-
- I would also like contact with other AMOS programmers out there. I have used
- AMOS long enough with virtually no support.
-
- There are a couple of books available on AMOS but I'm not sure if you can
- get them in the US. I've only heard about them, not seen them.
-
- There's no mailing list or ftp site per se, however, there is a collection
- of PD disks named "Amoner" which circulates around on some sites. I believe
- either ux1 or wustl maintains them. Currently there are 5 disks.
-
- As far as AMOS Pro goes: how is it? Can you give us a complete run down? Are
- you a previous AMOS user? Is it worth the money? I have been using AMOS since
- version 1.2 and I would like to get the upgrade but I'm reluctant to shell
- out some $50 for an upgrade.
-
- Also, I would consider maintaining a mailing list for AMOS users out there
- if there is enough interest. Anyone?
