Today I am releasing "Quilt" a set of palette manipulation
programs and a quilt pattern generator written in Basic09.

The program was designed because my wife and daughter are into
quilting and I had once seen an IBM Basic program that created
Kalidoscopes. In addition having to suffer with composite monitors
on the coco I knew that finding the right palette could make
the difference between just fine and unreadable.
The program is designed for a type 8 ( 320x192x16 ) screen
although some components will run on any screen. I have included
some scripts to help setup a type 8 screen if you do not already
have a way to create one.
All source code is included.
I would like to thank
L. Curtis Boyle, Robert Gault, Rick Ulland, Wayne Campbell & James Jones
& Others for their input and help.
I am bundling some other utilitys and scripts with it that I found
very useful particularly for automating the install of the program.
The main program requires a coco3 with 512k and a 720 Disk Drive or
Drivewire and at least two 35 track drives although in that case
you would need to do a manual install or at least one 360k drive
which should work with an automatic install.
Like to know what every one thinks.
Which utilitys you find most useful and whats out there
that compares.
Enjoy
Charlie
