What makes it harder for new Amiga would be programmers to learn programming
on the amiga is the lack (especially in the past) of adequate information on
how to get started. I have found that most new C programmers in the amiga
environment (without any prior knowledge of C) actually though that they could
pick up an amiga specific C programming book or purchase SASC or Manx & learn
C language. They had a real shock when they realized that was not the case.
In this area we have quite a few IBM C programmers and students with amiga's
that took a C programming Couse & still were unable to grasp Amiga C.
IBM C programmers in the area, just gave up.
Hopefully with the new 2 tech disk/mag journals coming out, more of the
problems will be allieviated
