Karate :
Krabob-Senseï put it this way : "Karate is a demo Script engine used to run demo on a lot of amiga, from 68030 aga with no FPU to 68060 or UAE amiga with Cybergraphics. It uses simple text scripts to define the whole demo. It's xml-HTML like."

Karate is a powerful demo making engine. Features are :

• Easy to write, easy to learn, easy to master,
• Manipulation of sprites (with datatype support) and animation,
• Easy transparency effects, using simple color remapping tables,
• 2D Texture Matrix transformations (twirl, warper, tunnel, ground & ceiling ...),
• Blurring effects,
• Scrolltexts (vertical or horizontal),
• Modules in P61 (for real classic Amigas, or good emulator) or DigiBoosterPro (for all system through AHI, using dbplayer.library, which allows synchonisation between viewing and listening pleasure),
• Animation of simple built-in 3D objects (Sphere, Torus, Cube, Stars) and sophisticated Lightwave objects & scenes.
• ... and hidden features !
