Is there a seperate manual in the Amiga ROM Kernel reference series that covers Libraries? I have the Devices manual and the Includes and Autodocs Manual. The Autodocs manual refers to a Devices and Libraries Manual that includes tutorials. My Devices Manual does not have this. I am think I will need a more complete explanation of the Libraries and their data structures than is contained in the Autodocs manual to properly program the Amiga. Does the Manual exit? If so where can I get it. Thanks for any Help Lee

Lee, The 2.0 RKM manual for "Libraries" is indeed a separate volume, and has not been released yet. I believe it is scheduled to appear by the end of this year (but don't quote me on it <grin>). Hope this helps…. ..BobR

Would the 1.3 volume have contained both? It seems to implied. If so do you know if it would still be available? Lee

Indeed, the 1.3 versions of the RKMs had a single volume for "Libraries and Devices". They should still be available. However, keep in mind that 2.0x had a _LOT_ of changes/additions in the Library functions, and it might make sense to wait for the newer RKMs. The information in the 1.3 RKMs is still valid, it just won't contain any of the many additions new to 2.0x.
