Thank you everyone for the responses. The main reason I want to learn is as a learning tool, to learn more about the Amiga and how Intuition, Exec, AmigaDOS and so forth are called upon, and how they work. What do I want to do? Basic stuff really - Open a window to a specific size on an existing screen, make up manus, open a new screen, experiment with calling different common libraries for things such as file requesters, and much further down the track, explore the datatypes system from Workbench 3 onwards and how that can be used to load data.
From memory, the RKMs were written in such a way that C was assumed, I nearly ordered them back in 1993, but was put off by not knowing C and they were not exactly cheap from memory.
Now that so much information is now available online, I'm hoping learning more will be somewhat easier, despite me not exactly being a young lad anymore.
