- Well, this version of tracker works on the amiga too.
- I happened to have the source of tracker with me and my amiga
- less than the usual 300 km far from me.
-
- Astoundingly enough, it took me only 5 hours to bring tracker up to speed and
- running, except for some trivial bugs, and only about twenty lines to change
- in the usual tracker source. Of course, I cheated. Some people may remember
- a quite old project of mine on the amiga... I already had some code for the
- audio.device.
-
- Then I came back home and I implemented the two-tasks model described in
- amiga.tech. The end result runs much more satisfactorily and in the end,
- it depends even less on the main program being optimized.
-
- By the way, it should be a bit more difficult to port this tracker release
- to a version of amiga-unix, or you'll have to retrofit the whole user interface.
- I hope somebody will do it and send it back to me anyway. Thanks !
