I have done some basic "learn C on your own" textbook work with C and have
purchased a used copy of the Amiga ROM Kernal manuals, but they are difficult
for me to understand. Are there any examples of c source code in libraries here
that someone could suggest that would show how to A.) load an IFF picture file
from disk and display it and B.) load an IFF sound file from a disk and play
it? I find I can learn better from example code than the manuals written for
professional programmers. Thanks, George Roland
George,
There is a library for C Programming in AmigaTech. Look through it. I think
it still has the CManual – a course for teaching yourself C on the Amiga. And
there is lots of example code there.

I just did a quick search of the Amigatech libs, and didn't find any example
source code for reading ILBMs or sound files. I know there's something out
there (jiff.c – Jim Kent's old IFF reader source), I just have to find it. If I
do, I'll upload it here.
