Jack, The parallel port is R/W. Someone has actually done a parallel port network for the Amiga. You can grab the port hardware, but you're not supposed to. You should be able to get the proper speed without doing that. If not, it's doable, but you should allocate the port anyway so nobody else thinks it can have it. The de-facto C compiler for the Amiga is SAS/C. It's what Commodore uses.
