Text editor featuring Kickstart-1.2 compatibility: Redit 1.16
Kai Scherrer's text editor Redit works without any limitations on an Amiga equipped with Kickstart 1.2, but also is fully compatible with higher versions of the system. The editor can be also launched from an emergancy disk or used after booting without startup-sequence. In version 1.16 some minor bugs have been fixed:
- bugfix: a multiple line undo was not drawn properly. fixed
- bugfix: the displayed amount of occurrences of a find & replace
operation was always 0. fixed
- improved: Redit is now using INTUITICKS only when required, which
decreases the CPU usage with an idle, active window
- bugfix: in CLI mode an error code was never returned. fixed

Development: Hollywood APK Compiler 2.1
Press release: Airsoft Softwair, the hardest working men in code business, are proud to present the Hollywood APK Compiler 2.1. This version adds support for Android Studio 3.0 and makes the conversion of Hollywood applets into APKs even easier by erasing the direct dependencies on the Java Development Kit (JDK) and Gradle. Instead, the JDK and Gradle versions that are shipped with Android Studio are used now. So Android Studio is the only thing that is required by the Hollywood APK Compiler now.
Note that version 2.1 requires at least Android Studio 3.0 so existing users should only upgrade to this version if they also want to upgrade their Android Studio version. Keep in mind, though, that Google dropped support for older Android versions in Android Studio 3.0 so all APKs compiled by the Hollywood APK Compiler will require at least Android 4.0. If you still need to target Android 2.3, don't upgrade to the latest version of Android Studio and the APK Compiler. Finally, also note that version 2.1 is no longer compatible with 32-bit systems. It requires a 64-bit Windows so 32-bit users should also keep their old versions.
Version 2.1 of the Hollywood APK Compiler is now available for free download from the restricted download area for all existing Hollywood APK Compiler users.

Hollywood: Special offer to celebrate 2018
Press release: To celebrate the new year Airsoft Softwair are now officially the hardest DISCOUNTING men in code business because for a short time only Hollywood is now available for each platform individually for just half the price. This offer is very interesting for people who only want the Amiga version of Hollywood, for example. They can now buy Hollywood just for the Amiga platform (which includes native versions for AmigaOS 3, AmigaOS 4, MorphOS, AROS, and WarpOS) for just 49 euros instead of 99 euros which is a saving of 50%! The same is true for people who only want the Linux, Mac OS, or Windows version of Hollywood. Single-platform licenses are now only 49 euros for a short time! People who want Hollywood for all platforms can still buy the all-round version for all platforms for 99 euros of course.
Note that the single-platform versions of Hollywood still support compiling for all platforms supported by Hollywood, so even if you only buy Hollywood for Amiga, you can still compile for all other platforms including Linux, Mac OS, and Windows as well!
