Encyclopedia mentiones the Amiga
The "Multimedia-Encyclopedia 2002", which can be purchased at Aldi (German discounter), is reading about the Amiga:

»Amiga
Home computer developed in the 80th by the company Amiga, then distributed by Commodore with Motorola processors. Popular home computers of the Amiga line are the models Amiga 500 and Amiga 1000. More efficient versions of the Amiga also could be utilized for more challenging projects (Amiga 2000 and Amiga 4000).

Amiga was taken over by the German trade chain Escom, then by the US company Viscorp, and finally by the company Amino, but though several announcements were made no new Amiga products were launched, so far.« (ps) (Translation: mj)

Amiga-musicans wanted!
Moods - the platform for Amiga music has published some new songs (more than 150 songs have been already uploaded) on their website under www.moods.2xs.de or www.moodymusic.de.vu as well as offers some interesting specials, e.g. a funny MekkaSymposium- and PrivatParty-Gallery. Besides this they are still looking for some new musicans. Simply write a mail to the organizers. (ps) (Translation: dr)

AGC failed
Unfortunately there has not been much interest in my attempt to found the AGC (Amiga Guide Community). I intended to create a common basis for all those who like to work with the AmigaGuideFormat. I was also going to create a website which should have contained all publications of the AmigaGuideFormat that have been ever written.

Some of the active AmigaGuide writer answered very pleased but nobody could help me realizing the project so I stopped it in summer 2001.

Up to now I did not have the time to publish this sad message. Sad because the AmigaGuideFormat is underestimated of most of the Amiga users although it is used very often. However, maybe there is somebody who is interested in. I still have not thrown away my notices of this project. (ps) (Translation: dr)

Text viewer: EvenMore Updates
New updates in the EvenMore archive. Now when you search for text using the search files function, you can double click a file in the list to open it at the place where your match was found (Only for plain text files though). Fixed a bug in the new colour setup, EvenMore would sometimes loose other colours when getting new ones. You will need to reconfigure your EvenMore config file. Also fixed an enforcer hit when closing the window, was freeing the gadgets twice ;/.

Alfred Vaust has also created a deutsch catalog for EvenMore, along with a template for creating new catalogs and a catalog compile script for users to create their own catalogs easily. (ps)

Transfer program for Casio graphical calculators
Uwe Ryssel wrote:
I have uploaded ACas c0.2beta which is a transfer program for the Casio graphical calculator CFX-9850G to the Aminet.

With the help of the program you can send and receice all data of the calculator. These data can be saved and loaded as CAT-format. The CAT-format is used by the original transfer program of Casio and is the most frequent format with which these data (e.g. programs) are handled.

IRC-Kanal for AmigaOS XL-User
To relief other channels and to give a quick assistance for problems there will be an own IRC channel:

Channel: #AOS_XL-Help
IRC-Server: irc.belwue.de
Port:6667

This is not a steady channel and I cannot promise that you will find every time someone there. But I will keep it open as long as I am online. (ps) (Translation: gf)

SSH: OpenSSH 3.0.1
Eric Chernoff released an Amiga port of "OpenSSH 3.0.1" on his homepage.

OpenSSH with "ssh", "scp", and "sftp" offers secure alternatives for "telnet", "rcp", and "ftp". The unsecure versions send passwords and data over the Internet as plain text.

VNC: zvnc V.1.1
David Gerber has released version 1.1 of his VNC client "zvnc" on 28. December 2001. Following the changes:

  • Bugfix: Port- and cx_priority arguments were not observed.
  • New: Documentation extended with more FAQ entries.


"zvnc" is a small VNC-Client without display support (for controlling a second machine with monitor). The advantage of "zvnc" are a minimum of data to be send via the network, because the graphics data are not applied. That makes control by mouse and keyboard very straight.

The archive contains versions for AmigaOS 2.x / 3.x, and MorphOS.

Download: zvnc_1.1.lha (sd) (Translation: mj)
