`25.May.2022`	MorphOS: Screenbar-Plugin TopTasks 1.6 TopTasks.sbar is a Screenbar-Plugin for MorphOS that shows the task that is currently eating the most CPU time in the screen title. When the titlebar object is clicked it opens a window displaying the top tasks (from 5 to 25) currently hogging all your precious CPU time. Furthermore it can display a history of the top tasks of the last configureable number of seconds/minutes/hours. Changes: The top tasks window opens now exactly below the screen title bar instead of using its own bottom border for position. Text displayed in the screen title can now be rendered off-center vertically by specifiying a pixel offset. Number of Top Tasks shown can be configured from 5, 10, 15, 20 to 25 tasks now. Previously it was fixed to 10 tasks. Now displays the rank of the tasks in the first column. Top Tasks and History Tasks CPU loads can now also be colour coded ranging from green over yellow to red (see settings). Comes with a real Installer script courtesy of InstallerGen by Rob Cranley now. Now also shows the respective task priorities in history list. Global task info group in the TopTask window can now be hidden (see settings). The TopTask window can now be made dragable (see settings). Width calculation has been updated to be a bit closer to the configured number of characters in settings. Number of entries held in History list can now be adjusted from 60 seconds up to 24 hours where 1 entry equals 1 second. Once an entry was selected in history list it was not possible to deselect it making the list always keep the entry in the visible area scrolling the added top entries out. To deselect the entry now double click any entry in the list. (dr) [News message: 25. May. 2022, 06:39] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version]
`25.May.2022`	Arcade game 'Jump!': Demo version 1.10 available At the end of last year we had the opportunity to (test) the alpha version of 'Jump!', a conversion of the game Yoomph, originally written for the Atari. The Polish developer Markus Duda now has released a second demo version (amiga-news.de reported) which has lower chip memory usage and provides some minor bugs fixes. An Amiga 1200 with 14MHz and 4MB FastRAM is required. The demo version offers three playable levels. The game can be pre-ordered at the title link as a digital variant for 29 Euros or as a 'boxed version' for 45 Euros plus shipping (depending on the destination).

`24.May.2022`	Replacement keyboards for A500/A1200: Update on Kipper2k project After an abundant year, the American dealer 'Amiga On The Lake' has published new information about the status of the Kipper2k replacement keyboards for the Amiga 500 and 2000 (amiga-news.de reported): All pre-orders would be expected to be fulfilled by the end of June 2022, or mid-July 2022 at the latest. Staffing shortages and delays in receiving components would have further worsened the already tight schedule. After the pre-orders were all processed, they would get to work building keyboards for stock and selling them as soon as they were available. All customers would have received an email asking for confirmation of address information. If any pre-orderer has not received this, they should email Jeff with their full name, order number (if available) and shipping address. (dr) [News message: 24.
