If you're interested in DICE, I do suggest that you download the latest
shareware version and take a look at it and see if it suits you. We all get
used to a certain style of software & I'd hate for you to register DICE and
find that it doesn't 'click' with you (and then blame me! 😉
It's the most used piece of software I have (except maybe DiskMaster) & I
recommend it unhesitatingly to everyone.
I really can't test the compiler before buying it, in my current situation.
The problem is, I don't have access to the file 'amiga.lib', which all
compilers apparently need. Do you know for sure if this file is included
with DICE (the $40 version, not the online one)?

DICE…?
Yes. Absolutely. Would I lie? :^)
Actually, DICE comes with two versions of amiga.lib: DCC1, the "regular"
compiler disk uses a version named amigas.lib for use with the small
data/small code model, the default. DCC2 comes with the regular amiga.lib.
Everything you need (except experience & the RKMs) to write Amiga programs
comes with DICE. You get the stripped includes & the commented includes
(along with the assembler ".i" files). You can even set up DME (the editor)
to auto reference the includes & DICE docs, place your cursor over a
structure name and hit CTRL-] and a window pops up with the structure
definition from the includes. I always forget the printf modifiers, so I
just place the cursor on the P in printf, hit ^] and I get a complete list,
niffty!
Sorry to take so long to get back to you, busy busy busy!
