Wget 1.12 Rev. 2
Wget is a free command line program of the GNU-projects for downloading files from the Internet. Diego Casorran has ported updated versions for AmigaOS 3.x and AmigaOS 4.
Changes:
- src/connect.c: Fixed connect_to_ip() function to
report correct message on failed connections.
- src/utils.c: Changed the following functions to do things
on an amiga-only way using dos.library equivalents: suffix(),
determine_screen_width(), xsleep(), make_directory(),
file_exists_p()
- src/host.c: Reworked gethostbyname_with_timeout() to directly
handle our TCP/IP Stack's gethostbyname() disabling C linklib
SIGINT signal in the meanwhile and using Exec's way
- src/openssl.c: Changed close() by CloseSocket()
- src/log.c: avoid fclose() over stderr
- OS3 Build Compiled using OpenSSL 1.0.0a (Rev#2)
- Fixed CTRL+C handling under OS4 - Thanks to Corto for the fix!

OpenSSL 1.0.0a Rev#2
The OpenSSL Project is a collaborative effort to develop a robust, commercial-grade, full-featured, and Open Source toolkit implementing the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL v2/v3) and Transport Layer Security (TLS v1) protocols as well as a full-strength general purpose cryptography library.
The AmigaOS-port is completely native, the ixemul.library is not required. Developer documenations are part of the distribution. The latest version "Rev#2" includes some minor improvements:
- Compiled using GCC 3.4.0 for better speed (please report any issue, i didn't trust so much this compiler)
- Optimized bzero/bcopy/memmove/memcpy functions to achieve a somewhat faster speed. (libnix)
- Implemented alarm() to perform the tests, we'll no longer have to wait those long times
- Time spent on speed tests are now calculated using ReadEClock()
- OPENSSL_assert() will now open a ReAction/Intuition requester (usefull for WB-only progs)
- Enabled MD2 and RC5 which was disabled by default..
- Added 68040 build (user and dev)
- Added new set of root certificates
- Included Installation script

AmigaOS 4: ffmpeg 0.6
The latest version 0.6 of the program ffmpeg is now available as common and Altivec-optimized version (as gpatch-file) for AmigaOS 4.
Sine the last version for AmigaOS 4 the following formats were added: Deluxe-Paint-animationa, CD-graphics, Apple Core Audio, Chinese AVS-video, Adobe film strip, Dolby TrueHD, Sony Wave64, Psygnosis YOP, VP8-Video, WMA 9 Professional, Blu-Ray-Audio, DivX-subtitle, the WebM file format, RTMP-stream support and many more.
According to the author Michael Trebilcock ffmpeg could run under AmigaOS 4.0. But ffplay requires a fast processor as well as probably AmigaOS 4.1 Update 1.
x264 encoding is broken and has bad quality, but has been included anyway. It may work properly on machines with Altivec support. This is yet to be tested..
ffmpeg 0.6 and libx264 revision 100 have incompatible default settings. Due to this, .ffpreset files can be used and are included. libx264 encoding was not available in the previous OS4 port. No functionality has been lost.
Download: ffmpeg.lha (13 MB)

Software-News: EvenMore 0.68, Amiga Media Center Preview-Video
Text viewer: EvenMore 0.68 (5.7.10)
Chris Perver's EvenMore is a text viewer written in AmigaE. Changes since our last message:
- Amended EvenMore executable to allow you to pass an extra filename on to the plugins. If you click on a link beginning with a #, EvenMore will pass this link on to the plugins along with the path to the currently opened file. This will allow EvenMore plugins to browse inside archives while still keeping a note of the actual file being accessed.
- Amended Arc2Text.plugin to browse LHA files, although there are still some bugs, the code needs to be optomised and files cannot yet be extracted.
- Fixed bug in filetypes plugin. Was incorrectly using pattern string as the buffer as well for the pattern parsing function.
- Created a basic LHA viewing plugin and preferences. You will need to delete the #?.lha filetype from the filtypes.txt file in order for this plugin to work.
- Hyperlinks to files no longer needs full path to be specified.
EvenMore will append the path of the currently viewed file to any linked files. Also amended Dir2Text plugin so that it does not use full paths any more. This should speed things up.
- Mariusz Danilewicz of the ATO team has kindly updated the Polish catalog.
- Removed patternStringF module and replaced with my own RawDoFmt() code.
