How many editions of the Amiga RKMs were published by C=?
« on: March 23, 2013, 12:48:44 PM »
I'm hoping that someone can help shed some light on official Amiga RKM releases, print or digital.

I'm aware of two print versions:

1. One which has the white cover and kind of boring text and comes in four volumes, which I think was published in 1986?

2. The other is the blue version with a pixelated Amiga logo (the one with a swoosh under it), which I think was three volumes and was published in 1989?

As for digital versions, there was an updated edition in the Amiga Developer CD published by H&P during the Amiga Technologies period, which I believe was official?

Also, the NDKs with autodocs from 1.2 to 3.9 have been released to developers on disks, and I believe the 3.9 was released on the Amiga Developer CD from H&P?

If anyone has proper info on the above mess, do tell!

Thanks all for shedding light on this.

As for the future, I would think print editions would be anachronistic. Digital editions, on the web or otherwise, would make more sense.

That being said, it would be cool if we had one site that was a one-stop shop for all APIs from AmigaOS 1.1 - 3.9, AmigaOS 4.x, MorphOS and AROS :)

We'd have to get permission for the text of the print editions from Amiga Inc. I suppose? (or better yet, H&P) :)
