At last its back on line!

Tragic PC rubbish! Buy an Amiga A4000T!

Hurray?

Speed? Ha! Try using the sisvax!

Cool little game..... ;-)

I'll try and get something sorted out over the next week.
A new release of the ZoneJoy library is nearly ready. It supports 020
instructions (i.e. CMP2) and has had the joystick testing routines enchanced to
remove unnecessary code and sloppy work ;-).
Hopefully I'll be testing the lib out, then once I've done exhaustive testing
(e.g. about 10 mins) I'll go some updating docs for it.
Note: The 020 testing is switch on or offable BUT you can obviously only
switch it on if you have a 68020 in your Amiga.
> 3. BlitzGuide. Again, not the newish I don't think, but again, upload

Great work from Jurgen! I've got the guide installed on my machine and have it
available at a touch of a key. Everyone should have a copy ;-).
TO MARTIN:
~~~~~~~~~~
I have been unable to mail you directly. I have, though, placed a message in
your ftp site named TOMARTIN.TXT. Read this and delete it please. Anyone else
can read it as well but I don't think you'll get too much out of it ;-).
Bye-bye from me,
Steve Mc.
