I just found this code on the Aminet: http://aminet.net/package/dev/asm/ReadJoyPad
I've actually used this on WHDload slaves :)
I think some of the slave authors have made some improvements over time, especially helpful for emulation compatibility.

With AMOS i tend to just use the AMCAF commands for it , which work very well. XFire(p,b) i think ? (port, button)
How many buttons are supported by AMCAF's controller reader?

All 7 CD32 buttons, on both ports.
It also has Parallel port support (4 directions, 1 fire) but IIRC one of the ports is bugged / read incorrectly, so i usually end up using the ERCOLE extention for that.

That's why I asked. I knew you had said you used another extension for port reading due to a bug in the parallel port expansion.
