Hi Guys. I'm new here, too, but have a suggestion. >> Perhpas you might like to adress the original question, about a good book from which to learn C? I'm certainly hard put to name a text that will take you gently into the Amiga's environment. I've been trying to lear C myself – just not enough time. Anyway, I've been going through Abacus' book _Amiga C for Beginners_. I also have the _Amiga C for Advanced Programmers_ but haven't gotten that far, yet. They're both circa 1990 – just a little out of date – but have specific examples and explanations, including the "Hello" program that EVERYONE writes on EVERY platform. They also include the compiling and linking commands for Lattice (told you they were old) and Aztec compilers. There may be updated printings for these, but I haven't had time to check. Good luck to (I can't remember the originator of this thread). Wolf Pup
