- Get hold of a copy of HiSoft basic. It's backwardly compatible
- with programs written in AmigaBasic (and about ten times faster!)
-
- Amiga Shopper gave it away as a coverdisk in November 1995 so you could
- always try to get hold of a back issue.
-
- Interestingly, at least one of the example programs was written by a
- certain P Kittel who worked for CBM Germany.
-
- I wonder what became of him? ;-)
