-
- This program is freeware so you are not obliged to give me anything
- for its use. However if you use it and you happen to have written
- some good programs with it I would be gratefull if you can send me
- a copy of them or inform me about their existence and from where I
- can get a copy of them.

- Introduction
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- Up to now people who wanted to create AmiTCP applications had
- to resort to programming in the C language. This was really a
- pity when one considers the number of languages available for
- programming on the Amiga. Besides it limited the number of people
- who could create TCP applications for the Amiga which everyone
- would benefit from. Despite the fact that I usually program in
- machine language, I have always admired programming languages like
- Blitz Basic and Amos since they allow beginners to create astonishing
- programs.
-
- As blitz Basic is one of my favourite languages I decided to make
- a SDK of AmiTCP for Blitz. Another one for Amos will shortly follow
- which will feature more easy TCP programming.
-
- Together with the extension I have included some example programs
- which though very crude and incomplete give a starting example.
-
- I have converted all AmiTCP socket.library commands, so there is no
- limit to the applications you can create with this extension.
-
-
- Installation
- ~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
- To install the extension copy the file bsdsocket.library1 to the
- Blitz2:blitzlibs/amigalibs drawer and run the makedeflibs.bb program
- to incorporate the commands in Blitz basic.
