 |  Re: Who was TRIGATRA?
I checked few places, but could not find any reference to such a coder/cracker.
In fact at that time TPPC already decided to move to Amiga (he lived in Szeged, like me in my childhood), he was a knwon programmer at the time I started to learn assembly.
So I think Trigatra should be a coder/swapper on AMiga, not on Plus/4. Why?
There was a guy we know both, called Savanya (Zsolt?), and they bought their Amiga at almost the same time. I visited Zsolt few times, and he demonstrated me the Shadow of the Beast, and some coding stuff (how he can see and navigate in a graphical monitor system the content of memory, how a bitmap or mod music looked like in the memory, how to rip it...). Yeah, it was shocking 
At that time -if I remember well- I met once with TPPC. (in fact he is a reall "sharp" guy if you what I mean)
He was really Amiga focused at that time, seems he will never look back to 8 bit any more. He already built up a lot of contact there, eg. Pitesoft mentioned in the same demo (Istvan Weiser) was also a guy with an Amiga (also left plus/4 few months earlier), was in the same school as me. So in the greetengs there are already tons of Amiga references, maybe not worth to screen them through...
