I wouldn't bother with Blitz for a beginer, apparently the manual is
terrible.
I'm sure this'll probably turn out controversial, but I recommend
EasyAmos for anyone wanting to learn Basic, it's got just about the
best manual I've seen...
Also, for web development, you don't need to write HTML, get a
WYSIWYG web editor from somewhere :) (either amiga, check aminet or
(yuck) FrontPage express on the PC)
See ya :)
Quote carefully and read all ADMIN:README mails
