make programming the machine easier.  The purpose of this book is to show
you how to use these routines.  Perhaps the best way to learn Amiga

book.  Before starting though it will be helpful to go over some Amiga
fundamentals.  This section presents some of the basics that all Amiga
programmers need to know.
