MorphOS: Web browser Wayfarer 2.7
Jacek 'jacadcaps' Piszczek has updated his web browser Wayfarer to version 2.7: Changes:
  • Worked around random crashes that may have been observed in 2.6
  • Significantly improved performance of various threading checks across WebKit
  • Worked around an issue in objc runtime that caused Wayfarer to stall during download notifications. Do note that notifications must be reconfigured in Magic Beacon as some keywords have changed.
  • Improved handling of websites that constatly request http auth credentials instead of caching the state

Hollywood: APK Compiler 4.0 released
Press release: Airsoft Softwair, the hardest working men in code business, are proud to announce the immediate availability of Hollywood APK Compiler 4.0. The Hollywood APK Compiler is an add-on for Hollywood that allows you to compile your Hollywood scripts into stand-alone apps for Android, ready to be distributed via the Play Store!

Hollywood APK Compiler 4.0 is a major update which now supports compiling Android App Bundles (AAB) as well. Starting from August 2021, new apps uploaded to the Play Store must use the AAB format which is why the Hollywood APK Compiler supports this format now too. Of course, it's still possible to compile APKs because those are really useful for sideloading or distribution outside the Play Store. Another new feature in Hollywood APK Compiler 4.0 is support for the final version of RapaGUI 2.0. Everything in the final version of RapaGUI 2.0 is now supported by the Hollywood APK Compiler as well!

The update to Hollywood APK Compiler 4.0 is available free of charge for all existing customers and can be downloaded from the restricted download area. (dr)
