Workbench enhancement: BetterWB 3.3
Similar to AIAB, AmiKit or AmigaSYS, BetterWB is a collection of Workbench enhancements for AmigaOS 3.1, which are useful but rather simple and therefore require low hardware configuration. It is meant for e.g. purists and users of low end Amigas or Minimig users.
BetterWB runs on any Amiga and is provided as disk images. It requires the original disks of Workbench 3.1 (may also work under 3.0, but was not tested) and 8 MB harddrive memory.
Changes:
- Updated icon.library to version 46.4.332
- Added showboards command so that we can detect some ACA accelerators (WhichAmiga fails with some of them)
- Added PowerSnap commodity for enhanced clipboard functionality
- Redit 1.8 replaces the aging Ed and gives you much more functionality
- Added a new "IconSet" preferences app that lets you switch between different built-in icon types
- Plus many more fixes and minor enhancements

DigiBooster 3: Open Source Portable DigiBooster 3 Replayer released
Press release: After succesfull introduction of DigiBooster 3, APC&TCP releases an open source DigiBooster 3 replayer routine organized as a static library. The code is being released on permissive, two-clause BSD license. The player is written in clean C with minimal dependencies. As such it has been succesfully compiled and tested on numerous platforms: AmigaOS 4 and Morphos, Linux (on x86, x86_64 and aarch64), Windows (XP, Win7, 32 and 64 bit) and MacOS X (x86_64). It also supports the most popular compilers:
GCC, Clang and Visual C++. The package contains source code of two example tools: 'dbminfo' displays information about a module, 'dbm2wav' renders a module into 44.1 kHz 16-bit stereo WAVE file. Of course libraryAPI documentation is provided as well.
Based on this code we plan to release in the near future more ready to use components, like shared libraries for AmigaOS and MorphOS and a few plugins for popular audio players.
Release of this code ends difficulties of playing DigiBooster 2/3 modules on non-Amiga(like) systems.
The library package is available for downloads on the official DigiBooster 3 webpage. Any questions related to the package may be asked on the official DigiBooster support forum.

AROS: Distribution AROS Vision 2.3 with Wildfire 7 and Games Master System
Olaf Schönweiß has released version 2.3 of his AROS/68k-distribution AROS Vision. It includes the full version of the animation and special effects programm Wildfire 7 as well as the latest version of AMOS Professional (bug fixes). Additionally, the "Games Master System" is included which is a developer kit for games. This is now Freeware.
Based on this, a AMOS-Pro-extension was integrated (command list ). This is a little example which opens an AGA-screen and loads an IFF-picture:
G Init GMS
G Screen Open 0,320,256,256,lowres
G Load IFF "clown.pic",0
G Wait LMB
G Reset
Additional to other extensions of the distribution like Netsurf AGA and the support of Tracker-modules of the Mod-file format, there now is also an online version of the tutorial for the included file manager Directoy Opus Magellan.
AROS Vision is tested under WinUAE as well as under FS-UAE.
