Sierra Online's the next step

[Serguei2]

When reading old Compute! magazines. I noted Sierra released the next step on Atari 8bit.

 

Based on the ads, I wonder if the next is a language between Basic and machine language.

 

I can't tell much from the ad.

It's mainly a character set editor. Check it out at Atarimania: The Next Step

That's sort of what Action! is.

I just tried the new step. It's a character set editor like Mrfish said.

 

I wonder what's the point to buy this software.

 

Is it compatible with Basic?

Looks like it will produce BASIC or machine language listings:

 

Personal Computer Museum - The Next Step

 

Antic Article - Grafix

 

At least for character set editing and pumping out screen character codes on the Atari,

I've always liked a program called Macro Edit. Lots of nice options to work with:
