A few suggestions for the revised version:
ADDITIONAL/MODIFIED PRIMITIVES:
PENREVERSE
REPCOUNT
FOR instead of/as well as DOTIMES though if the latter is kept,
change the initial variable value to 1 instead of 0
- in line with REPEAT
BURY, UNBURY particularly important
VECTOR ARITHMETIC and MAP
would be faster as primitives but are straightforward
to write and then could be buried!
FILL to flood to a specific boundary colour if necessary, otherwise fill
while on the same colour, as with MSWLogo. Gives greater scope for
designs.
TEXTBOX allow value to change even when transparent
as in FOREVER[SETtext1 .1 * slider1]
Ability to change the projectsize within an existing project
Include RGB colours, allows greater control.
Ability to search for a particular word/phrase in the HELP as in most
Windows FIND options.
