Robert Buckley from Kidbrooke in London has written a wonderful design program. It is long, but then it's very slick. SmArt uses a cut-down wimp environment windows, icons and pointer are present. The mouse is missing. Rather than moving the pointer with a mouse, you can use either keys or joystick. The program is set to work with a joystick. If you wish to use keys then change the variable ke=0 (in line 20) to ke=1. On screen you're treated to an assortment of icons and a large blank area. The blank area is the drawing board. The icons - starting from top right - allow you to draw lines, boxes, circles, vary the thickness of lines and fill areas with a chosen stipple (of which there are 18 displayed at the bottom of the screen). Colours are selected by pressing f0, f1, f2 and 13 on the keypad. To select an option simply move the pointer (in the shape of a pen) over the required function. Then press fire (or the Copy key).
