Image Editing: SView5 Carnival Discount Since requested by several registered SViewIV users, there's now the limited offer for a discount when registering SView5 as a previously registered SViewIV user. If you sent in your SView5 registration form before 5th March (before carnival is over) you are allowed to subtract 5 EUR ($5 outside Europe) from the bill's total.

ReDesign of CD³²/CDTV-Corner planned - Help needed We are looking for an experienced Web designer who can develop a new design for the CD³²/CDTV-Corner. Thorsten Schölzel can answer questions via email. Thorsten Schölzel: "The current design of the CD³²/CDTV-Corner is old-fashioned. With the new design we want to present the sites more clearly and professionally. Above all because it is the biggest homepage on the Internet which is for CD³² and CDTV. I especially want to point out that the CD³²-Alliance is a non-profit business. We invest our time and money. But we enjoy it otherwise we would not do it." (ps) (Translation: dr) [News message: 07.

Inofficial MorphOS-Patch for IBrowse 2.3 Unofficial MorphOS version string patch for IBrowse 2.3. IBrowse 2.3 falsely claims MorphOS system is using AmigaOS. (Particularily misleading since MorphOS systems are reported as running AmigaOS 4.0). This is a crude hack that just replaces all "AmigaOS" strings with "MorphOS", and "3.1", "3.5", "3.9" and "4.0" with "1.1" or "1.2". Better solution should be provided by the IBrowse authors. There is no warranty. Use at your own risk. (ps) (Translation: dr) [News message: 07. Feb. 2003, 12:15] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version] |

In order to tend the slogan designations better, Sven Drieling has put together a small databank that allows cross-connections to be made. Whoever has suggestions for further concepts can send them in an email to Petra Struck or enter them here in the commentary function - if at all possible, with an understandable description of the keyword. The glossary has been reachable for some time through the upper menu in the last row, in the second spot. The link had to be led through to the guestbook, which is also reachable through the footer.

Filesharing: DirectConnect Client for AmigaOS Diego 'DCR8520' Casorran has ported DCTC ("DirectConnect Text Client") to the Amiga (see also today's report). DCTC is a text-based client for the file-sharing network "Direct Connect". An early beta version of Amiga-DCTC is ready for download. Diego needs beta testers to support him in debugging the program. More information about DC (DirectConnect) may be found on the website of the manufacturer publisher's website for the Windows version. Diego shows how one may get the initial results with DCTC. First you need a list of all usable HUBs: run: hublist >ram:HubList Each line of the list looks like this: [DK]Moviezone©|moviezone.dyndns.dk|Min 60 GB. [MZ-Group]|507||||| Next you pick out a HUB (in the above example "moviezone.dyndns.dk"), additionally you must select a pseudonym and put in your IP Address (it should work with these minimal entries): dctc --nick=YOURNICK -a=YourHost/IP --hubip=moviezone.dyndns.dk If everything works, you'll now be connected to the HUB and the HUB will show a few bits of information (read it!) and now you may begin to send orders to the hub. HINT: You might be banned for the HUB, when your combination of "Connection" and "Shared Bytes" is not meeting the standard. In such a case you should use the command "/CNX T3" to set the server to a higher connection speed ("Connection") or "/OFFSET 1234567890" to raise the "Shared Bytes" (the amount of the data you are offering). Please BE SURE to read the supplementary documentation, and let us know your experiences with it. Direct download: dctc-0.84.1.lha [HINT: DCTC was unavailable on the master server (title link). The link for the direct download may in that case be accessed via a mirror]. (ps) (Translation: dm) [News message: 06.

Thomas Richter in c.s.a.p.: Further Developers Needed Thomas Richter writes in the newsgroup comp.sys.amiga.programmer: As you may or may not know, my Amiga "died" a few months ago and I decided to shelve all support for my Amiga software, starting with DiskSafe and ending with MuLib Packet. A new Maintainer must also be found, one who is interested in further developing all or part of my software. The terms are that the software must continue to be publicly available on terms simlar to the ones that I've established. I will NOT agree, to release this stuff under GPL or LGPL. The skills needed are C (ANSI-C) Programming for one half of the projects and advanced Motorola 68k Assembler for the other. Additionally needed (naturally) an Amiga and a C-Compiler, possibly SAS/C, because the projects are based on this. And Motorola-Assembler, possibly the DevPac, because I used a lot of notes with the macro-functions. The PhxAss is not sufficient for most Assembler-based projects. The "earliest works" (not the MuLib Packet of course) are documented in German (...). The sources are completely backed up and available and usable, because I was always a bit concerned about backups, and rightly so. Please send inquiries to my normal email address: thor@math.tu-berlin.de. So long and see you later! Cordially, Thomas (ps) (Translation: dm) [News message: 06.
