Amiga Stuff

Description

A random collection of my Amiga related programs, mostly written for AmigaOS on classic Motorola 68k hardware. This is for the purpose of learning and sharing with other programmers in the Amiga community, so we can spread an improve the understanding in order to write better software for our platforms.

Since I have number of classic Amiga, AmigaOS 4, MorphOS and AROS machines spread around my house, I figured I should put them to good use, deepen my understanding of these systems and improve my C and general programming skills.

The C code was developed with the VBCC and gcc compilers on a GNU/Linux system using the C99 setting.

I think that cross-compiling is the most effective way to program the Amiga - commodity systems for development, vintage custom systems for deployment.

There are also scripts in Python, Racket or Scala for certain tools that prepare and process data.
