ppclibemu is an emulation of the ppc.library and the PowerUp kernel under WarpOS by Frank Wille. An own ELF-LoadSeg patch is contained and therefore allows it many (some?) PowerUp applications to start like under the original environment. Programs that work don't show any significant speed loss. Some are indeed faster than on the original kernel.

John Sinclair Lexicon for Amiga?
Some time ago the publishers at BASTEI released a lexicon CD-ROM about the most successful horror series in the world, "Ghost hunter John Sinclair" by Jason Dark. The CD-ROM bases on HTML and would therefore for AMIGA users interesting, too. Indeed many changes would have to be done in the source code so that 'Amiga Society' likes to find out via a poll whether there's existing enough interest in this fantastic CD-ROM and whether the AMIGA browser optimization would be worth it.

iFusion Support
After a long time of waiting the iMac emulator iFusion is available, now. With this the entire world of software a for the iMac opens to the Amiga users. To be able to use iFusion an Amiga PPC-card and a 'new world' MAC operating system is required. iFusion along with the operating system MAC OS9.1 can be delivered at a special price.

KDH Datentechnik is distributor of iFusion in Germany. To ensure smooth distribution KDH Datentechnik and Eternity are co-operating. Eternity took the task of iFusion support in Germany.

Applications and games for the iMAC will be tested by NoRiscNoFun and play!Amiga and both will determine if such are runnable under iFusion. Test results will be published and summarized in a iFusion compatibility list. iFusion, the tested MAC games and applications will be available at the online shops of Eternity and KDH Datentechnik.

The Amiga sources are to find at Aminet, original sources are to find at stlport.org, and documentations are at sgi.com:

Aminet: Flash-Update for PPC-Cards a Fake
The flush-update of PPC-cards (flashupdates.lha, size 940kbyte) which was uploaded on April 17th, 2001 is a fake which was not written by Ralph 'Laire' Schmidt being the author of PPC-software as he confirmed.

Ralf: "No..i haven't uploaded it. I notified the aminet admins to remove it."

Matthias Scheler, who is the co-admin of the Aminet, confirmed to amiga-news.de that the supposed ppc-update has been removed.

Each user who downloaded and installed the flash update is advised to remove it and to control the integrity of the software by using a current anti-virus-software because it is possible that it is a virus or a Trojan.

Ralph Schmidt furthermore confirmed that he would never upload PPC-updates to the Aminet. The only sources for his Flash-Updates are:

Amiga Arena News: KidHTML Full Version
In co-operation with Marcio Esper Amiga Arena makes possible the unlimited use of the full version 1.26 of KidHTML. With KidHTML you can create HTML-documents without having a lot of experiences.

KidHTML stays being shareware and can be registered over Fun Time World which is the partner of Amiga Arena. This modus has been chosen so that many users do not have to send smaller amounts to the author to Brasilia but a total amount can be sent. Amiga Arena wants to support foreign authors with it and appeal to the honesty of the users. You can find further information in the download area under "Vollversionen".

Tools: Choowin V1.1 Available
There is a an improved version v1.1 of Choowin. The design of the menus has been reworked and sub-menus have been added to the start-menu. Other characteristics can be now configured above all the background pattern and the aligment of the text.
Download: choowin.lha - 32 kB

Choowin is a small help program starting programs and putting windows to the foreground and activating them. It is comparable with a task-manager. You simply push one of the buttons in a corner of the Workbench-window and then choose either the program or the window title in the appearing list. With the tooltypes you can define the position of Choowin and the size of the appearing window and can decide which windows are to be displayed. The programs in the start-menu are also defined with tooltypes. Choowin is freeware and requires at least AmigaOS 3.5.

On the website joecard.com which is specially made for PC-cards by Met@box you can now officially read what this have to mean:

»In the procedure of restructuring of Met@box AG to a producer of Set-Top-Boxes the departments of Macintosh and Amiga has been closed down with effect from March 30st in 2001. All developments has been closed down.«

3ivx News
In future licence fees will be charged for using 3ivx as the following press release supposes. Private users pay 10$, commercial users pay 400$. 3ivx is a video-compression-format for MPEG4 which is used by some Amiga-programs as SoftCinema and MooVId.

Press Release: 3ivx, solving the streaming video problem
Truly multi-platform MPEG-4 video means encode anywhere, play everywhere

April 17, 2001 - Happy Machines releases its third preview version of the 3ivx codec. 3ivx takes video compression to a higher level. This is the first release which includes a free personal test encoder as well as a version for MacOS X.
<http://www.3ivx.com/>
<http://www.hollywood.org/3ivx/>

"Streaming video is very important for our customers," says Marcel Bor of On The Road, an Equant Service Provider "That's why I am extremely pleased with the quality of 3ivx movies, even better than Real 8!"

This release includes a lot of enhancements resulting in improved video playback while maintaining small file sizes and low bit-rates. Technically this translates into:
- Scheduled Asynchronous Decompression
- Advanced frame queue management
- FrameCache and Flextime Frame management
- Hardware Accelerated YUV Output

The encoder and the decoder are available on the site for immediate download. There are 3 versions of the codec available, a free test codec, a $10 version for personal use and a $400 version for commercial use.

3ivx is a natural video compression system that is compliant with MPEG-4v3. The strengths lay in its open architecture, multi-platform approach (Windows, MacOS, Linux/Unix, BeOS and Amiga) and it's high compression ratio which compresses video's and moving images to one thirteenth (1:13) of the size of a DVD or MPEG-2 movie while maintaining approximately the same quality.

Happy Machines is a Belgian company that represents a creative team and a large international network of inventors, software and hardware developers, designers in various fields such as imaging, satellite communications, artificial intelligence, machinery etc., which has contacts with top-manufacturers worldwide. The company is also member of the MPEG-group and is an Inmarsat partner. It is orientated on project development and related intellectual properties.

Software for Studying Languages for the AMIGA
At the title link you will find software to learn: Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Russian, English, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish with the AMIGA (CD-ROM)

This software is not new, it is more like a sales out, but there is no such software then so it is worth to mention. I have bought this software and like it.

This is a training for vocabulary and speaking (with digitalized voices), and for Asian and Russian languages with the special letters.

The vocabulary is presented by pictures, the computer prints on a click on a thing the respective word (with translation if wanted) and plays a sample of the word. A training/quiz is available, too.

Also there is a short summary of the most important rules of grammar (in English). For the version to learn Japanese you can download a demo version from the website.

The programme is available in different versions for OS1.x and OS 2.x and higher, but even this is some years old, so it will open on PAL or NTSC screen. You can promote it without any problem to any screen mode you like, it runs even on a 68060 and with OS 3.9 and MagicMenu.
