Is it possible to write C routines and have them be callable from
an AmigaBasic program?  I'm doing some prototyping in AmigaBasic and
I'd like to be able to speed up some of the more stable cpu-intensive
routines by providing C versions.  I presume that if possible, it would
involve some hackery like turning the C function into something that
looked like a 'library' that Basic could call, but I haven't a clue
how to go about all that (from either side).  Any advice or examples
would be appreciated.  Thanks!
