Title: HiSoft Devpac 3
Post by: arnljot on October 07, 2007, 12:27:55 PM

Hi,

Just discovered that I have the Devpac 3 amiga assembler pack still boxed in the attic.

It's boxed, with the plastic sleave folder for the discs, mini pocket guide to the 68k and spiral bound manual. Does this have any worth to UAE or Aros developers? If so I'll donate it for free to them. For horders and scawengers the price is steep ;)

I don´t think that. Surely some people like to code in ASM and 68k ASM looks nice but today each project which based on ASM is a case for the trash earlier or later.

Assume i start a new project, in the background i have the idea to port it to OS4/MOS or AROS that doesn´t fit with ASM.

I was more thinking about the two manuals, surely that info is now openly available elsewhere, but maybe it still could be usefull to some for rev-engineering purposes?

Well, it depends what you're coding. If it's a hardware driver, you wouldn't code it in Java, now would you?
