AmigaOS 4: Cinepaint, Gimp, vim and Xfce for Cygnix (X11)
Edgar Schwan has published ports of the picture editing softwares Cinepaint 0.21.1 and Gimp 1.2.5, of the text editor vim 7.0 and of the desktop manager Xfce 3.8.16 for AmigaOS. The programs require the X11-enviroment Cygnix.

These publishings are alpha versions that means that not all functions are already available. The development of the programs was stopped because of a lack of time. But the author hopes that the software could be interesting for some users in this level, too. (cg) (Translation: dr)
