AmigaZone: StAHG update available
StAHG (the Standard Amiga Help Guide) has received an update (version 1.1). This update is free, and replaces the previous version.

Bugfix: This version corrects an error in which some documents could be missed during the scanning process.

StAHG is a free utility from AmigaZone as a gift to the Amiga Community. It scans the HELP assign for various forms of documentation and builds a single "WorkBench.guide" with links to each document. The Workbench.guide is accessable by pressing the "Help" key under AmigaOS 3.5 or higher.

We hope you enjoy StAHG,

Targhan
Programmer, AmigaZone

Catweasel Software Updates, X-Surf News
The Windows-drivers for the Catweasel ISA have been extended by some features. Mainly support for the new Catweasel MK3 PCI/Flipper has been added. Also in the archive: a driver for Windows 2000 and Windows XP that makes use of a keyboard that's connected to the Catweasel MK3 PCI/Flipper.

Download: cw_win_pci.zip (108 KB)

The Amiga-version of the driver has also been adapted to the new controller, the new multidisk.device V3.62 now supports the Catweasel MK3 in a Zorro slot, or on any clockport of an Amiga. This device is prepared to support the Catweasel MK3 in a PCI slot of an emulated Amiga (for example Amithlon or Amiga Forever).

Download: mdisk362.zip (22 KB)

Many people have asked for a picture of the new controller, because it's hard to imagine how the same board can fit in the Zorro slot and in a PCI slot. Here's a picture of the controller, taken out of the running production. It shows the bare board without the metal bracket and the second joystick connector.

cwmk3.jpg (113 KB)

Good news for all Amiga users who want to bring their computer to a network: The most successful networking card in the Amiga market has been updated, and the price will be lower. The reason for the continuous success of the board might be it's software support: The X-Surf 2 will remain the only networking card on the market that comes with PPPoE drivers - these are necessary for most DSL modems. As opposed to the older model, the new X-Surf 2 does not have a BNC connection any more, all other technical details remain the same. If you need this connector you should be quick, because the last boards have already been shipped to our resellers a few weeks ago. (ps)

Back to the Roots: New games, a.o.t. Karate Kid 2 and scans
With permission of the copyright owners, Back to the Roots puts up original Amiga games for download and furthermore offers freeware games, demos, musical pieces, scans of game packages etc. In the current newsletter, Back to the Roots are reporting about new items on the site. In particular, sports games have been added:

"Now that the summer here is over, we have prepared a couple of sports events to test your physical shape. Get down to it:

Arms and legs are being exercised with 'Shadow Fighter' and 'Karate Kid 2'. Thanks to 'Empire Soccer', football skills can be proven. If you want to show us how skilful you can handle a motorbike, 'Super Hang On' is just the thing. Btw, thanks to permission of Tynesoft, you can start in a whole lot of different disciplines with 'Summer Olympiad' and 'Buffalo Bill's Rodeo Games'. And to avoid the mind rusting in with all those muscle games, we have provided you with 'K240', 'Millenium 2.2' and lots of other games.

Something really extraordinary awaits you with 'Exile'. Here you take on the identity of a fully trained astronaut. And for phasing out after all this sport the cute 'Tearaway Thomas' is presenting himself, with whom you will be faster on the way than with Sonic.

This update also contains scans of mostly rare game packaging (e.g. Quik and Silva, or XR35), as well as two articles about the Amiga demo groups Ephidrena and Loonies!

Games, demos, music and more. What else do you want? Just have a look into 'Back to the Roots'." (sd) (Translation: cb)

Text viewer: EvenMore V0.60
On 15th November 2002, version 0.60 of the text viewer 'EvenMore' has been released. In this version the plugin system for the EvenMore preferences has been updated. Chris Perver writes:

"The new plugin system will allow users to create user settings in the preference window for their own plugins. EvenMore automatically loads and saves the plugin settings whenever the main settings are loaded or saved. This will allow more complicated plugins to be created.

An example of this plugin has been created for the Generic2Text plugin, to allow you to open a binary file in readable or hexadecimal view.

The other plugins have had to be updated to support a change in the plugin system and in the EvenMore executable."

Various plugins are available for download on the plugin subpage of the EvenMore home page.

GoldED Studio AIX: service pack 3
For the allround text editor GoldED Studio AIX is since yesterday the service pack 3 available for registered users. The most important new feature is the integration of the gcc compiler. This complete software package is needed for the C/C++ development with GNU C. Via GED is the programming environment integrated within minutes into the editor using a comfortable setup program.

Because of the huge size of gcc is this update only deliverable as a replacement CD: since the last version have 67 MB just in form of data been added. The costs are 10.- Euro. (ps) (Translation: wk)
