While at Sundown 2007 I kinda got the coding bug back again.

The Blizzard board in my Amiga died at Sundown 2005 and not long afterwards I got rid of it - damn hard thing to do! I had no money to fix/replace parts and didn't have anywhere to store it.

Problem is, ALL my old source code was on the HD in that Amiga - it all went when my Amiga went.

I'm looking for loads of assembler (commented preferably) to get me back into it - I've forgotten a LOT! Not interested in demo writing - utilities is my scene.

Just hunted through Aminet and downloaded a few files but nothing special. I'm surprised I couldn't find more.

Anyone know anywhere I can find any along with a forum I can go for help when I get stuck?

Ey up!

It's a shame you have trashed your Amiga, as your hard drive would still have been readable on PC using WinUAE...

Hi Zeb.

Nice hanging out with you at Sundown. I have a bunch of sourcecode I could send you. I'll put something together and email you.

Cheers!

Xtc: Yeah, didn't think of that when I got rid of it, should have really.

BuZz: Thanks for the offer, will be checking my inbox every 5 mins :P If you've got all the includes and autodocs they'd all be appreciated in a big way! btw, remember what I said abt your intro at SD2007 having 4 anim frames for A500 and 8 or even 12 for the A1200?

Thanks for the PM, will check after this post.

Thanks also for the link to EAB - I'll check those out tomorrow.

You can use the pics wherever you want except for the restrictions listed on the download page ;)

I'm uploading Saturday's pics right now since it's early hours and everyone except me is in bed :D

Thanks kyz, saw that not long ago while hunting.

After about 10 years of not coding a thing on the Amiga I've started rewriting a PCHG converter tool into assembler. I'm in the middle of creating the interface - just looking for code to jog my memory as some bits are a bit vague...

I realised last night that one thing I really was miffed that I lost when my old HD in my Amiga went was my library source code.

I wrote a nice library with loads of nice little routines that I lost the source to. :(

Now to hunt down an FAQ on libraries - either that or I install ReSource and disassemble one...

some code in http://aminet.net/package/dev/src/LibFrame

and lots of other examples. I've not checked any though so I can't say how good they are.

You diamond!

Just getting used to reading files written with includes - things looking a bit messy right now :D
