The only real "porting" is access to the serial port, which is
abstracted in a single class.  If the Amiga has POSIX style interface to
the serial ports, then the Unix implementation should work fine.  If
not, you just have to implement basic open/close/read/write type of
methods for the serial port.

   It's not especially posix, but you can open a file named
"SER:" with fopen and read and write to it that way. It's
quite simple.

If you get an Amiga version running (or find someone who already has),
please send me the URL so I can link to it from the NQC site.

   If you have trouble getting it going, shout. I have a
working 3000/060 still, and the SAS C++ compiler. I could
probably give you some help/advice.

p.s.  Owned an Amiga a long time ago.  Neat box, but just never caught
on.

   I did a lot of fine coding on an Amiga. Very programmer-
friendly.


Thanks
