I am have just started learing to program using 'C' and am wondering
if there are some sort of standard ways of doing common functions.
Examples:
Opening a screen, opening a window, creating menus, creating requesters
(string, file, one that accepts numeric values, etc.)
I've looked at the source of a few programs, and no one does it
the same. I realize that this is mostly a matter of choice, no
one way is better or worse than another, but for a beginner, it
is very confusing.
If there is no real standard, how about suggestions for places to
look at good, (well commented, whatever YOU think is good) code.

The is a book called (I think...) "Inside the Amiga with C". I
found it at the Memory Location. It gives good examples of doing
all of the standard things, e.g. opening windows, etc.

And isn't there a Fish Disk with Intuition coding examples?
Um, just a minute.... I brought in an AC today...
Yep, FF #107 contains a directory named ProSuite. The description
says:
"Suite provides example code for facilities such as FileIO
requester, Xtext, DoRequest, and tutorial on how to program
the Amiga."
And wasnt' Commodore supposed to release a disk of coding examples
by Intuition's original author? Whatever happened to that?

Many of the lower number Fred Fish disks contain many good
programming examples.
Look at
MVCAD3::user1:[amiga.ff05]
MVCAD3::user1:[amiga.ff107]ProSui.arc Prosuite ARC

Whatever happened to that? Yep. They gave a copy of it to Fred Fish and he released it on, let's see, disk 107. :-) ProSuite is written by Intuition's author, R. J. Mical. | |||||
