I would like this capability also. In general, I wonder what users
of Oberon/F would like to see for future directions of the system.
When I demonstrate Oberon/F to others the three most common remarks
I get are (1) no graphics editor, (2) no sound, and (3) no threads.
Regarding (1), I would like to see an extensible platform independent
graphics subsystem similar to the text subsystem provided by Oberon
Microsystems. In addition to a drawing system, Oberon/F ought to
have a platform independent way of handling bitmap images.
Regarding (2), I would like to see an extensible platform independent
sound subsystem. In these days of multimedia it seems that these
two capabilities are becoming more necessary. I suspect that they
would be easier to supply than (3), which would probably require more
of a change to the underlying system. Does anyone else have any
thoughts on future directions of Oberon/F?
