Tool: MySQL Simple Query Tool MySQT_0.1a
MySQL Simple Query Tool is an utility that will let you to do queries to
a MySQL database with an MUI Gui. MySQT is actually an early alpha version.
That means, it has been programmed like some Kro$oft software and will
only let you to do "SELECT" queries on small tables. Yes, I have not
implemented dynamical memory allocation yet, but this will come.
Before starting MySQT don't forget to edit icon tooltypes to fit your
database access.

Alpha version 0.1a of the MySQL GUI (MUI) 'MySQT' was released. The 'MySQL Simple Query Tool'
in this early alpha version offers the possibility to make SELECT requests from smaller
tables via GUI. The limitation for smaller tables follows from the fact that this early alpha version
still has no dynamic memory management.
It is required to enter your database's access data to the tooltypes before start.

IRC: An Amiga #channel about the future....
Hello people!
Since there just was advertising for #diehard, I would like to show
an alternative:
At irc.openproject.org there is a young channel (#amiga) that is said to be
about Ami-OpenSource (AmigaDE). For the time being there isn't much up. Some don't
have an Amiga anymore, some are Amiga Inc. employees, some develop similar projects
coming from the Amiga world, some are active for the current Amiga scene or are people like
you and me.
So, who feels like dropping in is heartily invented.

Eyetech: Information about the AmigaOne
Alan Redhouse, Eyetech, posted some
statements
about the AmigaOne regarding AmigaOS 4.0 and the boot sequence on the
AmigaOne mailing list.
«1. OS4.0 is based on OS3.9 which does need 3.1 ROMs
2. Backwards engineering/testing for OS3.0 compatibility would
add weeks onto the already late OS4.0
3. Of course some of this stuff can be put in flashrom/hard disk but
this would require a hugh effort in retesting/linking bits of code from
various sources adding further to the cost/delay of OS4.0.
4. As I have said several times before on this list the boot sequence
for the A1/OS4.0 is:
PPC boots from flash ROM & initialises A1 main board, including
any A1 graphics and any available A1 board boot devices (HD,
CDROM, SCSI, USB, etc. drivers) PPC loads 68K emulator from flash rom and
executes an emulator reset Emulator executes A1200 boot sequence which
looks round for boot devices (A1200 HD, FD, PCMCIA & A1 HD, CDROM, SCSI,
USB etc) Emulator boots OS4.0 from the highest priority boot device.
5. From OS4.2 the bootstrap loader (& main drivers) will be in the
A1 flash ROM and the 68k emulator will only look on the A1 board for
boot devices (inc USB floppies, CDROM's etc etc)
Hope this helps
Alan" - Eyetech»

A real Amiga IRC channel for real Amiga users
Amiga Users!
- Tired of going to channels on net after net searching for
some real amiga users who use real AMIGAs?
- Tired of being in channels where there seems to be an
ongoing linux or windows chat?
- Tired of being ragged on by clone owners who think your
silly to be on amiga still?
- Feel like trying a channel where amiga is the only topic
and there is talk about everything from amiga hardware to
software?
- Does the thought of an amiga emulator bother you?
- There is such a place, it's called #DIEHARD and its on
arcnet! Feel free to stop in,and be sure your using your
amiga!
If you answer yes to the above questions, then maybe this is
the channel for you. It was created by amiga users for amiga
users who were tired of emulator, windows and linux being
talked about in so called amiga channels.
Below are some popular servers to get there:
de.arcnet.vapor.com
ch.arcnet.vapor.com
se.arcnet.vapor.com
uk.arcnet.vapor.com
us.arcnet.vapor.com

Kultpower.de - server move and new AmigaJoker reviews
Kultpower.de is now placed on a much bigger server (resp. in
a bigger package at the provider), this should solve the problems with shortage
of webspace and restricted data transfer for a longer period of time.
Therefore can all review articles, that will be released from now on,
be made available in better quality (less compression).
There are also at once 22 new AmigaJoker reviews taken from the issues

Knights of the Sky, Life and Death, Lotus Turbo Challenge 2, Magic
Pockets, Manchester United Europe, Mega lo Mania, R-Type 2, Silent
Service 2, The Return of Medusa, Thunderhawk, Utopia. With these there are now
already 79 AmigaJoker reviews of Amiga classics.
Besides that you can now find in the AmigaJoker database for every game a direct
link to the details of the game at the games museum "The Legacy".
For all fans of non Amiga classics there are new PowerPlay reviews taken from
the issues 11/94 and 1/95:
Colonization (MS-DOS), CreatureShock (MS-DOS CD-ROM), DawnPatrol
(MS-DOS CD-ROM), Earthsiege (MS-DOS), Ecstatica (MS-DOS), HellonEarth
(MS-DOS), IronAssault (MS-DOS CD-ROM), KingsQuest7 (Windows CD-ROM),
Lemmings3 (MS-DOS), Lollypop (MS-DOS), MasterofMagic (MS-DOS), PoliceQuest4

Music: ProStationAudio Millenium
September 2001: ProStationAudio Millenium, T8 and Remix compatible
with SoundBlaster PCI boards.
ProStationAudio is successfully working with Creative's SoundBlaster PCI
boards installed on Mediator busboards, under AmigaOS.
The software has just passed tests at an audio production
facility, under daily working conditions. The test setup
includes a Mediator PCI busboard, SoundBlaster 128 PCI, and
VooDoo graphic card for displaying the ultra-hi-res PSA GUI.
Mediator 1200 PCI busboard
Audio hardware is accessed via AHI, drivers for additional
Creative's models are due soon (SoundBlaster Live! to start
with) by the busboard makers.
Elbox, makers of Mediator, confirm also that the PCI busboard
supports installing two PCI graphic cards. ProStationAudio
can take advantage of two display cards (and two monitors)
for increased productivity. This feature, already supported
for Zorro graphic cards, is now available also for PCI
boards.
ProStationAudio is the reference audio editing/mastering
software for AmigaOS. With this new developemnt on PCI
hardware the range of supported hardware now includes:
- Draco
- Amiga with one or two CPU, up to two graphic cards, two
monitors and any AHI-compatible audio card or stock audio
chip. Graphic and audio cards can be on Zorro or PCI busses.
ProStationAudio supports also non-AHI pro cards such as the
SoundStagePro DSP and provides direct access to NewTek Flyer,
Sunrize Studio16 and Digidesign SD audio files, beside standard
Amiga, Apple, Windows and Unix audio files includig MP3.
Informations on other PCI busboard options, such as the G-Rex
specific for PPC accelerators owners, will be published as
soon as audio drivers will be released by hardware makers.
ProStationAudio is fully hardware independent and will work
with any audio board, PCI or Zorro, provided AHI drivers are
available from hardware vendors.

CD32 Games Install Kit v4.5 released
The CD32 Games Install Kit v4.5 was just released on
the Airsoft Softwair homepage (title link).
This is the first public version of the program since
version 3.9. Until now, versions 4.0 to 4.5 were only
available for owners of the The Best Of Airsoft Softwair
Gold Edition but now the InstallKit is available as
Shareware again. The demo version can be downloaded from
the Airsoft Softwair homepage.
Since version 3.9 many things have been changed:
For example there is now a MUI GUI, the stability of Install2001
was increased and much more games are supported now, for
example Simon the Sorcerer with talkie soundtrack. Also
the integrated emulator which runs games straight from
the CD was greatly improved. Additionally the InstallKit
can now be ordered by credit card through RegNet. And finally
there is now an own section on the Airsoft Softwair homepage
which covers information about the program (in the products section).

Spiegel: Q33NY
Like probably many others I have just received a private mail which
points out something truly macabre: if you open a new document in Microsoft
Word, enter the alleged flight number of one of the machines which were
steered into the World Trade Center, Q33NY, and set font 'Windings'
in size 48, something incredible could be seen. I have made some investigation
on the web and found an interesting German article by 'Spiegel online'
which you can read at the title link. The flight number Q33NY is wrong,
and it is no hidden message but black demagogy.

group. The subscribing is only possible via groups.yahoo.com (just enter there
amigaxl or amithlon in the search field) because the national access doesn't know
these groups. A real stupid error of Yahoogroups.
Important hint: we recommend to discuss all questions in the group amigaxl as
most of the people certainly can't know which emulator they'll use. More
comprehensive instructions will follow tomorrow.
The dealing with the questions runs at full speed.
19. Sept. 2001: We are right now dealing with the countless questions that were

Amithlon/AmigaXL to make the advantages and limitations more apparent. Please

WinUAE Homepage (ANF)
|
Emulator: WinUAE 0.8.17 release 1
Since yesterday is in download area of the WinUAE
homepage the WinUAE 0.8.17 release 1 available.
Changes made in version WinUAE 0.8.17 release 1:
- FIXED: Various AGA and chipset-related fixes. (Bernd#1, Toni Wilen)
- FIXED: .GZ support in floppy dialog doesn't cause corruption. (Timothy)
- FIXED: Updated sprite-collision logic which fixes Leander, Archon 1 and 2,
Menace, etc. (Toni)
- FIXED: Updated disk-emulation code, for higher compatability. Also now
supports .fdi and high-density .adf images. (Toni, Adil Temel)
- FIXED: 60Hz support in Dynablaster and BC Kid (Toni Wilen)
- FIXED: BSD-Socket emulation is mostly working, although bugs still exist.
(Bernd#3)
- FIXED: Picasso96 screens smaller than their display-mode would have crap
in their left-hand-border if you grabbed the screen's title-bar and
moved the screen to the right.
- FIXED: Updated copy of rtg.library, including more patches. (Bernd#3)
- FIXED: You can set the WinUAE resolution in full-screen to whatever you
desire. Especially useful so that you set your full-screen size to
match your desktop size, and it will prevent all your desktop icons
from moving around after exitting WinUAE. (me, Georg)
- FIXED: Stupid sound_channels=0 stuff in config-files works properly.
- FIXED: Stupid gfx_center_xxx=yes/no stuff in config-files works properly.
- FIXED: Selecting an item in the Hard Drives page of the GUI and then
moving its position in the list now leaves the item highlighted.
- FIXED: Detect OS version early, and inform the user appropriately instead
of crashing. Windows NT is no longer a supported OS for WinUAE.
- FIXED: Various little off-by-one pixel errors in the GUI.
- FIXED: MIDI in/out lists in the Ports page of GUI were behaving strangely.
- FIXED: Floppy-disc emulation change to allow Shadow of the Beast Trainer
to work. (Toni Wilen)
- FIXED: Small change in MIDI support so that closing MIDI and then
reopening it will work properly. (Bernd Roesch)
- FIXED: Call ahi_install in main.c. No Amiga-side AHI driver yet.
- FIXED: MIDI-input doesn't have the concept of a "default device", unlike
MIDI-output. Changed the GUI and programming accordingly.
- FIXED: MIDI-output now does the right things with the serial-port after
each written byte, which allows some other programs to finally
work (MusicX, Deluxe Music, etc.)
- ADDED: New hook function in uaelib for checking on removable drive state.
- ADDED: Disk-change status is now tracked via WM_DEVICECHANGE notifications
which allows "run >nil: uaediskchange cd0:" in the startup-sequence
to work properly. Eject a CD-ROM, and the Amiga knows about it.
Insert a new CD-ROM, and the Amiga knows about it. Woo-hoo!
NOTE: Probably really buggy.
- ADDED: New collision-modes, fast-copper mode (not save-able with config).
- ADDED: State-save support. (Toni Wilen)
- ADDED: Option in Sound page of GUI to enable/disable synchronized sound.
- ADDED: Printing of DDCAPS info for display-driver, to help diagnostics.
- ADDED: FDI disk-image support (Toni Wilen)
- CHANGED: Tweaked the sound-code yet again, hopefully will get less out of
sync. (Jose Gil, myself)
- CHANGED: Add PC Drives no longer adds the floppy-drives. If you want access
to A:, then you'll have to add it manually in the GUI.
- CHANGED: Added ability to allocate larger amount of ZorroIII memory.
(Bernd#3)
- CHANGED: Added ability to allocate larger amount of RTG (Picasso96) memory.
(Bernd#3)
- CHANGED: Removed Vertical Blank Synchronization (VSync) support in Flip
calls. This should increase synchronization and performance in
full-screen mode, but may introduce some tearing/artifacting.
- CHANGED: Use the system "hand" cursor when pointing at web-links in the
About page (if available). (Oscar Sillani)
- CHANGED: Use Tahoma font in About page of GUI.
- CHANGED: Use up/down icons in the HardDisk page of GUI. (Oscar Sillani)

Strategy game: Knights and Merchants (Mac) shipping
Realtime strategic economy simulation Knights and Merchants is now shipping
for the Mac. Knights and Merchants recreates the era of the Middle Ages. The
player takes on the role of an ordinary captain in the king's Palace guard
who finds himself responsible for the defense of the last loyal province.
You, the player, must win back all those provinces which once belonged to
your king. You have to manufacture different products, making use of
numerous buildings and producer goods of the Middle Ages period. One result
of your productive labor is the manufacturing of weapons and armor. But your
success or failure depends mainly on the structure and organization of your
economy. An efficient organization increases production, while a badly
organized structure will cause non-stop delays.
Features:
- about 25 different types of buildings , including horse stables, farms and
schools
- over a dozen different types of characters such as serfs, miners or
winemakers
- 10 different types of military units including archers, Knights and
pikemen
- realistic landscape display using complex Gouraud Shading techniques
- production processes portrayed in detailed animation (watch your horses
grow)
- rendered cutscenes
- german localisation
- onscreen hints and tutorial mode provide easy guidance to get started
- multiplayer Mode for upto 6 players in LAN
- 20 singleplayer missions
- 10 multiplayer maps
Knights and Merchants comes in fully localised english, french, german and
spanish versions.
The distribution in Germany is done by the company Arktis. More
Information about Knights and Merchants can be found in the project area on our
pages (title link) or under
http://www.knightsandmerchants.de.

Sound card: Realtime effects for Delfina
Who's owning a Delfina sound card will receive some nice realtime effects
with "DelfLuxe", such like filters (band-passes, low-passes, flanger, allpas-phaser),
reverberation, distorter, similar to the effects of my sound synthesis program Assampler.
Who additionally has a MIDI interface can access the parameter from MIDI devices, too, e.g.
the claviature, the pitch-bender or the modulation-wheel. Furthermore it is possible to
combine the software modules of the card using "DelfSetPipeMui", which has a MUI interface.

Virus Help Denmark: xfdmaster.library Version 39.13
Dirk Stöcker updated his xfdmaster.library which is very important, since almost
any antivirus software requires it for unpacking and archiving before and after
virus tests. Here are the details:
Name: xfdmaster.library v39.13
Archive name: xfdmaster.lha
Archive size: 163.510 Bytes
Release date: 17. September 2001
Programmer: Dirk Stöcker
Xfdmaster.library info:
The XFD system is for single file decrunching. It can be compared to
XAD system, which is for file extraction from archives! They do
different work, but are used together often.
This software package allows you to decrunch almost every packed file
known on the Amiga. It consists of the xfdmaster.library as the brain
and a couple of programs that offer certain functions to the user.
The xfdmaster.library is a standard Amiga shared, runtime library. It
works with Kickstart V33+ and offers applications the possibility to
directly support any crunched files.
Other than the predecessor decrunch.library, the xfdmaster.library has
a more flexible interface, offers the possibility to decrunch already
loaded program segments, supports external decrunchers, is able to
unlink 4EB9/4EF9- and text-linked files and can scan for crunched data
in any memory area.
