Ethan: I realize that the includes ship with the compilers, why the autodocs don't is a mystery to me. I was not aware that you could buy the autodocs from Commodore without becoming a registered developer. The situation is better than I had thought, I guess I owe Commodore an apology. However I still don't see why I can't go into my local Amiga store and pick a software development kit that contains all this. Maybe Commodore could start including disks with the RKM's, to include the AutoDocs, Includes and examples, for the RKM's to contain the includes in non-electronic form is not that useful. They made the samples to the 1.3 edition available electronically sometime after they were published and only if you happened to find out about it. I still feel more could be done to get this information out to interested developers. Once the OS is released this stuff isn't a state secret. Commodore should be making it as easy as possible for would be Amiga developers. -=Martin=- – via Whap!
