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)

AROS: StartWinAros enables easy file transfer from Windows
StartWinAros is a Program to do a easy transfer from the Windows to the AROS Side. (Screenshot).

It needs only a folder with the source Files and the WinAROS-installation as destination.

A ISO-File which includes the Files will be generated, WinAROS will be started with the correct configuration and the ISO-file will be mounted as CD-ROM under AROS after a Mouseclick.

StartWinAros requires the actual QEmu-Version. But it is possible to mount the ISO-file under older WinAROS-Version and the VirtualPC-Version of WinAros.

StartWinAros includes a installation and a deinstalltion routine.

Filesystem: Ext2FS 0.24 with write support without debug output
With version 0.24, Marek Szyprowski has now released the first public version of his driver Ext2FS, which includes write support without debug information. Ext2FS makes working with the Second Extended FileSystem possible under MorphOS and AmigaOS 3.x.

The write support was tested for more than a year, in which hundreds of gigabytes of data was transferred. Here, the filesystem worked very stable and never led to serious damages to the drive structure. However, please read the disclaimer before you use Ext2FS.
