Instant Messenger: SabreMSN 0.70
After the build for AmigaOS 4 James 'jahc' Carroll has now published version 0.70 of his MUI-based MSN-Messenger SabreMSN for AmigaOS 3.x, too. The changes of this version are listed in the Changelog.
The author has some graphic problems with the 68k-version because the datatypes he uses do not support transparency. So on the website of SabreMSN (bonus downloads) you can find IFF-ILBM-smilies with white background.
