What a strange point of view he had(s). I guess demo coders wrote a lot of different really useful things for SAM, just like data and screen crunchers, own assemblers and debuggers, music editors, graphics editors, etc. Something like that sometimes pops up on Speccy too. But it usually fast passes away, because someone ask that persona who told about "waste of space": - Do you use HRIP archiver ? - Yes I do - Do not use it anymore, because it was made by demo coders for their own purposes. Same about LaserCompact screen compressor; Hrum data cruncher; Sound Tracker, Sound Tracker Pro, Pro Tracker, Fast Tracker, Professional Music Creator music editors; and so on. > Luke
