Just out of curiosity:
1. Why is not the Amiga version of MakeNl supported any more? I
guess the answer to that is that all those @amiganet nodes does not
care about any Makenl?
2. Just the same, Johan Billing and I spent a lot of time, ten
years ago, making our common MakeNl project compile on an Amiga using
SAS. But the makefile for it is no longer present among all the other makefiles.
So, can "all" of you running an FTN node on an Amiga please tell me
if Johan and I spent all that effort in vain, or are there really any proper Amiga systems out there?
At first glance I don't see any Amiga-specific code in there though.

I have this in osamiga.h:
#include <sys/types.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/dir.h>
#define STR_DIRSEPARATOR "/"
#define UNREFERENCED(x) x=x;
#define MYMAXFILE 64
#define MYMAXDIR 1024
#define MYMAXPATH 1088
#define MYMAXEXT 12
#define MYMAXDRIVE 3
#define filecmp strcmp
#define strcasecmp stricmp
#define filenodir(x) (strchr(x,'/') == NULL)
/* Needed definitions */
#define OSFND "osamifnd.c"
#define OSFUL "osamiful.c"
/* Overrides over defaults */
#undef OSDSL
#define OSDSL "osamidsl.c"
#undef OSRMS
#define OSRMS "osamirms.c"
I don't know what SASC uses as a compiler #define. __SASC__ maybe?

If you're interested, I can take it upon me to maintain the Amiga
version of MakeNl.
If not, why don't you simply close down your precious @amiganet? ;)
I'll forward it to AmigaNet, but I don't think there will be muchinterest.

Because we are not using MakeNL on the Amiga, we should close down AmigaNet? Strange suggestion! ;)

# amiga makefile for makenl

I have this in osamiga.h:
Ah I remember now. The osxxx.h/osxxx.c stuff became unmaintainable and
was all merged into two files - os.h & os.c - but the Amiga code got
left out because I had no way to build/test it.
In all that time, Amiga support has not been missed, so I am not going
to pursue this any further.
