Banner 1.00

Bitplane 99

There was a banner command in Xenix, it was pretty good for sending messages to other peoples terminals. I wanted it, so I made it for the Amiga.

Feel free to copy this program (don’t forget this doc though…), upload it to Aminet, or even hack in to it and change the ‘#’ to something else. Its all yours.

The text is baised on topaz 8, 9 chars fit on a row on my screen (Hires Lace) so thats all you get

Usage:

    Banner <txt> [txt][txt][...
    eg)
    banner "its a" "banner or" three "or four!"

Recompiled for the pc…

Shame about the intel outside bit, now its on the PC. I am embarrased to say that the Amiga version (BANNER) is BIGGER (yes BIGGER) than the PC version (BANNER.EXE) :(

Sorry Microsoft… I take it all back (well not all of it)
