`27.Nov.2009`	Software-News until 27.11.2009 Metacompiler: PortablE r5 Christopher Handley's metacompiler PortablE translates the Amiga specific programming language E into different languages. Windows, AmigaOS 3/4, AROS and MorphOS are supported. Changes in version r5: Experimental MorphOS support (for C++), including MOS executables! MUI seems to work Modules provided by others for AHI, CD_Play, FreeDB, MPEGA & some MUI bits PortablE is up to 65% faster than before PortablE's memory usage has been halved! Now similar to GCC's MUI programs with custom classes can now be compiled by AmiDevCpp for OS3 Added emulation of AmigaE's ! (floating-point) operator to the compatibility mode FastNew is implemented using an enhanced TLSF algorithm, greatly reducing memory usage Programs produced by PortablE run faster, and PEGCC produces smaller executables Lists are now truely stack-allocated, rather than being dynamically faked Implemented the missing string formatting codes (\l, \r, \z, [w] & (x,y)) for C++ For speed, multi-threading support is now disabled unless you use OPT MULTITHREADED Directory scanning is now much more robust on Windows Improved documentation; clickable links, added bold/etc & special characters now visible More examples of portable code Various bug fixes Download-Tool: wget 1.12 for AmigaOS 3/4 Diego Casorran has published new ports of the download tool wget: URLs in file's comments are now unescaped (eg: %7e -> ~) For the first time, added an AmigaOS4 build. Compiled using OpenSSL 1.0.0-beta4, download it from amiga.sourceforge.net if you want SSL support in Wget - OS4 users need to have AmiSSL installed Amiga Future: New full versions online Further software have been added to the download section of the Amiga Future website, among others Reflections 4 (CD-ISO), Football Glory, Andreas Stürmer MP3s and much more.
