ReAction GUI for XAD: Avalanche 2.2 for AmigaOS 3 and 4
Chris Young's Avalanche is a ReAction-based graphical user interface for the unarchiving system XAD, which also supports the xfdmaster.library and can search for viruses using the xvs.library. Since version 2.1, simple editing of LhA/Zip archives also is possible (Zip requires zip.library - only under AmigaOS 4). The developer has written his tool explicitly for AmigaOS 3.2.1, but has also tested it under AmigaOS 4. Changes:
- Visual improvements
- Added ability to use AISS images (on OS4)
- Added option to check for updates
- Fix the display of current settings in the prefs window
- Fix snapshot position and add a warning
- Fixed some Enforcer hits

Dock: QDockLE v1.31
Sami Vehmaa's start bar "QDock" works with semi-transparent backgrounds and animated icons, which requires increased memory and CPU consumption and is therefore primarily intended for emulated Amigas (YouTube video). With QDockLE, he has now also released a version for less powerful Amigas: graphics card, 2 MB RAM and a 68030 processor are required. (dr)
