[net.micro.atari] ACTION!

eric@parallel.uucp (Eric Griswold) (02/26/85)

In the March '85 Byte there is mention of a programming language that
is C-like and runs on the Atari called 'Action!'.  Unfortunately, it
never mentioned who markets it.  Does anyone in net-land know where I
could find it?

My system could not find the sender, so I'm posting a followup.

OSS (Optimized Software Systems) in California makes it.  Also get their DOS-XL
for the ATARI.  These are the same guys that wrote ATARI BASIC.

I am thinking of writing some programs in ACTION! which require me to
interface to the cartridge in a really weird way. Is it possible for
an ACTION! program to invoke the compiler (i.e. instruct the cartridge
to read in and compile a new file) possibly wiping out the first program ?
