Short: The AmigaDOS Resource Project Author: Charlie Heath (CDH), Scott Ballantyne (SDB), many others Uploader: Kyzer/CSG Type: misc/antiq Architecture: m68k-amigaos The AmigaDOS Resource Project (ARP) was a project created by a group of Amiga developers who also wished to offer enhancements to the early AmigaDOS, as well as offer to C programmers a set of equal or more powerful DOS programming features that could only be accessed from the normal dos.library by using the BCPL language. You will be interested to note that all of ARP's extended functionality was made available in the 2.0 and above releases of dos.library, as well as making all features available in the normal Amiga library fashion. ARP is manifested in the following software components: - a library, arp.library - a set of replacement commands for CBM's original BCPL commands in C:, these either duplicate or enhance the originals. - a shell (which runs only under WB1.3) NOTE: THIS SOFTWARE IS OBSOLETE. Do _not_ install it on an Amiga with WB2.0 or better. This upload to aminet is simply to make this historic package more easily accessable. 'Later' hacked versions of arp.library are available, these route the ARP calls back into AmigaDOS. These programs are designed for and require WB2.0 or better. This archive contains the contents of ARP13.ZOO and ARPDOC3.ZOO, these were obtained from these files on ftp.funet.fi: /pub/amiga/ancient/ex-amiga-s/archive/amigabi.arp13zu1.gz /pub/amiga/ancient/ex-amiga-s/archive/amigabi.arp13zu2.gz /pub/amiga/ancient/ex-amiga-s/archive/amigabi.arpdoc3z.gz The development materials, actually still useful for developers, are also uploaded to aminet:dev/misc
