- SK>I only have experiance with C=64/128 basic and assembly (not so much
- SK>assembly), but I have a strong desire to get back into programming.
-
- I am on nearly the same way at this time. OK, I programmed a little bit my
- amiga, but that was ages ago. Now I also try to get back.
-
- SK>and I want to step away from basic. What would your suggestion be for
- SK>someone who wants to start programming on the Amiga, for free? I have
- SK>heard of GCC, but I heard that to make Progs OS compliant, you need
- SK>C='s development kit.
-
- GCC is quite good. Yes, you will need that development it, but it
- shouldnt be very expensive... about 30-40$ not more.
-
- But I read in your sig, you hae one 6MB of RAM... this would only do for
- very mail projects...
-
- Maybe you also want to have a look at Amiga E, 2.1b is for free, since 3.0
- it is shareware (I dont know the price exactly, but it is about 40$ or
- so). With AmigaE you get all you need to program system compliant.
-
- It has a very fast compiler+assembler+linker all in one which doesnt need
- very much resources. But E isnt C anyway.
-
- And assemblers are out there at masses.
-
- SK>I only want a free dev lang until I get the hang of it, then in the
- SK>future I will consider, based on how fast my learning curve is, and how
- SK>good I get, getting a full (SAS/C?) dev lang.
-
- I like GCC very much. Maybe I wont need to buy a C compiler, cause GCC
- does a good job for me. But I also have 18MB of RAM and a very fast
- harddisc, so it is comfortably for me to work with gcc :-)))
