Line 33:
To speed up the animation of sprites, AMOS later included the AMOS Animation Language (AMAL), a [[compiler (computing)|compiled]] sprite scripting language which runs independently of the main AMOS BASIC program.[http://grove.ufl.edu/~cwarner/computers.html] It was also possible to control screen and "rainbow" effects using AMAL scripts.
After the original version of AMOS, Europress released two other versions: '''Easy AMOS''', a simpler version for beginners, and '''AMOS Professional''', a more advanced version with added features, such as a better [[Integrated development environment|IDE]], [[ARexx]] support, a new [[user interface|UI]] sublanguage and new flow control constructs. Neither of these new versions was significantly more popular than the original AMOS.{{Citation needed|date=January 2012|reason=For example, from my experience it was way more popular. References to sales figures or alike would be nice.}}
AMOS was mostly used to make [[video game]]s (platformers and graphical adventures) and educational software.
