RKM2_ASM 1.1

Short:        R.K.M codes - Translated into Assembly.
Author:       John White <yoingco@hotmail.com>

Type:         dev/src
Version:      1.1
Architecture: m68k-amigaos
Date:         June 2001

Last month I only uploaded a portion of these codes as I was a first time
user of the Internet/Aminet. This archive now contains approximately two
disks of code.

The codes are my own translations of the R.K.M `C' codes, aswell as my own
assembly codes. These codes are NOT examples. Simple read each code, from
top-to-bottom, and digest what you see! The main reason for writing these
codes was my frustration of "everything-is-written-in-C" syndrome. Each code
has been tested. My main aims were to get the right pointers and offsets to
objects via lea and move.l - When I was a beginner I found getting pointers
and offsets a challenge.

Most of the important codes are here - see list below. I.e I did not bother
with codes that you can find in any Amiga book. Also not here are Hardware
codes, CopperList codes, etc as I view these as not standard to most
programmer and/or not system function oriented.

Here is a breif outline of the main codes in this archive:

        ASL - Font, Pattern, Multi-Select, ScreenMode.

    Devices - Audio, Change_Mouse_Position, Clipboard, Console, DiskDrive,
              GamePort, Input, JoyStick, Keyboard, Printer, SCSI_Query.

        DOS - Examine, Exall, Match.

       Exec - List/Nodes, Ports, Messages, Task, Trap/Exception, Signal,
              Wait, Interrupts, Semaphore.

   Graphics - Bitmaps, Bobs, Sprites, View, Dual Playfield, Scroll, Monitor.

    Handler - An Handler that emulates missing (broken) keys using the
              numeric keypad as replacement keys.

  Intuition - Guru, Prop Gadgets, Menu, String Hook.

  Libraries - GadTools, HotKey_Commodity, IFFParse Clip Chunks Prefs,
              Utility_Tags, Locale_Catalog, SetFunction.

      Misc. - Arexx, BitField, DateTime, Potgo_Resource, Sound, Rnd, XREF.

 Requesters - WB and Custom Requesters.

  Workbench - AppWindow.s, Icon.s, AppMenuItem.s

     Speech - My own speech program (check out STM.LHA in Aminet/misc).

    CSG/DSG - Create System GEVs (creates system Global Env Variables
              about your system).

        MKE - Missing Keys Emulator (allows you to emulate Missing (Broken)
              Keys or send key messages to a window).

 I am currently doing Boopsi (New to this archive: Select_Gadget.s which
 is my assembly version of SelGadgetTest.c). I also looking into the
 possibility of an Animation.s code).

 Finally. A BIG THANK YOU to Frank Wille for his general help/guidance in
 my annoying?! persistant with my assembly questions.

 ENJOY!!
