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)

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)
