[comp.sys.cbm] Using Geos

jpa@pnet51.cts.com (Joel Anderson) (09/21/88)

I use it - although there fits and starts - that is, unless I have
a specific graphic project (newsletter, brochure) it may go weeks
without use.  
As far as my own artwork goes - I waver between using Geos (the best
drawing [full page] program available) and OCP Advanced Art Studio ( the best 
multicolor, er, multicolour, CBM graphics tool available).  It all depends
on where I want my work displayed - if paper, then Geos, if screen, then OCP.
I  think the biggest breakthrough will be when there is a high level language
available for general purpose hacking....

It still stands alone as a word procession tool that uses true virtual memory,
and I do use it  - although usually to dress up documents - particularly
things
I downloaded from elsewhere.....  If there is enough interest perhaps someone
should upload the "Wrong is Write" tool that lets you port text into<-->out of
Geos. - or can't we do that here?
