From: barrett@jhunix.HCF.JHU.EDU (Dan Barrett) Newsgroups: comp.sys.amiga.programmer Subject: Re: Source to OS (Was Re: Information on Amiga Technical Reference Seri) Date: 15 Jun 91 21:50:01 GMT In recent articles, people have asked Commodore to release the source code of the operating system. Since Commodore has decided not to do this, I thought it would get the ball rolling by releasing the source code to BLAZEMONGER. As you are well aware, BLAZEMONGER is the fastest program ever written. On the average, it is finished running just slightly before you reach for your joystick. (Don't worry... it's usually faster in practice.) We figured that the source code would prove instructive to young hardware-bangers eager for MAXIMUM SPEED, but still not sure how to get it. (Hint: you're doing it WRONG.) And next, who knows: perhaps other companies will release THEIR source code too! Then we can all laugh and see how STUPID it is compared to BLAZEMONGER's ultimate form. Aren't we worried about BLAZEMONGER clones being written now, as EVIL, WIMPY companies steal our source code and incorporate it into their own games? GET REAL!!! We fear NOTHING!! In fact, if anybody tries to use even ONE BYTE of BLAZEMONGER code in their programs, even modified beyond recognition, we will know. Trust us, we'll know. You don't want to do this. It will be very bad for your, uh, health. So much for the "legal-ese" portion of our posting. So, without further ado, here it is: the SOURCE CODE FOR BLAZEMONGER, THE FASTEST PROGRAM EVER WRITTEN!! It is in uuencoded format. Simply save it in a file and type "uudecode filename" to decode it. ------------8<----------------- cut here ----------------8<------------------ begin 644 BLAZEMONGER.X end ------------8<----------------- cut here ----------------8<------------------ Enjoy!!
