You both have pointed out a weakness in the available documentation. While the
useage of shared libraries and devices is well explained, the process of
creating such beasts is covered with clarity and simplicity exemplified by
the KGB documentation bureau.

All I can do to help you out for now, it to tell you that there is nothing to
it. Shared libraries consist simply of a skeleton, along with a set of
functions that accompany them. For an assembler example, look in the ROM Kernel
Manual, Includes & Autodocs. For a C example, look in AmigaMail, page III-11.
AmigaMail is a tachnical newsletter sent by CATS (Commodore-Amiga Technical
Support) to registered devellopers.

No, I don't work for CATS.
