A journey down memory lane - AMIGA...

Hi Neo...
I am an amateur coder, and only do it in the evenings. I am a professional RF engineer, (originally pure electronics), but code in my spare time...
My latest upload for the classic AMIGA, on AMINET, was a DEMO Python anim' of an EM87 Magic Eye valve/tube, on 1st Jan 2013. At the time of this reply it was at position No3...
I have uploaded loads of stuff to there and my best kids project was for the AMIGA the first GIF anim you see:-
I know you don't like URLs posted but it is mine and is HTML 3.2, 256 colour, compliant...
The GIF anim you view is a calibrated DC-100KHz Oscilloscope that COULD, at the time, be made by almost anyone... I even deveoped the GUI for it where the buttons stay in when selected. I am still in awe of the AMIGAs Intuition... The sinewave generated in the anim was a real sample not a _photoshopped_ painted one...
If you want to see a list of my stuff for the AMIGA here is AMINET's URL pointing to me...
The vast majority of my stuff is PD but some I put on GPL. I ask for no money and none of my code or programs are crippled in any way...
Again apologies for the URL, I only do stuff for kids to understand and do for themselves...
I also have a load of Python stuff on code dot activestate dot com, well over 40 snippets...
And to answer your final question I have never coded in php plus I am not a good enough coder anyhow...
Bazza, G0LCU...
EDIT:- I forgot to add that I have modified a USB KB to give cude USB I/O at about 300 bps for a simple OS - MikeOS - of which I am a member
and the 8086 assembly code to use it... If you want the pointer for the details I will give it. This is also in the PD... ;o)

SAFE_FINGER(8) Linux Programmer's Manual SAFE_FINGER(8) NAME
safe_finger - finger client wrapper that protects against nasty stuff from finger servers SYNOPSIS
safe_finger [finger_options] DESCRIPTION
The safe_finger command protects against nasty stuff from finger servers. Use this program for automatic reverse finger probes from the tcp_wrapper (tcpd) , not the raw finger command. The safe_finger command makes sure that the finger client is not run with root privileges. It also runs the finger client with a defined PATH environment. safe_finger will also protect you from problems caused by the output of some finger servers. The problem: some programs may react to stuff in the first column. Other programs may get upset by thrash anywhere on a line. File systems may fill up as the finger server keeps sending data. Text editors may bomb out on extremely long lines. The finger server may take forever because it is somehow wedged. safe_finger takes care of all this badness. SEE ALSO
