I have a question about Semaphores.

I have used Semaphores on other systems but I can't figure out how to do
them on the Amiga.  I'm sure this would be of public interest so if
someone could just post a quick summery of how to allocated them, UP() and
DOWN() them, and destroy them.  (or anything else I should know).

I have the 1.2 Autodocs... but I must not have my eyes on straight when I
read them because I can't figure it out.  Someone told me they are
implemented "like messages".  Well, I have programs talking to other
programs with no problem using regular message ports, etc.

Thanks in advance!
