Re: TIB: Icons on the 92+
Because to create a new picture that is, say, a horizontal line 5 pixels long,
you have to say NewPic [[0,0][0,1][0,2][0,3][0,4][0,5]]... a much better way to
have done it would be the way the 89 converts lists to matrices. you specify
the list (say {1,2,3,4,5,6}) and the number of elemnts per row (say 3), and it
gives you the matrix [[1,2,3][4,5,6]]. with the picture, you could make a list
with 1's and 0's, and the number of pixels per row... it would be really nice
oh well
for AMS v2.25 or whatever's next!
