Subject: simple utilities of interest, hints..

I was wondering what would be a good a utility for Imagine users 
or users in general.. I finally got a compiler for my Amiga and 
I know I'm not going to work any miracles or anything but I'm looking
for a summer project aside from working as a computer consultant 
until I can get a REAL job (summer blues, ughh!!). So, if anyone 
has any ideas, could post them here for me and whoever else is looking 
for a summer project.. I can't say that I'd program your ideas, but 
I will give it a thought. I was also wondering if any of the programmers
here had any suggestions for learning how to create Amiga specific 
applications. I've been looking at the header files for the exec, 
tasks, processes, message protocols, etc.. It kinda reminds me of 
an event driven simulation I coded once, but I'm confused 
about the structure and the way to do things on the Amiga. In effect
I'm wondering how the heck anyone ever got an application up and running 
without some kind of tutoring on amiga applications design.. It seems 
to me a lot of this came from programmers with experience elsewhere,
like from UNIX.. What I'm looking for is a Dumby's Guide to writing 
applications for the Amiga. Any hints??  Or should I take this to
comp.sys.amiga.programming.. 

Thanks much,

Kiernan
