Hollywood: APNG-Plugin
Press release: Airsoft Softwair has just released a new plugin for Hollywood 5: Infinity. This plugin enables all Hollywood scripts to load and SAVE animations in the APNG format (animated portable network graphics). The great advantage of the APNG format is that it allows you to import and create animations that use alpha channel transparency. Neither the IFF ANIM nor the GIF ANIM formats support alpha channel transparency. Furthermore, APNG can also handle true colour frame data. A rival format to APNG is the MNG format but APNG support was chosen because more applications support it.
You can download the plugin from the official Hollywood portal. Thanks to Hollywood 5's cross-platform plugin system versions for AmigaOS3 (Classic), AmigaOS3 (FPU), AmigaOS4, MorphOS, WarpOS, AROS (Intel), Linux (PowerPC), Linux (Intel), Mac OS (PowerPC), Mac OS (Intel), Windows and Google Android are provided.

Python-Script: S3Cmd 1.1
S3Cmd is a script for AmigaOS 4 for Python 2.5 which makes it possible to access the Amazon-online-storage S3 via the Shell.
Since for MorphOS and AROS there are also current Python versions available it should also work with them. Please remove the included, precompiled .pyc-files before. Because for AmigaOS 3.x only an alpha version 2.4.6 is available this could cause some problems.
