MorphOS: ShowGirls 0.5 released (update)
Michal 'kiero' Wozniak has released a new version of his picture viewer that has been renamed to "ShowGirls". ShowGirls uses MUI and offers many image editing functions (scale, crop, rotate, flip) and a PNG icon thumbnail generator.

New in this release:
  • Zoom reset with '0' key
  • Thumbnail generator (Tools/Thumbnailer)
  • Cropping/Autocropping (with preview enabled/disabled)
  • Possibility to scroll, zoom, change display properties of the image when the processing tool is opened.
  • Notification on currently displayed directory (list is refreshed when new files are moved in, deleted, renamed or updated)
  • Reworked Minimum/maximum window (now called Median) and implemented 3 modes: Minimum/ Maximum/ Median.
  • JPEG Saver: Optimize switch - produces a bit smaller images.
  • Devices list reworked. It's easier to use now (less entries).
  • Possibility to turn off immediate processing on slider movement (usefull for big images).
  • Contrast and Gamma adjustment.
  • Sharpening filter.
  • Flip Horizontal/Vertical
  • Color to gray conversion
  • Negative
  • Copy/Paste functionality. Unfortunately IFF/ILBM can't store alpha channel, so it's not copied
  • Possibility to start in fullscreen mode (FS or FULLSCREEN param)
  • Many small fixes and improvements. Key shortcuts, tab cycling, menu layout (thx tokai for pointing these).
Bug fixes:
  • Black image bug.
  • Save file requester remembers its last path.
  • Some typos.
  • libjpeg was hitting on corrupted files.
  • Slider position in some filters is reset after window is reopened
  • Smoothing can now be turned off for one direction (set to 0 pixels)
  • Usage from Ambient (couldn't be used as Default Tool).

Text viewer: EvenMore v0.62
The text viewer EvenMore by Chris Perver is now available in version 0.62. Mainly the plugins for RTF, HTML and AmigaGuide have been updated.

For the RTF plugin have compatibility issues been fixed, for AmigaGuide the bug with the word wrap and the plugins for HTML and Eml now understand the ANSI command *CBAR.

In the main program the quickload.txt menu list has been extended with the key words SUB and ITEM. By more intense use of the screen font and the possibility to run the program without the need of the iconify gadget should the window now look better when using special GUIs (e.g. MorphOS).

AmigaAMP 2.12 released
Thomas Wenzel released a new Version of his audio-player "AmigaAmp". Thomas writes:

"I'm almost certain that I've forgotten to fix some of the known bugs but I'm also certain that I've finally fixed some of them! :))

Some WSZ skin files have their images stored in a subdirectory rather than the top level. This is now supported. Newer versions of ID3v2 tags still can't be read but at least they don't prevent AmigaAMP from loading the classic ID3v1 tags any more.

If you've got questions please use the discussion board first. I will check it regularly." (cg)
