Software-News until 21.12.2009
Text viewer: EvenMore 0.69
EvenMore is a textviewer written in AmigaE and by Chris Perver. Changes since the last version:
- Modified exec list sorting to receive a list length variable, so it doesn't need to be counted first. Also modified Dir2Text plugin to accept this
- Was freeing information bar pattern data by mistake when launching an external program
- Pär Boberg has updated his Swedish catalog file following the changes made to the preferences
- Added two new escape code sequences. ESC[52m will set the displayed font in EvenMore to the user selected font, while ESC[53m will set the displayed font to the default system font. This will allow plugins such as the Generic2Text plugin to switch to a uniform system font when viewing hexadecimal files.
- Updated Generic2Text plugin to use the system font when viewing hexadecimal files
MorphOS: Drawerball 0.8q
Tom 'Amigaharry' Duin has published Drawerball 0.8q which is a very early version of a simple file manager.
AmigaOS 4: Modula 2-development environment AgletM2PPC
AgletM2PPC is a complete Modula 2-development environment inclusive compiler. Only a text editor is required (GoldEd, CygnusEd and TurboText are supported). Changes since the last release:
Compiler:
- The compiler itself is now PPC native, and is
significantly faster!
- The size limit on procedures is now probably large enough
for any sane program
- A bug which caused extremely excessive stack use was fixed.
Now 40 or 50K should be enough for almost any compile
- Some code generation errors were fixed
- Fixed problem with Opaque pointers resolved within the
IMPLEMENTATION module by imported pointer types
- Added compiler warning: OpenArrayCopyWarn
- SDK 53.8+ now using the GNU assembler v2.18 vs. 2.14
in earlier SDKs. This required that some instructions be
output slightly differently
- Certain "recording" versions of FP instructions are no
longer generated, since Sam 440ep/flex does not support
them
(Pre)Linker
- Mod2Lnk recognizes a "-stack" switch and inserts the
"$STACK:xxxx" cookie into executables.
The .asm files no longer need be kept around. All dependency
information is in the object file now. Asm files are written
to T:
- Added the "-g" debug switch, which causes both exported and
non-exported symbols to be put into the Elf symbol table so
that SymbolsRTS can find them as well
M2IDE
- Option "Make Icons?" added for the project file save
- Fixed problem of GR on exit if M2IDE changed its current
directory
- Multiselect now supported for the "Misc Files" file
requester
Amiga Modules
- Added Definition files for about 25 more Amiga Libraries,
and all supplied Amiga definition files (over 150 of them) were
brought up to the v53.13 SDK
- The TextEditor gadget is now working much better, as the
Definition file now adjusts to a glitch in the SDK's .h
file
Aglet Modules
- System module SymbolsRTS was introduced for better debugging
of exception locations
- CLI program arguments and Workbench ToolTypes are
transparently (almost) unified when the ArgsSupport module
is used to read startup arguments
- Many improvements in the (experimental) SimpleXXX modules
(SimpleGUI, SimpleScreens, SimpleMenus, SimpleGraphics, etc)
- new modules: BigInt, for 155 bit integers; IconSupport, for
writing out icons
Filesharing: Testing Amigift 2.0 for free
Amigift is a P2P file sharing system based on the giFT-demon (Gnutella, FastTrack, OpenFT) ported from the Unix-system and which has a MUI-based graphical user-interface called "GiftMUI" (screenshot). The author now offers a key with which you can test all the features of the shareware program for a limited time for 30 minutes per session.
AmigaOS 4: Astronomy program Digital Universe for 40% discount
The astronomy program Digital Universe can be ordered for a discount of 40% until 1.1.2010.
