[eat this line -- please!]

this is amiga!bart.  thanks to matt dillon for posting an example library.
however, as he pointed out in his comments to the code, the system approved
way of creating a library to add to the system is with the MakeLibrary call.

why should YOU follow the convention of using the MakeLibrary call? well,
if you are ROMCODE (or want to look like romcode, or be romcode eventually)
the example as posted won't work.

why would you like to look like romcode? well, for one thing there will
eventually (real soon now) (actually a binary was posted recently to usenet)
be a way to protect your ram-based code from reboot so that YOUR library
is just like any other rom-based library as far as the system is concerned.

taking the extra time and exercising the appropriate brain cells NOW will save
you time later (i have got sample code to clean up and post... but currently
it is at a lower priority than my "system tasks")
