Introduction
~~~~~~~~~~~~
ANAIIS, acronym for Another Native Amiga IO Interface Stack, is a software
solution that brings the possibilities of the Universal Serial Bus (USB) to
the old vintage Amiga, with 68000 at 7.14MHz, and the ZorroII card Highway or
clockport Subway from E3B.
At minimum, you need:
- an Amiga 68000 at 7.14MHz
- a Highway or a Subway card
- some RAM (70 Ko for a mouse and a keyboard)
- should operate from WB1.1 to AmigaOS4.0 (680x0 cpu required).
ANAIIS, Another acronym with hidden parts:
Native because it is all written in C language (some parts are in Assembly).
Amiga because this computer worths this kind of program.
Input/Output because it works for mice, keyboards, thumbs and printers.
Interface because it translates usb transactions into Intuition events.
Stack because this kind of program is called like that.
ANAIIS controls internaly :
- (9,0,0) alias hub
- (3,1,1) alias keyboard (boot keyboard)
- (3,1,2) alias mouse (boot mouse)
and externaly:
- (7,1,1), (7,1,2) alias printer (uni and bi-directional)
- (8,6,80) alias massstorage (bulk only with embedded scsi commands)
SATA disk, sticks, keys, thumbs, card readers...
- (3,0,0) vendor=0x044f 1103 product=0xb320 45856 ThrustMaster (joypad with
rumble)
- all external program by using a Sirion like API.
- like pl2303 vendor=0x067b 1659 product=0x2303 8963...
A little graphic user interface is given to control the stack.
You can also control it via CLI commands: usbstart, usbreset, usbstop.
You can send files to printer with the usbprint <file> command.
A redirection helper translates parallel.device unit 0 into ieee1284.device.
You only need a compatible printer driver to print via standard system.
(i.e. Deskjet560C for HPSC2210, or a PCL compatible driver)
External programs can be used with ANAIIS stack, such HID (extra buttons),
ThrustMaster (joystick with rumble) and massive (keys with (8,6,80) interface).
These programs are not delivered with this package.
For games, demos or some tools, you must keep original mouse and keyboard.
ANAIIS translates usb transactions into system events, so programs that
use hardware directly won't work.
ANAIIS is not yet resident and doesn't survive at boot time.
Tested with success with Brilliance, Deluxe Paint, Aegis Sonix, Ced
(I wrote this text with it :) ) most of well written Workbench tools.
It is possible to plug and unplug devices without reseting the stack.
But be careful with disks.
Requirement & Installation
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
See Install.readme file.
Future
~~~~~~
- Internal drivers support.
- Reduce code size, suppress debug data.
- Improve gui.
- Improve speed and reactivity.
Known Bugs
~~~~~~~~~~
- crashes (guru 2 or guru 6) if the usbkey0: is present after key unplug.
need to remove manually with
assign usbkey0 dismount
assign usbkey0: remove
before inserting another device
- copy and rasterdump works, directdump hangs

12-Dec-2007 Merge code for Highway and Subway.
02-Dec-2007 Printing doesn't work...
V0.92 18-Nov-2007 Most hub will work now. I have implemented 2.0 mode, but
old 1.1 style doesn't work. Now it fixed.
23-May-2007 Additional code to simply manage mousewheel. ANAIIS will
send 0x7a for up, 0x7b for down, 0x7c for left and 0x7d for
right, as keyboard events. Strange for a mouse!
Strange multiselection: Qualifiers key was wrong on repeat
state, but good on key up and key down.
I use inputdev tool (Robert A. Peck 1985) to check that.
Now you can move cursor with keyboard keys:
lalt+window key = lalt+lamiga = left click.
ralt+context menu = ralt+ramiga = right click.
window key+cursor up = lamiga+up = mouse move up.
window key+cursor down = lamiga+down = mouse move down.
window key+cursor left = lamiga+left = mouse move left.
window key+cursor right = lamiga+right = mouse move right.
V0.91 13-May-2007 WB1.3: suppress ugly console windows.
V0.90 09-May-2007 First working release.
V0.10 10-Jun-2006 Mouse!!
