Learn to program Amiga applications and games in #AmigaE

[Cammy]

Hi everyone. Would you like to learn, brush up on, or teach Amiga programming? AmigaE and PortablE are excellent programming languages for the Amiga, and many top quality applications and games have been written in this language. I am learning to program in it myself, and so are a few others, while some of the more experienced coders help out by teaching us and explaining how things work.

We have regular meetings around this time (check the time I posted this and it should show the appropriate time for your time zone) every Sunday/Monday (check the date of my post, it's Monday for me in Australia but Sunday still for SamuraiCrow). Our meetings are in the #Amiga channel on the Freenode IRC network.

If you're online at the moment and would like to join in, learn to program and chat about some development projects, please drop by!

Interesting..
I've been meaning to (read too lazy to start) get back into Amiga programming, but it's been.. er.. a while.. ;-)
I did some C back then...

Not familiar with E.
(Googling) AmigaE is similar to C, which is good for me..
It is apparently Object Oriented.. I got out of programming (which cause much rejoicing among my users) before Object Oriented kicked in...

Hmm..

I'll take a look.

Thanx for the heads up..

Sadly I have never been successful in learning to program I have several learn C programming books but I just cannot seem to make my way through them. I am curious about this so I will check it out, but I make no promises.

Hmm, I think my browser doesn't like the link because it just pulls up a blank when I click on the AmigaE. Did I do something stupid?

That link is for an IRC client...

You'd have to install one for your OS.

I'd be cautious. IRC is kind of like Mos Eisley.. Very useful, but...

Mos Eisley spaceport: You will never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy. We must be cautious

Hi everyone! Just a reminder that our AmigaE game programming class is on again today, so join #AmigaE on irc.freenode.net now if you want to pick up some pointers or help out.

Thanks!

(P.S. Sorry we don't have a webchat client set up anywhere, but hopefully you can connect with another one and type /server irc.freenode.net and then type /join #AmigaE once it's connected).

Our programming class is on again right now if anyone would like to join in. We're currently working on getting our adventure game library code to work in PortablE as well as AmigaE, so it can be compiled for Aros as well as classic Amigas.

Please join in if you're curious about learning one of the best languages for writing games and applications on the Amiga!

You need to translated to own language(Chrome do it for ya automatic)

Also.. Any good links to get started with AmigaE?

Thanks
