Demo Version v44.40 of the HSMathLibs for MC68040/060
Matthias Henze wrote:
After a very long time there is a "new" demo version. This version corresponds
to the full version v44.40 from 30.01.1999. Only the installer script and the
manuals, which are available in 14 languages, got a rework.
I've decided to release this little older version because everytime soon after
the release of a new demo version a cracked version of this was available.
To give the honest users a small advantage over the crackers and software pirates
the v44.41 will be available ONLY to registered users for the time being.

Amiga Archive: Download via HTTP Recommended
Patrick Roberts (Web-Server "zAMilo") has recommended on the Open Amiga mailing list
to use the HTTP protocol for downloads of the Amiga archive. Downloads via HTTP
have the advantage of being counted and displayed directly on this page.
He himself and probably other programmers, too, orientate their priorities for
the software development along these numbers.
At the moment there are many games in the Top 10 of the downloads.
For him this means to concentrate on games for , as this is the software genre
which is most wanted by the people.

Amiga: Information about SHEEP
Gary Peake has posted some information about SHEEP on the Open Amiga mailing
list. SHEEP is a programming language in development by Wouter van Oortmerssen
(Amiga E) specially for AmigaDE.
The language can be used as interpreter and as compiler language (VP-code). The
speed of the compiled code is said to be comparable to that of C++/Java.
The pattern matching of SHEEP won't be restricted to strings but can be used on
every data structure. For this the language will contain an own variant for the
pattern matching. In addition to this the kn regular expressions (Perl) will
be supported. It is not decided until whether this will happen as a separate
feature or via utility functions.
The language will offer an interface to write extensions for SHEEP. This will
allow to write them in every language that supports the Amiga-Object-system, for
example VP-assembler or Ansi-C.
(VP is the virtual processor of the Amiga/TAO system)
