The Update of the Webbrowser AWeb APL Lite as Betaversion 3.5.08 for AmigaOS, AmigaOS 4 and MorphOS is linked to the header available.

  • Clearing the source code and adaption to GCC (there is still a lot to do)
  • rx_rx(): free() gives free the correct ressources
  • Update of the Locale-Strings
  • Many further minor changes

Versions for AmigaOS 3 (68020/68040) and MorphOS available at sourceforge.net. (cg) (Translation: dr)

AfA 3.93.1 does not create the cybergraphics.library because the version delivered by CyberGraphX and Picasso 96 supports the new functions. So some memory is saved and under AfA you can use the program SaferPatches as well as maybe further patches of this kind. (snx) (Translation: dr)

SN-AnlagenArchiv 0.803 released, SN-EuroArchiv ceased
SN-AnlagenArchiv is an assets management for gold, silver, platinum and palladium. Steffen Nitz has now published version 0.803, which contains besides a small bugfix in the graphic user interface the up-to-date stock exchange prices of the four noble metals up to 7 April 2006.

A further development of SN-EuroArchiv is for the time being to be ceased completely, as the author Steffen Nitz has lost interest in euro coins.

Now he only collects gold coins and silver bullions, so the further development of SN-AnlagenArchiv is guaranteed. Mediaeval coins of the town of Stralsund are still being collected, for what a further development of SN-MünzArchiv II is being considered. (cg) (Translation: iw)

Linked to the header is for nostalgic people a modified record of a IRC-meeting with Dave 'hazy' Haynie from the 1. May 1994 - therefore two days after the official insolvency of Commodore.

As one of the last 22 employers of Commodore in West Chester, he reported at that time about the actual situation and the undesirable development which was responsible for the decline of the computer-manufactor and beside about the "Deathbed Vigil"-Video which was filmed several days before by him.

AmigaOne: Centralized order for onboard soundchips
The AC97 soundchip (Sigmatel STAC9752T) installed on the first few batches of AmigaOne motherboards has been removed in later production runs as it seemed that it wouldn't work anyway due to a hardware bug.

But Davy Wentzler and Stephen Brookes proved later on that the problem could be solved in software and released a working audio driver.

Until now, people that wanted to fit the missing chip onto their AmigaOne motherboard were facing the problem that said chip didn't seem to be available anymore. Costel 'Cyborg' Mincea now found a dealer that still has the Sigmatel STAC9752T in stock.

The final price for one single Sigmatel STAC9752T chip depends on the volume of the order, this is why Mincea now asks all interested users to contact him until 17.April via e-mail and tell him the quantity they would be interested in. Mincea stresses the fact that this email is not a real order, he only needs to gauge the actual demand to to get a quotation from the dealer.

On April 18th, Mincea will ask the dealer for the price of an order with the ascertained quantities, end users will then be able to order chips from him.

Warning: The AC97 soundchip is not socketed, it needs to be soldered to the AmigaOne motherboard by the end user. You should be very familiar with that kind of soldering jobs, otherwise you should better ask somebody who is. (cg) (Translation: aj)

Some of the new features are:

  • Move of code base from 1.3.1 to 1.4.1 which has many improvments (see changelog)
  • Added "Connection Bar" for full screen mode for easy iconify / disconnect / screen flip (hint: press CTRL L-Amiga and move the mouse - it will move the bar)
  • Added "Public Screen" option in GUI
  • Various speed optimizations
In addition, the GUI is now available as a separate archive and can be downloaded by anyone at the title link.

APC&TCP takes distribution of CygnusEd
APC&TCP is proud to announce that it has taken the distribution of the well known text editor CygnusEd. CygnusEd will be able to run on the classic Amiga and AmigaOS 4. A version supporting MorphOS is planned. In only a few weeks the program will be available. The support homepage for CygnusED will be online in a few days aswell. About CygnusEd Professional Release 5 The maybe most famous text editor for developers was developed by Bruce Dawson, Colin Fox & Steve LaRocque (CygnusSoft Software) 20 years ago and was originally published by themselves. Already at that time CygnusEd has been known for its speed and solidness. CygnusEd has been developed even further in the following years and was one of the first programs with an ARexx interface and the first Amiga text editor with Undo/Redo functions. Many Amiga developers grew up with CygnusEd and a lot of software for the Amiga was developed using CygnusEd. The last version 4 of CygnusEd was published in 1997 and was a fully reworked version adapted to AmigaOS 3.1. The new version 5 of CygnusEd has been enriched with new functions and it is even faster and more solid. The helping tool "Ed" has been rewritten completely from scratch and is supplied with CygnusEd including the complete sources. Many old restrictions and flaws of CygnusEd have been eliminated. Version 5 is also the first version ported completely with all helping tools to the PowerPC processors and one of the first completely adapted commercial products for AmigaOS 4.
