NEOchrome is an early color bitmap graphics editor for the Atari ST computer family.〔http://alive.atari.org/alive10/esneo.php〕 It was written by Dave Staugas, a programmer at Atari and co-author of the ST's operating system. ''NEOchrome'' allows hardware-supported color cycling to give the impression of animation. A color-cycling waterfall, created with ''NEOchrome'', was one of the iconic images of the early Atari ST.〔(【引用サイトリンク】first1=Walter )〕 Following in the footsteps of ''MacPaint'' and the Apple II version which was renamed ''Mouse Paint'', both released in 1984, ''NEOchrome'' uses the then-novel representation of painting tools by icons (in addition to other GUI elements). An pre-release version (v0.5)〔〔(Page 6 Atari Users' Magazine - Issue 28 )〕 was included with the system disks of the first STs.〔 A proper version 1.0 arrived later, and was bundled with several versions of the ST. Although not officially public domain, this version was often treated as such, and was never actually sold.〔 As a result of this, NEOchrome enjoyed a relatively high level of popularity within the ST community, even in the face of more advanced packages such as ''DEGAS Elite'' and ''Deluxe Paint''. Although there were no further official versions,〔 an unofficial revision called NEOchrome Master was released in the early 1990s.〔http://dhs.nu/files.php?t=pixelpainter〕 ==NEOchrome Master== NEOchrome Master was built by disassembling the binary program "NEOchrome 1.0". The resulting source code was uncommented and hard to read. But it could be assembled back into the same binary program as before. This allowed the author to extend the program. Many extensions were built into the program and various version were released to the public. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「NEOchrome」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
