Sheesh, Wolf, here I've recommend your Studio Printer Drivers to about 100
people over the past year or so — not to mention writing a glowing review
of it in Amiga Resource — and you respond to a recommendation of my book
with "No, don't buy it!!!" ?? Gee….
:sniff:
Seriously, my book the Guru Book are aimed at different audiences. My book
is on using the Amiga, rather than programming it. It's something a
beginning user can find lots of info in, but also has some tidbits for the
veteran as well.
The Guru Book is great for programmers. Another _indispensible_
programming book is Mapping the Amiga, 2nd Edition, by Rhett Anderson and
Randy Thompson. (I have no connection there, other than being a friend of
Rhett's :). It's an incredibly useful reference, with looks at just about
every routine in the operating system. If you haven't seen it, it's worth
checking out.
