Who knows his stuff with CDXL? Since our next issue of the CD32 Outside

their own animations for it or converted other animation formats like MPEG, AVI, Quicktime or Anim
into a CDXL animation.

AminetGUI now with AULA (Aminet UpLoad Archive)
The Aminet-GUI has a new feature! Starting immediately is AULA (Aminet UpLoad Archive). This
is an archive containing the weekly upload lists. They can be sorted by date or directory. As a
special service, I will also offer the so-called Top Aminet Uploads. These are uploads I
described briefly. They can also be found on the AmigaFuture

Confusion about ATC v1.1
While uploading the final version v1.1 of the FTP client AmiTradeCenter
to Aminet there was a delay, giving the impression the archive was not uploaded successfully (while, in fact,
it was successful). Due to this confusion, another beta version of ATC v1.1 (prerelease 8) was published
on the program's homepage. Please simply think of this as prerelease 1 of ATC v1.2.

version 44.10:
- The descriptor is now less over-meticulous so that JFIF files that start
with any standard marker type are recognized as well. Less common JPEG files
should now be recognized as well.
- Smaller optimizations and changes in the code.
System requirements: AmigaOS V3.0+, WarpUp Release V4(powerpc.library V15)+,

ATC v1.1 prerelease 8
On May, 9th 2000 the prerelease 8 of version 1.1 of the FTP-client AmiTradCenter
is published.
The programm is able to parse FTP-URLs and offers ADT (Aminet Directory
Tool) -support. Changes to version 7 of the prerelease are:
- change: improved check of "Ram:/ram disk:"
- change: the FTP-Type command is not sended until next change of type
- change: the way the ftp.lib checks the result of the ABOR command
and the EOT has changed, so the programm should be more compatible
- bugfix: the serverlist was displayed as hosted if the first entry in
the .profile-file was a list and this was marked as active server
- bugfix: if the mode of a running but not connected serverentry was
changed and then a connection to this server was established the GUI did
not show the new mode
- change: the ADT-buttons (dl readmes, keep dirtree...) are moved to the server-group of the main-preferences program
- bugfix: ATC was not able to set the active server if you are not using the patched listtree.mcc class
- change: if a server is added to a closed group now the group is opened before the entry is added
