- NorthC by Steve Hawtin
-
- Welcome to NorthC Version 1.3, this is the latest version of NorthC, a
- complete public domain 'C' environment for the Amiga. NorthC 1.3 has been
- released as a two disk set, this disk "NorthC" contains all the programs and
- data required to compile and link 'C' programs, the other disk called
- "NorthC Examples" contains the source code for some exaple programs. You are
- allowed to copy NorthC and distribute copies, provided you charge no more
- than a reasonable copy fee. However there are restrictions about copying
- individual files from the disks, for example ":bin/Blink", ":bin/A68K" and
- ":libs/libc.a", see the appropriate documentation files for details.
-
- All the files and programs that I own the copyright on are released as
- CharityWare, if you find them useful you should donate $25 (US) or £15
- (sterling) to the national Spastics charity in your country, in the UK
- send the money to
-
- The Spastics Society,
- 37 Providence Place,
- Brighton,
- BN1 4GE.
-
- or take it to your local shop.
-
- I have attempted to create two floppies containing everything you will
- need to start programming in 'C', if you wish to make personal copies of
- the programs in NorthC you are welcome to play with them. If you are
- passing on any of this software please make complete copies of both
- floppies, even if you know enough about 'C' to not require all the examples
- and documentation someone further down the chain might not be so clever.
-
- **** NOTE ****
- If you change the name of this disk from "NorthC" you must edit the file
- "setup-NorthC" to assign the name "NorthC:" to the correct directory.
- **** NOTE ****
-
- It is my understanding that all the data and programs on this disk can be
- freely copied, provided the restrictions noted in the various documentation
- files are observed. You use the information and programs on this disk at
- your own risk, neither myself or any other member of Alcibiades Cabal
- accepts any responsibility for any damage caused as a result of using this
- disk.
-
- In order to make full use of 'C' on the Amiga, and to allow you to compile
- some of the example programs you will require the "include" files from
- Commodore. In the UK these can be obtained by contacting Commodore in
- Maidenhead and asking to become a "registered developer". In the USA the
- include files are available from Commodore for a nominal $20 fee, you should
- write to:
-
- Commodore Business Machines
- Software Department
- 1200 Wilson Drive
- West Chester, PA 19380
-
- and ask for the "AmigaDos 1.3 Native Developer Upgrade". In other
- countries you will have to find out for yourself. This package contains
- more than just the include files, and I have been told that it is well
- worth the money.
-
- If you have any comments, flames, bug reports or ideas for future NorthC
- developments write to me at,

-
- If you want me to reply then please enclose a stamped self addressed envelope,
- I cannot afford to pay for postage to everyone who writes in. I would be
- most pleased to hear from you if you have any NorthC example programs, I
- would really like to see them. If you send examples to me please tell me if
- I can include the programs in future releases of NorthC.
