CARDMASTER By Susan D. Phillips.................PAGE 22

Pitch? Gin Rummy? Draw Poker? Acey Deucy? Name your game! Susan D. Phillips shuffles them all for you in her addictive jumbo pack, CardMaster. You've been warned, now deal the cards!


CARDMASTER BOOT FILES.........................PAGE 26

CardMaster uses Atari's GDOS fonts to produce its superb visuals. In order for CardMaster to use GDOS, certain files must be present when you boot your computer. GDOS and its fonts are distributed on your START disk for use with CardMaster only. Install them and play away!

METAMORPH By Mark Kimball and Dave Stuart..PAGE 56

The smoothest animations consist of hundreds of frames. Drawing them in a CAD program can be tedious, however. Now draw just two and let Metamorph fill in between them. Cyber stuff was never easier!

SBLIT By Samuel Streeper....................................PAGE 60

The blitter functions offer the programmer a convenient way to move and manipulate graphic data. These functions are built into GEM on every ST, so this example program, demonstrating the use of the blitter for GEM window drawing and redrawing, works on every ST.
