The Elmore libraries are a very useful collection of commands, which are unfortunately no longer supported by the author (Richard T. Elmore). There are 6 libraries in all:
  • Dos library (#109), mainly commands for getting information about files, directories and disks, as well as other file manipulation commands
  • Function library (#101) (string handling + one linked list command)
  • Hardware library (#103) (commands relating to sound, timers, chipset and memory)
  • Include library (#111) (powerful compression and encryption for data files that you include into your executable programs using e.g. IncBin)
  • Math library (#105), a few simple maths functions
  • System library (#107) (4 commands for finding addresses of system libraries)
There are a few different versions of these libraries floating about. The original libraries were released as six separate files, which is the version available on this site. Another version was released on Aminet which had the function, hardware, math and system libraries in one big library and the system library had a few more commands in it (which you can emulate quite easily using the os). This is linked to below as well. However, the library number of this big library clashes with that of the very useful include library. Finally, an updated version of the dos library is available on Aminet (linked to below), which you should download as it fixes a few bugs in the original ElmoreDos library.

The source code to the all the libraries (except the Include lib) is also available in the library developer archive. See the documents section.
