  • I wrote a game for the Amiga a long time ago, in Modula-2, and later converted it to the PC (windows), using Delphi.


    I want to get the original Delphi or Modula-2 code so I can write a smartphone app based on the game. Right now all I have is the Delphi .EXE on Windows.


    I have been told it is possible to get Assembly code from the EXE file, but that would still leave a ton of work to unravel all that.


    I still have the original Amiga disks with the original Modula-2 code I wrote. I have an a500 and an amiga 3000 somewhere. Not sure if I have a monitor or compatible printer.


    What's the easiest way to get that code from those disks? Is there any way to read the contents of the Amiga disk from a PC 3.5" disk drive?


    Thanks for any help!

    no - but you can do it the other way around - use "crossdos" on the amiga and copy the files to a pc disk using the amiga. or if you dont mind spending a few bucks, perhaps get a aca500 for the amiga and copy the files to cf-card. or even use a terminal program on the amiga and send the files to your pc via RS232. YMMV :) in any case its probably easiest to use the amiga to read the disk and copy the files - especially if you are interested in the actual files and not just disk images.
