The STOS slideshow was written using STOS and compiled using the STOS compiler. Although it can only display lo-rez pictures, It can be loaded from a low or medium rez desktop. The STOS slideshow lets you view any picture files with the extension PI1 or NEO. It does not only display the pictures. There are different ways that the pictures appear and while the picture is on the screen, an effect occurs. It is possible to hold the picture but not at all times (See keyboard instructions in program). It's also possible to store the pictures in memory so that you don't have to leave the disk inside the drive. This could be used to show off your artwork on ST's in shops or anywhere where there are ST's without worrying about your disk being stolen. The number of pictures that the computer can store depends upon the memory. A standard 520ST(FM) can store six pictures. You could have one picture introducing yourself with details of how to be contacted and the rest could be examples of your work. You never know, someone from a software company who is looking for a graphics artist may notice your work. Once the program has loaded, You will be asked if you would like to view the pictures from the disk or store them in memory and view them without the disk. If you choose to view the files off the disk, you will see a stos fileselector. When you are in a directory with pictures in it. Press return or click on the RETURN or QUIT boxes. All the files in that directory will be displayed. If you choose to view from memory, you will have to choose each picture file individually. Only files with PI1 and NEO extensions can be used, you wuill be warned when you choose something else. You will then be asked if these pictures are the right ones. The pictures will then be loaded and when the first one begins to appear, the loading would have finished and you can remove your disk and hope that people will notice your artistic talents.
