Develop External Libraries for CanDo?
Hereby I offer all programmers a development kit which allows the creation
of external function libraries for CanDo.
The library support was written in SAS/C, but can be adapted to
Maxon or Storm with little effort. Both, synchronous as well as asynchronous
function execution (by sub-task), are possible. An example is included which
illustrates the way it works.
The library gets opened from CanDo by the command...
OpenLibrary {library name} [,{buffer name}]
...and...
result=CallLibrary(buffer name,function [,arg1,arg2,...,arg10])
...will call the function.
Asynchronously executed functions are caught by the object "ExternalEvent".
The entire documentation and all comments are written in English. The archive
(280 kb) can be requested from youcan@amclust.de.

New Drivers for NetBSD
NetBSD-current, the development branch of NetBSD, was extended with drivers
for some more ISDN cards.
Currently are supported:
- BSC ISDN Master 2092/64 (1)
- ITH ISDN Master II 5000/1 (1)
- VMC ISDN Blaster 5001/1 (1)
- BSC ISDN Master II 2092/64
- Zeus ISDN Link 2189/3
- Individual ISDN Surfer 4626/5
(1) also in NetBSD-1.5 + isdb4bsd
These drivers are in NetBSD-current and thus will be shipped in NetBSD-1.6.
Testers are asked to test the new drivers on their experimental machines (as
far as possible); production machines should still run NetBSD-1.5 (with the
isdn4bsd package if necessary).
More information:

Lucy's New Versions
lucyplay.libray 4.0 and Dwarf 0.50 now are available for download on my page.
The library offers functions for loading and playing samples (only WAV a.t.m.)
via AHI, joystick control via lowlevel.library, and a best mode function for
CyberGraphX/Picasso96 or AGA/ECS/OCS. Dwarf is a TrainerMaker or Cheater like utility.
Soon updates of my other programs will follow, too, e.g. Orbit, UnLZX, UnRAR, and
of course news about Drake!

OpenDivX for Amiga
After implementations of the "state-of-the-art" video codec 3ivX available for the Amiga,
another modern video codec will come to the Amiga. Within the following days the opendivx.library
will be released, a mixed-binary (WarpOS and 68k support) library capable of decoding and encoding
OpenDivX animations. Player support already will be available. The opendivx.library along with
developer information will be to find at Aminet.
Note: OpenDivX is not DivX :-) compatible, but it is possible to convert both of those similar formats
one into the other on a Windows machine.

New Article by John Chandler
After a longer break John Chandler at Suite101 wrote a new article titled
´This Is Reality Control´.
In his new column John Chandler deals with a new low-cost PPC computer.
This computer is about the
RealityStation by
Ideas2Reality.
This is a A500 like device at £300 with the following features:
- PowerPC (200 MHz)
- Graphic system (OpenGL compatible)
- 5 USB-Ports
- 2 Firewire-Ports
- 16 MB FlashROM
- DVD-Drive
- Optional harddrive
For operating systems QNX RTP and Linux will be utilized. But the
company also is interested in other operating systems and for this
hands over to third-party companies the system documentations.
More information can be taken form John Chandler's text under the
title link.

The ICQ User List has got a Forum, now
Since there are more and more registrations from people apparently not knowing
what ICQ is about, Markus Schmidt has set up a
forum which
hopefully will be used lively.
It is planned to create an ICQ-FAQ from the postings but at the time being
time and information to do that is missing. Thence all ICQ users (and such about to
become one) are asked to drop by time by time and use the forum.

Telepolis: Online Readers Are Less Informed
»- and Less Controllable by the Editorial Staff
An investigation on different behavior in reading of print and online issues
of the NYTimes complains about missing visual indicators and detention to
pure value of the new inside online media.
How does on read news? Contrary to a newspaper, which is bought as a whole and normally
you run over the pages in part at least, whereby you possibly occasionally recognize
something you originally maybe didn't want to read, you single out much more when you
read online. But this maybe also would mean that little by little your point of view
takes in more and more, even more by personalized offers.«
You can find the complete article by Florian Roetzer under the title link (German).
