Super Magic 3.2 is the latest version of the freeware Orca/M macros library,
for anybody to write games or demos with little assembly knowledge.

I have sent everybody who requested the earlier version (v3.1) this version 
via email. If you never receive it, sorry, the mail has bounced.

I have not been doing any programming on GS lately, due to the lack of
encouragement (seems like Internet people are not as active and supportive
as Genie or AOL guys). The v3.2 beta has been left there for at least a few
months.

After seeing the Invaders from Space, I am so happy that I dig out my source
code, finish up the demos, and post the lastest version here. V3.2 includes
routines that allow user to get sprites from screen, read joystick, on and 
off Zip GS, etc. The demo has been redone, to use the latest routines and
simplify the source code. A much better documentation is there too.

I will be happy if somebody did one of these:

1. Post this program to Genie, AOL and any place you know. Pass it to any
   GS users/programmers you know.

2. Help me to write a better documentation.

3. Help me on sprites drawing on the arcade game using Super Magic.

4. Actually write something using Super Magic.


Enjoy.
