VirusWorkShop Documentation
The original AmigaGuide manuals, converted to HTML.
These are the documentation files that shipped with VirusWorkShop on the Commodore Amiga. They were written in AmigaGuide — the hypertext format built into AmigaOS 2.0 and later — and are reproduced here verbatim, formatting and typos included, as a snapshot of mid-1990s Amiga antivirus work.
