`03.May.2003` Amiforce (ANF)	Amiforce: new Amiblitz2.32 distribution Today was a new full distribution of Amiblitz2.32 uploaded. In the last distribution had unfortunately been some errors included. Besides, there had been no up-to-date German versions of Amiblitz2 (compiler) and PED (editor) in the archive. Because of these in conveniences was this archive completely removed. The new distribution now contains completely updated German versions, the guide has been enhanced und has been translated completely into German. Furtheron were some errors in the install script fixed. Amiblitz2.32 brings together with bugfixes the following improvements/enhancements: Fixed Gadtools.lib that i.e. removes the limitation to four colors in shape gadgets. MUI is now completely supported thanks to MUI2.res. AHI is now really supported. OpenGL is now via StormMesa possible. Regarding the last point it is important to consider the stack size in the Amiblitz2 icon of at least 300 KB. This must not be lowered in no case if OpenGL shall be used. A GL demo is included in the distribution. Archives Digger95 and Diamantus corrected: The game Digger95 seemed to be transferred incompletely during the upload. This has now been fixed. In the Diamantus archive had been two different versions. This has possibly irritated some users. The older version was removed and only the most up-to-date version remains in the archive. The archives were compressed with LHA level6 unfortunately causing some problems while decompressing with the XAD.library and older versions of LHA. In the future this shall not happen again. In the next days we'll place finally something in the music section again. Had been calm in this area a long time. ;-) (ps) (Translation: wk) [News message: 03.

`03.May.2003` morphos-news.de	Sequencer: port of Barsnpipes for MorphOS According to a message on morphos-news.de is the MIDI sequencer Barsnpipes, once commercial software and nowadays developed as freeware by Alfred Faust, being ported to MorphOS. Read here his notes on the port: "I've just started an attempt to port BarsnPipes to the MorphOS - Pegasos - system. It is near unbelievable how fast this system is. Compiling is done 20 - 30 times faster than on my 68040/40-AMIGA. The loading process of the 500 pics for BarsnPipes at startup is done in 1.5 seconds (!). Because porting to MorphOS is real a hard work, I must terminate the further development on the AMIGA-line for the moment. I don't know if I can port BarsnPipes completely to MorphOS ... but I try it." (nba) (Translation: wk) [News message: 03.

`02.May.2003` Constantinos Nicolakakis (E-Mail)	Tool: SRename 3.7.0 final version Constantinos Nicolakakis has published the final version 3.7.0 of the tool 'SRename'. With this tool which works from OS3.0 on you can comfortably rename files. In the new version the following features have been added and bugs fixed: New features in this version: Automatic renaming when new filename already exists. "Noautoren" (nar) option has been added to deactivate it. "Noautopsep" (nap), "Noautossep" (nas), "Autopsep" (aup), "Autossep" (aus) options added to control the handling of prefix and suffix separators when prefix and suffix is created or deleted. "Addonly" (ao) secondary argument added to "Prefix", "Main" and "Suffix" selectors. When used it prevents existing components from being modified, and components are added if they don't already exist. Bugfixes: Redirection of filename and comment with "Tofilename" and "Tocomment" can now work in Immediate and Reuse (cached) mode as required by the user, instead of the previous fixed partially cached mode. Several core bugs fixed that prevented proper renaming with certain action and immediate/reuse mode combinations. Parser bug fixed occasionally broke the parsing process if commands with secondary arguments were used. Some memory misallocations fixed. Other changes: Now the usage text is printed if no arguments are given. Download: SRename370.lha (ps) (Translation: dr) [News message: 02.
