Mom!

Why would someone have an amiga and not run AmigaDos?
Well...
I like unix. I was *raised* on unix, pretty much. I miss a lot of it...
However, I like the amiga. Admittedly, if (more likely when) I get UNIX,
I will probably maintain AmigaDos as part of my system. Among other things,
there are a decent number of system calls which require the amigados system
to run properly. Because of that, and the large number of normal people out
there who will have amigas without unix, I intend to keep using Ados and
writing programs that will work on it... On the other hand, I want to make
as many of them as possible UNIX portable..

Speaking of ports... Is there any way to port Lattice/Aztec C *libraries*?
I got curses.lib for lattice, but I have aztec. Grr...


And, of course, one more obnoxious question:
WHEN THE HELL IS UNIX COMING OUT? (And is unix, in fact, gay? ;-)

Also, while I'm bitching about UNIX.... Does anyone have specs for this? Like,
POSIX standards, what kind of extra software it will come with, compatability,
etc... I know that there are UNIX machines out there that take forever to
get to work with anything. Is the Amiga unix going to be (one would hope)
compatible enough that I can connect my serial port to Joe Unix Box, and
expect them to communicate after I set up a few files? Or will I have to
write protocols and all that?
