AmigaSource.com - GENERAL AMIGA

On the face of things, we seem to be merely talking about text-based files, containing only the letters of the English Alphabet (and the occasional punctuation mark). On deeper inspection, of course, this isn't quite the case. What this site offers is a glimpse into the history of writers and artists bound by the 128 characters that the American Standard Code for Information Interchange (ASCII) allowed them. The focus is on mid-1980's textfiles and the world as it was then, but even these files are sometime retooled 1960s and 1970s works, and offshoots of this culture exist to this day.

The .ADF (Amiga Disk File) format FAQ

Author: Laurent Cl�vy

Verified: 0000-00-00

This document describes the .ADF file format. An Amiga Disk File is a sector per sector dump of an Amiga formatted disk. The intent is to explain in detail how the Amiga stores files and directories on floppy and hard disks. A set of C routines (ADFlib) will be supplied to manage the ADF format.

The Big Old Chip List (Amiga Custom Chips)

Author: RCR

Verified: 0000-00-00

Way back in 1989, when I worked for one of the many CBM divisions, I kept a paper that had a list of custom chips that I ran across in my work. The list got a lot of requests and kept growing. When CBM went under I moved the list over to AmigaGuide. It is a simple idea. It is a AmigaGuide sorted by the chip name and its function. Within that there is information on the full chip name, CBM Part Number and Machines used in. The guide covers machines from A500 to A4000T (and AA3000/A3000+) and CDTV(II) to CD32. OCS to AAA chipsets. Cards such as Gemini & A2631.

This document will hopefully answer some of the frequently asked questions so well that the questions stop becoming frequent, which will allow us to concentrate on discussing games instead of frequently answering frequently asked questions. Yes. If your question is about UAE, then the answer is definitely to be found in this FAQ! Read section 1. All of it! Thanks :-) And if you think it is okay to post binaries here, read section 4a! (quick answer: It is NOT)

The Next-Generation Amiga That Never Materialized Just Went Up For Pre-Order

Author: Marco Chiappetta

Verified: 2022-02-02

The Commodore Amiga is one of the most revered personal computing platforms ever. When the original Amiga first hit the scene back in the mid-80s, it was light-years ahead of any other personal computer available at the time in terms of its multimedia and multi-tasking capabilities. Once cost-reduced versions arrived a couple of years later, the Amiga became one of the most sought-after computers amongst gamers and content creators, for a short time at least (I should know, I was the top Amiga 500 salesman in the Northeast US at one point). Intense competition and poor managerial decisions ultimately tanked Commodore and the Amiga, however, and the rest is history. To the shock and amazement of many in the tech community, the Amiga will not go gentle into that goodnight. In fact, in a recent email visible on the Linux Kernel Mailing List archive, Linus Torvalds even asked "Will that thing _never_ die?" The short answer to that question is, "No". The Amiga community remains vibrant and the last couple of years has seen the release of a number of new accelerators and projects that not only breathe new life and add new features into the Amiga, but keep existing machines alive and functioning properly; the ReAmiga projects, Warp Accelerators, MNT ZZ9000, and Checkmate A1500 Plus are but a few new pieces of Amiga hardware.

The UnOfficial GVP-M A4060/A2060 Page

Author: Greg Donner

Verified: 0000-00-00

I've started this page in an effort to find and provide other GVP-M A4060/A2060 users with as many answers and resources as possible for these unsupported and mysterious 68060 accelerator cards for the Amiga 4000 and 2000 respectively. On June 9, 1999, I bought a refurbished Amiga 4000 (desktop) from Software Hut that came pre-configured with a GVP-M A4060 accelerator. Although the A4060 is a good accelerator, I have encountered some bugs and limitations that I am hoping my hosting this page will solve.

Tips for Amiga programming

Author: Tips for Amiga programming

Verified: 0000-00-00

I have searched the web for simple programming tips for newcomers on C and Amiga, but haven't found much. So here it is: My very own knowledge database :-) All sources are complete programs and have been succesfully compiled with SAS/C 6.58. Note that unless specified the sources are only tested with WB 3.1 KS 3.1 on a A4000 with a CV64/3D graphic-card. They are not prepared to be started from Workbench. Have you a specific question about C or C on Amiga, don't hesitate to mail me. Note that I only use SAS/C so I can't answer any questions about other compilers.

Your Guide to AmigaOne

Author: AmigFlame

Archived: 2003-06-27

Verified: 2022-02-02

{{ARCHIVED}} Your Guide to AmigaOne. The final preparations are being worked out which will see the next generation Amiga known as AmigaOne make its official debut. Bill McEwen outlined in his latest Executive Update that there is a need to now properly plan, budget, and order for the production of the AmigaOne. To determine how many Amiga users want to get their hands on the new Amiga they want users to purchase a $50.00 coupon from the Amiga Anywhere Shop. This coupon will entitle you to $50 off the price of AmigaOne/ AmigaOS 4.0. However, before Amiga users bust open their piggy banks I thought it would be appropriate to provide a guide to AmigaOne, so you'll better understand the gains of becoming an AmigaOne user.
