Programming

For lots of reasons, programming in C (and other programming languages) is fun on an Amiga/AmigaOS although documentation is sometimes limited. I recently discovered the source-code usage examples aggregator Hot Examples, which provides many examples of Amiga C code, like for SendIO()... Very handy to learn from our peers!

Below are some stuffs that could be possibly of interest to someone else :

• Developing a Keymap for your favorite French-Canadian keyboards;
• Cross-compiling from x86/Windows/Cygwin to m68k/AmigaOS/IXEmul;
  • Building libamiga.a for the cross-linker;
• Installing the Geek Gadgets, partly used by IXEmul;
• Using Eclipse to develop and cross-compile C programs;
• Tracking and fixing memory-related problems in C programs.

Then, you can do lots of cool stuffs , such as:

• AmiAutoUpdater to update Amiga program automatically;
• AmigaMapPing, let the World know your Amigas!
• AmiModRadio to download, extract, and play modules from Aminet and more;
• Implementations of the programs from ANT with VBCC;
• Recompiling and improving OpenURL v7.19;
•  Forking processes using IXEmul;
• GuideBrowser to index your AmigaGuide/Docs files;
• Recompiling/porting Links v2.12;
• Recompiling/porting THTTPd v2.21b + PHP v4.2.3;
• TINAPAMA, which is not a package manager!
• A graphical Game of Life with GadToolsBox;
•  WBShortcutMaker, a commodity to create shortcuts for any icon;
• X10 Programming for home automation.

The last three changes:
