NEOchrome is an early color bitmap graphics editor for the Atari ST. It was written by Dave Staugas, a programmer at Atari Corporation and co-author of the ST's operating system. NEOchrome supports hardware-supported color cycling to give the impression of animation. A color cycling waterfall, created with NEOchrome, was one of the iconic images of the early Atari ST. Following in the footsteps of MacPaint and the Apple II version which was renamed Mouse Paint, both released in 1984, NEOchrome uses the then-novel representation of painting tools by icons (in addition to other GUI elements).

  • NEOchrome ist eines der ersten Bitmap-Grafikprogramme für den Atari ST und wurde bereits 1984 veröffentlicht. Entwickler war Programmierer bei Atari und Co-Autor des Betriebssystems TOS (The Operating System). Eine Vorabversion (v0.5) wurde mit der ersten Systemdiskette ausgeliefert. Version 1.0 schnürten die Händler gerne mit den europaweit vertriebenen Discovery- und Power-Packs zusammen, die neben dem Atari 520/1040 ST/E Computer ein Paket aus Software und Spielen enthielten. Jedoch war NEOchrome niemals als Public Domain freigegeben und Dave Staugas stoppte hiernach die Entwicklung, so blieb es bei der offiziellen Version 1.0. Dadurch wurde das kleine Bitmap-Grafikprogramm jedoch schnell beliebt und verbreitete sich besonders in der Atari ST-Demoszene. In Deutschland war Thalion-Gründer und Pixel-Artist Erik Simon einer der bekanntesten Befürworter von NEOchrome und erläuterte im Sommer 1989 für die Fachzeitschrift die Bedienung der Version 1.0. NEOchrome besaß einen besonderen Vorteil gegenüber den umfangreicheren zeitgenössischen Bildbearbeitungsprogrammen, wie DEGAS Elite und : es arbeitete mit einer Echtzeit-Lupe, die bei allen Funktionen aktiv war. Die schnelle Farbwahl auf der immer zur Verfügung stehenden Farbpalette und die einfachen Zeichenfunktionen machten es gerade bei Einsteigern zu einem beliebten Pixel-Painter. Zudem konnten mit nur wenigen Mausklicks schnelle Palettenanimationen (Color Cycling) verwirklicht werden, z. B. fließendes Wasser. (de)

A pre-release version (v0.5) was included with the system disks of the first STs. Version 1.0 arrived later, and was bundled with several versions of the ST. Although not officially public domain, this version was often treated as such, and was never actually sold. NEOchrome enjoyed a relatively high level of popularity within the ST community, even in the face of more advanced packages such as DEGAS and Deluxe Paint. (en)
