR A NEW TYPE OF CARTOON-LIKE GAMES WITH CURVEART, WHILE RETAINING COMPATIBILITY WITH ALL PROGRAMS LISTED HERE; THE DOSBOXEX.ZIP WILL BE UPDATED WITH IT AND THE FIRTHUP.TXT WILL TELL HOW TO START IT IN ADDITION, AN ENORMOUS LIGHTWEIGHT BROWSER, GAMEVB, FOR INTERNET IS RELEASED -- IN A FREE VERSION (FOR UBUNTU ETC) SUITABLE FOR SAFE BROWSING OF IMAGES AND SOME READING OF SIMPLE TEXT PAGES FORMATTED ALONG THE LINES OF YOGA6D.ORG -- HOWEVER THE LOOK WILL BE ENTIRELY FRESH AND ADAPTED TO B9 FONTS, WHILE FOR NET SAFETY REASONS WE'LL ONLY ALLOW CLICKING ON LINKS IN IT (PLAIN HTML), RATHER THAN ANY TYPING IN. NEXT ESSAY WITH PROGRAM EXAMPLE THEN CONCERNS GAMEV (IN ITS 3 FLAVOURS) SPECIFICALLY -- AND COMES, THEN, AFTER OCTOBER 10, 2012. 1::A::2012::3::24 ITALIC.TXT IS LIKE BOLD.TXT (JUST BENEATH) ARRYTHMIC AND CAN BE USED WHERE B9 IS USED, SAME WAY. (SEE EXAMPLE FROM A P.G. WODEHOUSE BOOK WITH THIS FONT:)
THIS AND NEXT IS INCLUDED FROM NOW ON IN UPCOMING
F3 (INCL GAMEV) DOSBOXEX.ZIP LANGUAGE PACKAGE. HERE: italic.zip.
1::A::2012::3::23 BOLD.TXT GIVES ANY PROGRAM USING OUR B9
A NEWLY MADE ARRYTHMIC STRONG-READABLE FONT, AS AN ALTERNATIVE
(SEE EXAMPLE FROM A JAMES BOND BOOK WITH THIS FONT:)
TO ENABLE, ENSURE YOU HAVE A BACKUP OF THE MAIN B9FONT
FIRST, THEN UNZIP THE bold.zip IN THE ACTIVE DIRECTORY
(WHICH IS boehm\boehmian OR, IN THE FUTURE, gamev),
AND IN FIRTH YOU CAN DO THIS BY E.G. THESE LINES:
COPY B9FONT.TXT B9
UNZIP BOLD
COPY BOLD.TXT B9FONT.TXT
It is now active -- or you can have a program switch
back and forth between fonts, this is easy enough,
see examples -- e.g. the Yoga4d game at yoga4d.org/talks.
It will work in B9, in the SEE program (shown above).
It can be used in the MAKEHTM application -- etc.
To set the usual B9 font back, go to the main folder and:
COPY B9 B9FONT.TXT
Confirm 'overwrite y/n' for the above COPY's. Good luck!!!
1::A::2012::3::15 MAKEHTM IS A 1ST-HAND WARE/SERVICE DATABASE (DB) THAT
GENERATES A PROFESSIONAL HTM NET CATALOGUE (EXTEND TO NETSHOP). IT IS
EXCESSIVELY USER-FRIENDLY AND CAN MAKE LEARNING ADVANCED F3V (& GAMEV)
A JOY. IT'S HERE: MAKEHTM.TXT
ACKNOWLEDGING THE SPIRITED ARTISTIC TUMBLR.COM USERS,
MAKEHTM IN A COUPLE OF MINUTES OF PLAY MADE THIS.
1::A::2012::3::8 A VARIATION OVER WTFIRTH, "WTFRUIT", ALLOWS
EASIER DRAWING WHEN HOLDING THE MOUSECLICK IS NEEDLESS
EFFORT. IT'S HERE: WTFRUIT.TXT
1::A::2012::2::26 SO HERE IS WILDTONE, WT, FREE FROM ANY
PAUSES, BLINKING WILDLY GREEN FOR STIMULATION WHILE DRAWING:
WTFIRTH.TXT, START LOVELY FIRTH WITH
F3V, THE NEW STANDARD COMMAND TO START F3, OR THE LISA GJ2 FIC3
LANGUAGE. DO PLS USE AN EXTREMELY WELL-TUNED MOUSE, AND OFTEN
CLICK CTR-F TO CLEAR SCREEN AND THEN OFTEN CTR-D TO SAVE EACH
CHANGE IN THIS FIRST-HAND COMPUTER DRAWING PROGRAM UTILITY TOOL.
AN EXTENSION, CALLED CURVEART, TO LIGHT3D IS BEING BUILT WHICH
IS INSPIRED BY WT. EXPECT NEWS NEXT SEASON ON THIS.
1::A::2012::2::13 LUCK IS 13! NOW WT WORKS FULLY
IN VIRTUALIZATION MODE. CHECK OUT NEW MAIN dosboxex.zip
AS YOU'LL FIND AT BOTH norskesites.org/fic3 & moscowsites.org/fic3
***>>>GAME.TXT AND THIS AS A PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE OF ITS
OWN RIGHT, IN A WAY, COMPOSED OF F3 PLUS LIGHT3D.TXT (WITH
EXAMPLE GAMES) IS PROMISED AND WILL COME. HOWEVER, THE GAME
NON-SIMULATION PROGRAMMING LANGUAGE, WHICH ENCOURAGES
THE MIND OF THE INTERACTOR WITH EACH GAME TO BECOME
GOOD AND ARDENT AT LOVELY REAL-LIFE VISUALISATION
BY DOING JUST A BRIEF HINT OF 3D IN THE VIVID CONTEXT
OF THE LIGHT3D.TXT 3D ENGINE INSIDE THE GAME LISA GJ2
FIC3 LANGUAGE, WAS PERHAPS MOSTLY SUITED TOBE STARTED IN
A FIRTH-PLATFORM RUNNING DOZENS OF TIMES FASTER THAN
A DOSBOX. FOR THAT REASON WE HAVE DELAYED THE RELEASE
UNTIL WE GET AROUND TO OPTIMALISE JUST ENOUGH THAT
GAME.EXE WILL BE FAST ENOUGH, BUT NOT OPTIMALISED SO MUCH
THAT THERE WILL BE ANY ISSUE WITH FIRST-HANDEDNESS. WE
PROTECT THE FIRST-HANDEDNESS OF THE GAME PROGRAMMING
LANGUAGE BY FAITHFULLY IMPLEMENTING BITS OF LIGHT3D.TXT
NEARER MACHINE LANGUAGE -- CHANGING NOTHING OF THE CODE.
MEANWHILE, FOR ABOUT A SEASON, EXPECT OTHER DEVELOPMENTS,
INCLUDING ELSKETCH'ES AND ESSAYS HERE. THEN WE'LL GET
AROUND TO THE LISA GJ2 FIC3 GAME EXTENSION, INCLUDE IT
IN THE STANDARD RELEASE, AND PROCEED FURTHER WITH ELSKETCH'ES
ESSAYS W/PROGRAMS AND ALSO WITH GAMES. THE S.E.C.S. -- STAMASH
EDUCATIONAL CENTERS -- WILL HAVE GAME ACTIVITIES, ALSO.
THE ARGUMENT FOR CONCEEDING A BIT OF OPTIMALISATION IS
THAT ENTERTAINMENT HAS ITS OWN SPEED JUST AS THE
FLUENCY OF FICTION MUST BE GREATER THAN THAT REQUIRED
OF A PHILOSOPHICAL PIECE OF WORK, WITH MORE ATTENTION
TO GRAMMAR SO AS TO SPEED UP THE SENSE OF HUMOUR.
***>>>PERHAPS NOT AS MUCH AS A 'WORKAROUND', BUT MORE A
USEFUL HINT WHEN DOSBOX IS RUN E.G. ON FEDORA LINUX: LOOK
FOR UPPERCASE AND LOWERCASE WHEN YOU TAKE FILES IN AND
OUT OF DOSBOX, -- REMEMBER DOSBOX READS THE FILE DIRECTORY
DURING EACH STARTUP, AND WHEN YOU TYPE RESCAN AND IT TREATS
LOWERCASE FILES WITH EQUAL COURTESY & INDIFFERENCE AS
UPPERCASE FILES. WHEN YOU EDIT A FILE, AND BOTH LOWERCASE
AND UPPERCASE FILENAMES ARE PRESENT, IT IS ANYONE'S GUESS
ONE IT'LL PICK, AND WHICH ONE IT WILL OVERWRITE. THE RULE
OF THUMB IS THEN: KEEP IT SIMPLE, AND CHECK THAT ONLY
ONE CASE IS PRESENT IN THE boehm/boehmian FOLDER WHEN CALLING
IT BY MEANS OF CASE-SENSITIVE FILE HANDLING ROUTINES.
***>>>TWO WORK-AROUNDS HAVE BEEN REPORTED. (1) FOR XXX.TXT
AND XXXLT.TXT, IF YOU START BY OPENING A TEXT, THEN
DO STH LIKE CTR-R ON ALL LINES, THEN CTR-W PERHAPS,
THEN TYPE, LINES MAY GET MESSY. SOLUTION: AFTER CTR-R
ESP ON A TEXT BEYOND ITS COMPLETION, DO LINESHIFTS
IN PROFUSION, THEN GO UP AND TYPE. THE LINESHIFTS AFFIRM
THE 'END-OF-DOCUMENT' VARIABLE TO STH MEANINGFUL.
(2) THE WT.TXT AND PROFILE.TXT DRAWING PROGRAMS DO STILL
HAVE AN ISSUE WITH DOSBOX RELATED TO MOUSE-POINTER UPDATE
AND SPEED OF OTHER GRAPHICS UPDATES, SO AS TO CAUSE SOME
SUDDEN PROGRAM EXITS. THIS DOES NOT OCCUR WITH SAME PROGRAMS
EXACTLY RUN NATIVELY. SOLUTION: TRY TO TUNE IT, AS
INDICATED. IT IS LIKELY TO WORK BETTER WITH A FASTER
PC, AND BETTER WITH FULLSCREEN MODE. DOSBOX IS
TYPICALLY GIVING RIGHT FULLSCREEN MODE ON MORE
WINDOWS MACHINES THAN ON LINUX MACHINES, BUT
I EXPECT THE SITUATION TO IMPROVE IN FUTURE LINUXES.
I AM WORKING ON NEW HARDWARE IDEAS FOR MORE NATIVE
USES OF DRAWING IN WT AND SKETCHING WITH LIGHT3D
AND MORE SUCH, NATURALLY WITH 1024*768 LED DISPLAY.
GREEN-ONLY MONITOR, OF COURSE. WILL COME BACK WITH
INFO ON THIS AFTER MUCH MORE WORK. THE ELSKETCH
WILL BE RELEASED (WITH MANY DIFFERENCES COMPARED TO
PROTOTYPE VIEW OF IT AS I HAVE BEFORE RELEASED).
IT IS PART OF THE THINKING ON HARDWARE WHICH WILL
RUN A FIRTH-LIKE DOS THAT I CALL "MAXIDOS". MORE
ESSAYS SOON. BUT WILL RELEASE GAME.TXT WITH EXAMPLE
GAME FIRST, AND WE ARE TESTING IT PROFOUNDLY FIRST.
THIS WILL BE AS ANTI-SIMULATION AS CAN BE, BUT
STIMULATING AND ENTERTAINING TO THOSE WITH SENSITIVE MINDS.
***>>>YOU WANT TO OPEN UP DOSBOX WITH A SMALLER
SCREEN SIZE WHEN DOING TEXT EDITING IN THE B9-
INSPIRED WAY? HERE'S THE GRAND NEW SOLUTION FOR YOU!!!
SO, HERE'S TWO USEFUL TEXT-MODE PROGRAMS: SNAPPY TEXT
EDITORS THAT PROVIDE A B9-FEEL IN ALL EXCEPT FONT.
THE norskesites.org/XXXLT.TXT STARTS IN F3 LIKE
A NORMAL PROGRAM, BUT YOU CAN ALSO, INSIDE F3 DOSBOX,
WRITE STH LIKE :MYTEXT :XXXLT IN
AND IT WILL SHOW A BRIGHT SCREEN, MAX 7500 LINES PR
TEXT (THEREBY THE 'LT', LIGHT AND LITE).
THE norskesites.org/XXX.TXT IS EXACTLY THE
SAME BUT VASTLY MORE LINES -- 51000 (78 CHAR WIDTH),
AND IS MORE EXOTIC IN SPRING GREEN FONT ON BLACK.
SOMEWHAT MORE RAPID MOVEMENTS ON XXXLT. LEARN B9 FIRST,
AS IT SPEAKS LESS ABOUT ITS CTR-KEYS, WHICH ARE MOSTLY
THE SAME: PROGRAM HAS MUCH THE SAME CODE AS B9.
***>>>ESSAY ON PERCEPTION AND THE BRAIN
-- WITH A GIANT BUT ELEGANT FLEXIBLE WARP-ORIENTED F3
PROGRAM HANDLING ALL SORTS OF CONNECTIONIST FEATURE
DETECTOR WORKS FOR PATTERN RECOGNITION AND INTELLIGENCE,
SUCH AS CAN HOLISTICALLY ALSO FIND BOTH FACES IN PROFILE
AND VASE AND STYLISH COOKER IN ONE IMAGE

AND HERE essay20111112-b.jpg.
NOTE THAT THIS LONG AND USEFUL AND, WE HAVE TO ADMIT,
INTELLIGENTLY MADE PATMAT18.TXT PROGRAM IN ABOVE ESSAY CONTAINS
READABLE IMPORTNAT ADDITIONS TO THE MTDOC MANUAL ALSO ABOUT
WARPS AND SINGLE-LETTER FUNCTIONS. THE DECISION HAS BEEN MADE
TO KEEP GAME.TXT, UPCOMING IN NEXT DATED ITEM ABOVE,
SIMPLE AND WITHOUT ANY NATURAL LANGUAGE BIT SO THAT
IT IS CLEAR THAT WE INTEND FIRST-HANDED STIMULATION IN GAMES.
HOWEVER: WE SEE CLEARLY THAT, WITH EXCEEDINGLY GREAT CARE,
NON-SIMULATION STIMULATION GAMES C A N BE MADE
ALSO WITH NATURAL LANGUAGE HANDLED BY A PATMATnn EXTENSION.
THIS IS IN CASE SOMETHING YOU DO YOURSELF. GOOD LUCK WITH PATMATs!

which in its most ripe form is called
G15 YOGA6DORG programming language.
