`04.Mar.2023`	Installer replacement: InstallerLG 1.0.2 for AROS, AmigaOS 4 and MorphOS Ola 'sodero' Söder's InstallerLG is a reimplementation of the "Installer"! utility included with AmigaOS as of version 2.1. InstallerLG aims to be fully compatible with the original as described in the V44.10 documentation. Most resource limitations found in the Commodore implementation are gone, and the GUI has been replaced by a MUI / Zune based one. In contrast to the original AmigaOS implementation, the "effect" statement is treated by InstallerLG like any other statement. This means that it is possible to change effect during the installation. The "database" function supports a new attribute, 'os', which enables scripts to recognise the operating system without the guesswork of many multi-platform installers. As the author goes on to write, InstallerLG is compatible with the latest installer for AmigaOS 3 and it has functions that are not available in the AmigaOS 4 installer, for example "effect", "reboot", "back", "trace", "retrace" and many more.

`03.Mar.2023`	Hyperion Entertainment released AmigaOS 3.2.2 Press release Hyperion Entertainment CVBA is proud to provide the second free update of AmigaOS 3.2. This new update demonstrates the developers' continued dedication to ensure that AmigaOS 3.2 is the most capable and most stable operating system ever for 68K based Amigas. If you do not already own a copy of AmigaOS 3.2, there is now even more reason to get one from your favourite dealer! The team of developers and testers have worked tirelessly ever since the release of AmigaOS 3.2.1 on fixing bugs and implementing a number of new features. The highlights of the new features and fixes of AmigaOS 3.2.2 are as follows: TextEdit has seen several improvements to its extension interface, and has gained an "About" menu item; "Showconfig" now shows 68060 revision; "IconEdit" now notifies the user if someone else modifies the icon file that is being edited. And pressing the help key brings up help. The whole color handling of colorful icons has been improved so icons can no longer degrade. Users may end up in a situation wherein it will look worse than on a perfect display, but it will not degrade the icon. As such the dreaded "downgrade" dialog doesn't happen anymore, but in some cases "IconEdit" will open on a separate screen "Kickstart" can now boot with earlier Workbench and icon library versions if they are present on the boot volume. This allows for installation of the ROM whilst retaining the ability to boot any AmigaOS version from 3.1 to 3.9, before installation of AmigaOS 3.2 on a volume The sketchboard.gadget has seen some speed improvements, that should be noticeable when using IconEdit The listbrowser.gadget has had a complete overhaul, making the file much smaller, and a bit faster The layout.gadget has had a complete overhaul The window.class has had a complete overhaul The RAM disk has had a complete overhaul so it is much less likely to cause issues. Improved "Locale" support Updated version of boards.library Update 2 for AmigaOS 3.2 is available for download. Hyperion wishes to extend its heartfelt thanks and appreciation to the AmigaOS 3.x development team as well as the beta-testers for their ceaseless efforts. If YOU want to support our efforts further, please head over to our AmigaOS merchandise store. (dr) [News message: 03.
