Workbench-Ergänzung: BetterWB 2.9
BetterWB ist wie AIAB, AmiKit oder AmigaSYS eine Sammlung von Workbench-Ergänzungen für AmigaOS 3.1, welche jedoch auf übermäßigen Blickfang verzichtet und daher auch geringere Hardware-Voraussetzungen mitbringt. Zur Zielgruppe zählen somit neben Puristen und Besitzern von wenig oder gar nicht erweiterten Amigas beispielsweise auch Minimig-Nutzer.
BetterWB läuft auf jedem Amiga, wird in Form von Disketten-Abbildern bereitgestellt und benötigt neben den Original-Disketten der Workbench 3.1 (3.0 mag auch genügen, wurde jedoch nicht getestet) 8 MB Festplattenplatz.
Changes:
- CAMD.library and Midiports preferences for midi supported programs
- DMS command writes and reads its floppy images from CLI
- Gzip, the very popular multiplatform compressor is now included
- LZX is yet another compressor
- PFS3 All in one (now requires less memory for usage and autodetects large drives)
- SuperPlus has been updated and no longer shows the infamuos beta warning message
- TSGUI lets you read and write adf and dms floppy images with an easy to use interface
- WBStartup preferences enables you to select the commodities you want to run when workbench loads
- New commodities: DontShowIBorder (removes icon borders), ModePro (screen promotion) and MagicMenu (flying menus)
- Printfiles tool has been updated with plenty of features and an arexx port
- TagLiFE is a simple patch for the utility.library to install a
new set of optimized assembler routines to get a faster TagList support
- Now boot in CLI mode with maximum ram to run memory demanding games and demos by booting without startup sequence and running add44k from CLI
- Text datatype was rolled back, due to printing bugs
- Lha can now adequately work under low memory condition
- Boards.library allows proper identification of Amiga hardware
- WhichAmiga replaces showconfig, as it has plenty more features
- PatchWB solves many workbench bugs
- Many minor tweaks and bugfixes
