MorphOS: OWB 1.6 inclusive Flash-Plugin
Fabien "Fab" Coeurjoly has published a new version of the Origyn Web Browser for MorphOS. Besides other changes (siehe Readme) a graphical use-interface for blocking contents was added, the download manager was improved. As usual there are two different versions: OWB-nosvg without support of the SVG-format. This version requires a little bit less memory.

The Flash-Plugin which is based on swfdec and developed by Coeurjoly was now published. In the past the author always pointed out that it was a test version because the available open-source Flash-decoder are still not sufficient for day-to-day need. (cg) (Translation: dr)

Software-News: Game Chips, Text editor Annotate 2.7, MPlayer-GUI 1.47

AmigaOS 4: Game Chips

Chips is logic game written by Ventzislav Tzvetkov where the player have to build a computer from the chips placed around the professor's laboratory. After for AmigaOS 3 there is now also a version for AmigaOS 4 with improved graphics and animationens. Additionally the game can be played in a window modus.

Text editor: Annotate 2.7

The open-source text editor Annotate is available for all Amiga systems. For the first time there is also a version for AROS. Further changes in version 2.7:
  • Annotate can now be compiled for MUI instead of ReAction! The OS4 version uses ReAction since it looks better and has more features under OS4. All other targets are compiled for MUI but can be compiled for ReAction/ClassAct as well.
  • AROS is now supported
  • Added simple project support. This makes it possible to save and load a project file which will contain the current configuration of opened files and their editors/windows. Makes for a quick way of reopening all the files and windows you were working on yesterday, or before a crash
  • Annotate's editors are now AppWindows which means that you can drop icons on them to open files
  • Having a requester opening when Ann is started from Workbench is now optional
  • Realtime update of colors in the editor when they are changed from the Config
  • Added an expiration date to the "remembered lines"
  • Fixed the auto-update function so that it will download the correct binary for your OS (Will of course only work the next time)
  • Pasting an text that started with a linefeed at the end of a line didn't work correctly
  • Possibly fixed some random garbage that could have been inserted when cut'n'pasting vertical blocks with empty lines in the middle

AmigaOS 4: MPlayer-GUI 1.47

MPlayer-GUI is a Reaction based graphical user-interface for the video player MPlayer. Changes in version 1.47:
  • Made use of application.library which now also takes care of sending the filenames to an already opened MPlayer-GUI
  • Found a cool feature in intuition. Have compositing enabled and you can't miss it ;-)
