Amiga C Book accompanying floppy – “Grafik in C”
What a wonderful, inspiring weekend, spent writing some C in Cygnus Editor. Few months ago a coder from my demo group from the nineties found his Amiga 1200 with a fully functional and kicking hard disk. In one of its deeply nested, completely deprived of any systematical approach, ‘drawers’ (that’s how folders were called on amiga), I’ve bumped into the contents of one of the rarest books for amiga, low profile, cheaply done, published only in Germany, never translated to english, called: Grafik In C. But it has tons of hints (quite valuable today) on how to do some advanced gfx coding in C (copper, blitter, viewports, pixel manipulation, basic 3d etc.).
SO, I decided to share it with anyone who might be in need of good tutorials:
