Operating system for Amiga 3000/4000: Status update of "Apollo"
About a year ago, we reported on the start of Dietmar Planitzer's project to write "Apollo", an experimental operating system for the Amiga 3000/4000. We asked the developer what the current status of the work is, and he kindly summarised the following for us:
"Apollo is at the beginning of a (long) journey. At the moment the basics of an operating system exist, which can run in an Amiga with a 68030 processor and at least 256 KB of main memory. However, the operating system must be stored in a ROM chip that replaces the standard ROM found in an Amiga.
What can you do with Apollo at the moment?
As a user, not very much. You can enter text interactively like in a text editor and enjoy how the machine reacts to every keystroke with the output of a beautiful letter :)
As a developer/hobby programmer, there are more interesting things to discover: Apollo is a preemptive multi-tasking operating system that, like POSIX, supports a process hierarchy and makes resources accessible using a general "file descriptor" model. As in typical POSIX systems, there is a clear separation between kernel and user space (where programmes are executed).
However, multi-tasking works differently than in the original Amiga OS or a typical POSIX system: Apps create and manage so-called threads in these systems in order to achieve multi-tasking. Threads allow a programme to execute things in parallel. The problem with this traditional model is that programs typically (directly or indirectly) create many of these threads and most of them spend most of their time sleeping.
Apollo has no threads. Instead, it has "virtual processors" and "dispatch queues". A virtual processor is similar to a thread, but it does not belong to a specific application. Virtual processors can be moved between applications by Apollo as required. Applications use dispatch queues to tell Apollo what they want to execute in parallel. Dispatch queues are similar to the dispatch queues found in macOS, but unlike macOS, Apollo is built entirely from the ground up around dispatch queues.
What else does Apollo offer?
There is a console that supports keyboard and mouse input as well as the widest possible VT100-compatible output to the screen. There are the beginnings of a general "device driver manager", i.e. a component that recognises hardware and manages it. Hardware such as the keyboard, mouse, joystick, memory expansions, floppy drives, etc. can be recognised and managed.
There is also the beginning of a standard library for the C programming language to write (small) programmes for Apollo.
Next steps
The most important next step is the implementation of a file system for floppies and then hard discs. Also the implementation of a (simple) shell to be able to execute programmes. These components should make Apollo a little more interesting for users.
Further plans include things like "protected memory" and "pagging/swapping" and support for other 68030 systems like Atari TT & Falcon." (dr)

CLI command: sysvars V0.10
The sysvars command creates environment variables with system information in order to make it dependent on these, for example, in the startup sequence, which patches are included. So far there is information on the CPU and FPU, the chipset, the vertical frame rate (PAL/NTSC) as well as whether the emulator UAE is used - and if so, in which version.
Version 0.10 provides the following changes:
- Added $KickVer and $KickEnv that provide kickstart version and revision
- $UAE is now split in $UAEMajor, $UAEMinor and $UAERev for more convenient scripting
- Added detection of bsdsocket.library ($BSDSockLib contains the id string, $BSDSockLibVer the version, and $BSDSockRev the revision)
- Refactoring and code improvements (still learning though)
- Easy way to disable certain variables/features at the beginning of the file using constants (Adapt to your need and make the tool as tiny as possible)
- Unified SetVar approach using macros
- Easier integration of new features via consistent scheme
- Better comments
- added test script for startup-sequence

AmigaOS 4: Status update of WebKit port
George 'walkero' Sokianos describes the current status of the Webkit port in a forum post on Amigans (amiga-news.de reported):
"For some time now, the port was around 54% of the WebCore library compilation. At that point, I was getting around 10K of errors, and I was trying to figure out why this was happening and where exactly was the problem. Just last week, with the help of Kas1e who discovered what was wrong, he found that the problem was a missing curly bracket I stupidly removed a year ago accidentally. By fixing that, I managed to have WebCore library compiling up to 99%.
Actually, I already started working on a minimal window with a web view that will be able to show just one website. That's the next goal."
And Roman 'kas1e' Kargin has added: "the whole webcore is more or less cross-platform, while remain 1% is platform specific: an actual thing to render in, open a window, blit things in, gui, etc, etc. All should be written for OS4. That is harder part and real programming.
Once, George will have a window to which sites render, then - in worse case, even without gui - one can make a binary to which you spend a url and it opens window and render to it. It will be not a browser, but something as a start. At least we can test if core works , how fast, what need to fix, deal with crashes (i am sure there will). The fact that core compiles, doesnt mean all works as expected, it is unknown by now".
In this context, George suggests that another team take over the development of this part of the browser if there are interested parties. The current team could then continue to take care of WebKit, fix problems and keep it up to date.
The main repository can now be found on GitHub under "AmigaLabs". (dr)

Tool: SpriteSplitter V0.4
The basic idea of a spritesheet is to pack a series of images together into a single image. Dan 'zooperdan' Thoresen's "SpriteSplitter" reverses this: it is a simple tool for splitting a spritesheet image into separate images that can be used in the Scorpion Engine. This allows the user to save time when updating spritesheets by automating this process.<
In version 0.4 a -file parameter was added which let you specify a text file which contains a list of command operations. This is much faster than calling SpriteSplitter multiple times. (dr)

- When creating the WHDLoad package now you are asked about the slave to use.
- Multiple fixes when changing from level to level in the editor, palette and copper.
- Now you can set the minimum amount of Chip or Fast memory for your game.
- Optimization for loading levels, also reducing the possible glitches when changing level.
- Optimization in scroll routines.
- Changed ptplayer routine to the E-Penguin one.
- Added option to remove cross in the animation menu.
- Pressing fire during text printing speed up the printing.
- Mouse button can be used to close dialogs.
- Fix for dialogs when no scroll is used.
- Fix in use of gradient image for copper background.
- Fix in Answer Question trigger.
- Fix when merging image palette and sprite palette.

Amiga Tool Jam: AmiAuthenticator v1.0.2 (update)
AmiAuthenticator was also written for the Amiga Tool Jam and is a 2FA (two-factor authentication) code generator for the Amiga that is compatible with many websites that use 2FA. It generates TOTP (Time based one time passwords) codes with SHA1 or SHA256. Similar (non-Amiga) applications are Google Authenticator, Microsoft Authenticator and FreeOTP. These codes can be used to secure access to various websites, e.g. GitHub, LastPass, Amazon, Facebook, Instagram.
Depending on preference or installed GUI, the tool can be started as a MUI-, ReAction- or Gadtools-based version. All versions require at least Kickstart/Workbench 2.0. Since a UTC time source is needed, it is important that the system clock is set accurately and it is preferable to have a real-time clock installed or to synchronise the system with the internet. The source code is available on GitHub.
Update: (31.10.2023, 21:00, dr)
Version 1.02 released:
- fixed invalid memory access error on first startup causing a crash for some users
- the items saving was completely broken and was saving blank string

Amiga Tool Jam: DrawerGenie
For the Amiga Tool Jam, which ends tomorrow, numerous contributions have been submitted recently, which we would like to present briefly in individual messages.
Originally running under the working title "Drawer Helper" (amiga-news.de reported), Rob 'daedalus2097' Cranley has released the commodity "DrawerGenie" for AmigaOS 3.5 or higher. DrawerGenie allows you to add simple toolbars to the Workbench drawer windows. These provide some simple DOpus-like Workbench functions, such as defining a target window and sending selected files to it, copying and pasting files, switching view modes, sorting files, handling archives and more. File operations show a progress bar, are asynchronous and can be cancelled.
Drawer Helper was written in AmiBlitz, the source code is available on GitHub.

8-/16-bit emulator for Mac OS and Linux: Clock Signal v2023-10-29
Thomas Harte's Clock Signal is an emulator for various 8- and 16-bit platforms aiming to be invisible to the user. The idea is to simply start the source medium without configuring the emulator oneself. Clock Signal is available for Mac OS and Unix-compatible systems. While there is also an Amiga emulation included, it "remains wilfully inaccurate" for now.
Today, version v2023-10-29 was released. Changes:
- includes fixes to the sequence of addresses accessed by the Apple II for video generation, correcting broken instances of vapour lock;
- includes further build-system fixes that reintroduce support for macOS 10.13; and
- corrects address generation logic for the undocumented 6502 instructions SHS, SHX, SHY and SHA.

Soundtrack of the Amiga38 report by Robosaurus Spielothek available
Dominic Ortmanns of Robosaurus Spielothek writes: "A few people had asked if one can get the song from the credits of my Amiga38 video somewhere. That is possible now! We have set up an extra page for it at the title link.
The song can be downloaded for free and listened to and used as you like. If someone likes it so much that they want to support the artist in upcoming developments, there's also a Paypal donation link there. Have fun with it!" (snx)
