IRC client: WookieChat 2.5
James Carroll just released a new version of his MUI based IRC client WookieChat for AmigaOS 3/4. New in v2.5 is the option to supress the "join", "quit" and "away"messages, also the seperate "Server-Tab" is not needed any longer. The changes in detail:
- You can now close the leftmost server tabs
- Dedicated server tabs can be disabled/enabled. Configure this setting at: Main Settings > Servers. Server tabs can be closed now regardless
- When a person sends you a file with DCC SEND, the file comment field is filled with their nick and IP address, and the network name
- When messaging someone in private, away messages are only displayed once unless they change
- The ignore function now ignores /notice messages
- Added an ENV variable for AmiUpdate compatibiilty
- Added a "Hide" menu item, with short cut, for quick iconifying
- Bugfix: No more crashing when closing second networks
- Bugfix: Parting channels on the Serenity IRC network no longer crashes
- Added a workaround for a strange PREFIX parameter on the EnterTheGame IRC network
- Bugfix: No more garbage characters bug when using cursor up/down to scroll through your input history. (used to happen at the end)
- Type /playing or /tunenet to show whats playing in TuneNet. It's not that useful a feature really.. I added it by request. It's something nice to play with, just for ####s 'n giggles
- You can optionally turn on smaller tab sizes, by running wookiechat with the "smalltabs" switch. i.e. "run wookiebeta_os3 smalltabs". I'm aware that they dont always look right though
The Author thanks all users who registered WookieChat for the additional "pocket money". (cg) (Translation: ub)

Update for CygnusEd Pro 5
Today for the text editor CygnusEd Pro 5 an update has been published under the title link.
Some new features:
- If you want to load a file which already has been loaded CygnusEd asks if this file is supposed to be loaded again, if the already loaded file is supposed to be displayed or if you want to abort
- The size of all requester windows (search & replace, text input, number input) can be changed and CygnusEd will remember it
- CygnusEd can now search and replace in all opened files instead searching only in the active window
- CygnusEd can search for a word while you write it. This is called "Live Search".
- The section where you want to serach now can be limited.
Some fixed bugs:
- OS4 Final has (limited) memory protection which caused problems with CygnusEd and MetaMac because it could change files in the memory which should be constantly. This concerned loading of macro files and the ARexx-command list
- The size of the CygnusEd window does not get smaller if you open it again
- CygnusEd does not delete Auto-Save files any longer to use it for something different

Development: Blade MP3 Library 1.0
With the Blade MP3 Library you can create MP3 files within a program without the need to use the command line or the command Execute() to use an external MP3 encoder.
The library can handle RAW data (8 or 16 Bit; 32000 Hz, 44100 Hz or 48000 Hz; mono or stereo). These can be converted into a mono or stereo MP3 file with a bitrate of 32 - 320 kBits. To handle the data buffers are made available in a structure. All created MP3 files get an ID3 v1.1 tag.
System requirements: AmigaOS 2.x, MC68020 processor with MC68881-FPU
