Web-based image editor: DPaint.js
"DPaint.js" by 'Steffest' is a web-based image editor focusing on Amiga file formats, strongly inspired by the classic DPaint. It is run directly in the browser (works also with the MorphOS browser Wayfarer) and can read and write all kinds of Amiga icons and IFF images. As the developer writes, he developed it mainly because he wanted to have a modern tool for creating Amiga icons with a focus on colour reduction and dithering, to quickly convert modern images into old-school icons, and to edit files on ADF disks directly without having to start an emulator.

Shaderjoy allows displaying and creating Shadertoy compatible fragment shaders. Fragment shaders, also called pixel shaders, are programs that are executed per fragment (pixel) on the GPU.The ogles2.library 3.2 and Warp3D Nova 54.16 are required.

- Add keyboard channel. Also remove some keyboard shortcuts to avoid conflicts.
- Add projects files (.sjp) for those example shaders that require textures.
- Replace text buttons with more compact images.
- Show busy pointer during shader compilation.
- Disable uninitialized variable check (in icon) due to glCompileShader issue with some shaders: future ogles2.library should fix this.
