*** munch munch munch ***

Having purchased the manual set I'm ready to get started (da-da-dum-dummmmm)
DEVELOPING! The first example in the Intuition guide states that it is really
important to know the right rev level of intuition when you make the OpenLib
call. Naturally I wondered what version of intuition I had so I wrote:

#include 
#include 

struct IntuitionBase *ib;

main()
{
	int i;

	for (i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
		ib = OpenLibrary("intuition.library" , i);
		printf("rev %3d status: %s\n" , i , ib == NULL ? "A" : "P");
	}
}

expecting that I'd get one P for present and a lot of A's for absent. Well,
I got one hundred P's. What gives?

Actually, this isn't a really burning issue but I thought I'd start some
new conversation in the net (although I really would like an answer).

Say, why doesn't the detailed manuals actually tell you how to add device
drivers? They sort'a skirt the issue.

P.S. I haven't gotten any feedback on my desire to start a New Jersey
AMIGA group - wake up!!!!
