Well, it's spring here in the northern half of the world anyway once March comes. And appropriately enough, there are lots of interesting Amiga things popping up and growing. OK, that's probably a stretch as analogies go but it is true we have many things of interest for you in this issue. You also might want to check out this site: http://www.dietmar-eilert.net/golded/files.htm The 2002 version of the great GoldED Studio AIX (SP2) is now available free at the author's site. Note that this is not freely distributable software but you may download and use it for no fee. There's no story below as there was no annoucement of this to the press, but you should find all the information you need at the site or in the archive. So please enjoy the newsletter, enjoy the new and updated software that's come along but, if you live in our half of the world, make sure you take some time to enjoy the spring as well. Hmmmm. Now's when an Amiga laptop would come in really handy. Brad Webb, Editor ---------------------------------------------------------------------- E-mail to the E-ditor: 28 March, 2006 Dear Sir / Madam, I am a Professor in Engineering College in Pune. I have purchase AMIGA 2000 MODEL IN 1990 which were having some* software related to REAL-TIME VIDEO EFFECTS TOOL*, as per as my knowledge it is known as MANDALA. Please inform me if it is available as i require for PROJECT WORK, i am ready to buy it. So, Please inform as soon as possible. Can you tell me when Amiga sold a *first AMIGA computer with Mandala Software.* Waiting for your reply it's urgent. ** Thanks & Regards Bhushan Joshi ~~~~~~ You are asking for what is among the most rare of Amiga software unfortunately. I performed a quick search and was unable to find anyone with Mandala software, or a Live! board, for sale (I don't know if you need the Live! board but they are used together). If any of our readers has information about a copy of Mandala which Professor Joshi could purchase, please send it to us in reply to this mailing and we will pass the information along quickly. Information about a Live! board might be appreciated as well. Thanks!

The show will take place on Saturday the 29th of July 2006 at the Kingsway Centre in Scunthorpe, UK. A complete website will be going online soon, but rest assured we plan to vastly improve upon last year's show. It's time to crank it into turbo! Watch out for updates on our website: www.AmiRevival.com Anyone who can't wait for the full website to go live but would like to help out in any way whatsoever please contact us: contact@amirevival.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------- T H I N K C O M M O D O R E - O N A M A C 27 March, 2006 After one month of development Think Commodore is finally online. What is "Think Commodore"? Think Commodore is a website about emulating old Commodore computers such as the C64 and the Amiga on your Macintosh. The website also covers subjects such as C64 or Amiga games, demos, music, how to copy iles from your Mac back to your trusty old Commodore etc. I switched from the WinTel world to the Macintosh approx. one and a half years ago. I soon came to realize that while there are tons of websites covering Commodore emulation, SID music, Protracker modules, games, demos etc., information about Commodore emulation on the Mac is very scarce. Many websites about Commodore emulation on the Mac are old and obsolete, they aren't updated regularly and some websites/ teams completely ignore the Mac even though some nifty programmer has done a Mac port of that particular software or project. That's the reason why I started "Think Commodore". Hopefully you'll find this site useful and check back here regularly. Feel free to drop me an email if you have suggestions on how to i mprove the site. Cheers, Søren Ladegaard - Denmark ...oh, in case you were wondering "Think Commodore" is a homage to the classic Apple slogan "Think different". But you already knew that, didn't you? ;-) http://www.thinkcommodore.com/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- M U I B A S E G O E S G N U P U B L I C L I C E N S E 4 March, 2006 MUIbase (Magic data BASE with User Interface) is a relational programmable database with user interface. Begining in March, 2006, MUIbase for Amiga and Amiga-related operating systems is now distributed under the Gnu General Public License. The source code and binaries for m68kAmigaOS are made available as part of a sourceforge project. We hope that developers for the new AmigaOS 4, the MorphOS and AROS will also compile versions for these operating systems. At this point, we would like to thank all who supported us in the past and all who registered MUIbase. From the new version 2.0 on, no keyfile for running all features of MUIbase on Amiga is necessary any more. We still hope for support from the Amiga community. Please write us your comment. It will also be possible to make us a donation if you feel you want to financially support us. Happy MUIbase'ing, Steffen Gutmann http://sourceforge.net/projects/muibase ---------------------------------------------------------------------- A M I Z I L L A C O N T R I B U T I O N B Y C L I C K 19 March 2006 In an effort to raise even more money for AmiZilla to motivate programmers trying to win the contest AmiZilla now supports AdSense and adds those dollars to the booty. If you have a few minutes please go to http://www.amizilla.net and click on some of our sponsers and look at what they are offering. Your pay for click dollars will be added to the contest. Donations to AmiZilla now stand @ $10,204.27. Bill (tekmage) Borsari got the booty just over $10,000 with his large donation so will be able to get any software product from DiscreetFX for free. Thanks everyone for your efforts to get FireFox/Mozilla running on Amiga OS. Best regards DiscreetFX Team ---------------------------------------------------------------------- A M I K I T U P D A T E 1 . 1 . 0 A V A I L A B L E 28 March, 2006 "AmiKit is the compilation of the best Amiga (free/shareware) programs around. To be brief, AmiKit is all you need if you want to experience a high-end Classic Amiga system. It contains many expansions and add-ons (more than 20.000 files are included in AmiKit!) that turn the default AmigaOS installation into a completely renewed and fresh environment. This pre-configured package is designed for immediate use. Moreover, it contains an exciting surprise for the whole Amiga community, see the features or screenshots!" AmiKit now supports antialiased TrueType fonts! Loading speed of icons has been increased! Quality of icon rendering has been increased! WinUAE emulation software updated to version 1.2.0 AmiKit now contains the largest collection of AmigaOS3.9 patches. DESCRIPTION OF NEW SOFTWARE IN THIS UPDATE: AfA_OS 3.93 by Bernd Roesch "AROS For Amiga" project ports the AROS sources and make them available for classic AmigaOS. Since AROS is more up-to-date, it provides a lot of new features and system bugfixes for AmiKit! For example, AfA_OS is responsible for icon loading speedup, enchanced icon rendering, TrueType font support etc. AmiStart 0.66b (exclusive AmiKit version) by Darius Brewka This great taskbar software has been updated for AmiKit. It works in detached mode now so it does not steal the active state from other tasks and windows anymore! AISS 2.2 by Martin 'Mason' Merz "Amiga Image Storage System" is a system to store, access and maintain toolbar images under AmigaOS. AmiSSL 3.6 by Andrija Antonijevic and Stefan Burstroem AmiSSL is a shared library package, port of OpenSSL which is "a collaborative effort to develop a robust, commercial-grade, full- featured, and Open Source toolkit implementing the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL v2/v3) and Transport Layer Security (TLS v1) protocols as well as a full-strength general purpose cryptography library". Ken Lester has painted fresh new toolbar images for DOpus5! These images are used as default now. Your old toolbar is stored as "DOpus5:Buttons/toolbar_104bak". Rename it to "DOpus5:Buttons/toolbar" to have it back. Meridian 2.20 by Guido Mersmann You all know PDAs where you can draw lines with a pen on the display and the PDA converts these combinations into characters or functions. Meridian does exactly this! Meridian is a small commodity to create virtual hotkeys by using the mouse. You paint a square and Meridian starts the requested action. Since the starting point and the direction is also important, there are countless combinations you can use. Eg. hold down the middle mouse button and move your mouse to upper-right direction and watch the result! MUIbase 2.0 by Steffen Gutmann MUIbase is a fast and very flexible database for the Amiga. It is for users who want to manage data in a comfortable and easy way. MUIbase is able to manage any kind of data, e.g. addresses, CD series, movies, or your income and expense. The power of MUIbase lies in its clear and powerful graphical user interface and its programming capabilities. The latter makes it possible to automatically calculate and maintain nearly everything, starting from automatically summing up values, e.g. for calculating the total amount of income or the total amount of recorded time of a CD, up to automatically creating and printing letters for any purpose. StormMesa libraries 3.1 by Haage&Partner Computer GmbH These 3D libraries are almost completely OpenGL compatible and provides 3D features to Amiga. Try a demo in AmiKit:Utilities/ Expansion/StormMesa/GLProgs drawer or find more on Aminet. Sudoku 1.3 by Silicon Wizards A popular game in a computer form. Special thanks to Michael Lanser! AmiKit now contains the largest collection of unofficial patches for AmigaOS3.9: - Amigaguide.datatype 45.6 - Console.device 44.10 - FastFileSystem 45.14 - Icon.library 45.4 - MultiView 45.10 - RAM-Handler 44.23 - Rexxsyslib.library 44.2 - Shell 45.12 - Workbench.library 45.130 The installation of these patches is optional. Run "Install Patches" to install them. http://amikit.amiga.sk/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- N E W E P I S T U L A F O R Y O U R M E S S A G I N G 10 March, 2006 Epistula is to AmigaOS what GAIM is to Linux and Windows. For people not in the know, GAIM is an instant messenger application which can handle a variety of IM protocols, for example Microsoft MSN, AOL AIM and Yahoo Messenger. I know JabberWocky can provide a similar service, but that requires extra setting up with Jabber ID's etc. This way, you can log straight onto your favourite protocol, by-passing any need for yet another IM account. One of the main reasons I started to write this client was because I couldn't be bothered with Jabber... I can't be the only one... can I? Unlike GAIM, Epistula is written in a modular fashion in that each 'protocol' is a plugin which can be installed, and updated, seperately from the main application and other plugins. Epistula is initially only in development for AmigaOS 4, but hopefully in not-to-distant future, will also be made available for MorphOS, AmigaOS 3.1 and AROS. People looking for individual 68k instant messengers available now wouldn't be going far wrong looking at JabberWocky, AmiMSN and AmigAIM. Friday, 10th March 2006 I've spent quite a bit of time developing this last week, both changing the website and updating the client and MSN plugin. Thanks to everyone who sent in numerous crash logs and serial output, they've be invaluable in tracking down various bugs. I'd also like to point out that since Epistula is getting more and more stable, that this will be the last update to the demo version. All future features will only be available to registered users, although plugin updates should also work with the demo. The following changes have been made to Epistula and the MSN plugin: * MSN plugin has now been updated to MSN Protocol 11 * Group names are now UTF-Decoded/Encoded in the MSN plugin before being sent to Epistula * Fixed the secure authentication which stopped quite a few people logging into MSN. Those unable to login before, but could with GAIM or the official client should find this allows them to login with Epistula now * MSN plugin now respects your initial presence as specified in the plugin settings * Plugin integration with Epistula has had a massive re-write * Epistula will now check for the minimum required MUI custom classes before launching * General messages window fixed to display the correct message when selected from the list * Slight cosmetic changes * Various memory leaks/bugs fixed http://www.the-snakepit.co.uk/epistula/ ---------------------------------------------------------------------- U P D A T E F O R A P O D F O R I P O D 29 March, 2006 I have just uploaded an update to aPod, my iPod management program. The new version allows to copy multiple songs across at once and to sort the song listview by clicking on the various columns. apod is an application to mantain and synchronise your mp3 collection on your iPod using from a Amiga OS4 computer with usb. apod is written in perl and utilises the perl_Reaction interface to the OS4 reaction gui. The interface with the ipod is maintained using the Mac::iPod::GNUpod module. INSTALLATION: NOTE: If installing for the first time, apod requires the following perl modules to be installed, if updating you only need to copy the apod and .apodrc files. perl_Reaction version .02 available from (os4depot.net) Mac::iPod::GNUpod (included) Audio::Wav (included) MP3::Info (included) Unicode::String (incuded) XML::Parser (included) install any of these you don't yet have by CD ing into their directory, starting abc-shell and typing perl Makefile.PL LINKTYPE=DYNAMIC make make install copy apod and .apodrc to the location of your choice say work:apod/ assign apod: to this directory. edit the paths in .apodrc to reflect the name of your ipod etc. PREPARING TOUR IPOD: You may need to create the directory <ipodname>:iPod_Control/.gnupod/ otherwise your ipod requires no special initialisation. Your ipod still requires the apple firmware etc this pogram only handles copying of music file to and from the ipod. USAGE: perl apod --help to get usage or perldoc apod to get full pod documentation. HISTORY: 1.1 Added Multiselect to Addsongs. Song List can now be sorted by Columns 1.0 Initial Public Release KNOWN BUGS: The underlying mac::ipod::gnupod module appears to have some problems with smartplaylists. If you get a problem with this email me, for a workarround. TODO: Mac::iPod::GNUpod ofers some sophisticated search options and a variation on smartplaylists based on these. adding support for these will be done in the not too far distant future. Send an Feature requests to me by email and I'll see what I can do... DONATIONS: This work has been largely been to done to fulfil my own needs and to support the amigaos 4 community in general, but it does take a lot of time so if you would like to make a donation there is a paypal button at http://www.broad.ology.org.uk ---------------------------------------------------------------------- D I S T R I B U T O R F O R _ A M I G A G U R U _ B O O K 17 March, 2006 APC&TCP is proud to announce that it has taken the distribution of the "Amiga-Guru-Book".

What is Scout? ============== Scout is a tool that allows you to monitor your computer system. It displays many different things -- like tasks, ports, assigns, expansion boards, resident commands, interrupts, etc. -- and you can perform some certain actions on them. For example you can freeze tasks, close windows and screens, release semaphores or remove locks, ports and interrupts. Through AmiTCP it's also possible to use Scout as a TCP/IP service. Since version 2.0 of Scout you can use nearly all implemented functions through shell parameters. Therefore it's not necessary to install MUI for using Scout, but you will need MUI if you want to use Scout with its graphical user interface. BTW: Scout can open 49 different windows! :-) PS: Along with V3.3 this number is even higher than 49, but I am too lazy to count all the different windows :) Changes from release 3.4 to release 3.5: ======================================== o This newly created archive also contains the latest NList classes, which are also available at http://sourceforge.net/projects/nlist- classes/. o Too many changes to list them all. All in all there were almost next to no functional changes, but lots of system specific additions. The biggest change however is that Scout now comes in a native OS4 flavour :) That means we now have three different builds: OS2/3, OS4 and MorphOS. The OS3 build should run under both, OS4 and MorphOS, but cannot really make any real advantage of the new system enhancements. The OS4 and the MorphOS builds however will make use of system specific enhancements as far as this is possible and gives any advantage. o all builds may list PCI boards in the expansion window. The OS4 build uses the PCI interface of expansion.library, while the MOS build will use openpci.library to query all the details. OS3 support for openpci.library will hopefully come in the next release, together with a detail window for PCI boards. http://www.os4depot.net/index.php?function=showfile&file=utility/misc/ scout.lha ---------------------------------------------------------------------- A M I D I S K O N O S 4 D E P O T Description: File manager for OS4 Download: amidisk.lha Version: 1.04 Date: 14 Mar 06 Author: FLORAC Roland Submitter: FLORAC Roland Email: rflorac/free fr Requirements: OS4, PowerPC Category: utility/filetool Replaces: utility/filetool/amidisk.lha License: Freeware Distribute: yes FileID: 1718 Handles mouse wheel. Better vertical proportionnal gadgets handler. Bug on the Comments handler corrected (didn't work for ALL files) New prefs button to desactivate bubble help. String gadget path bug corrected (didn't work when the tab wasn't active). Installation : If you are updating from a previous version, just copy the AmiDisk executable in place of the old one. I suggest you don't copy the prefs file if you want to keep your old preferences. Use the import button to try the new classes. New installation : Just copy the AmiDisk drawer in the SYS:utilities drawer. Then delete the files you don't need (catalogs, icons, guide, logo...) You can keep only AmiDisk, AmiDisk.info and AmiDisk.prefs if you want. Perhaps, your old configuration will not be totaly readen, launching AmiDisk version 1.04. The state of the double clic button is slowly modified in the prefs file, so check it in the prefs menu, and save the configuration. Il will work on next run. http://www.os4depot.net/index.php?function=showfile&file=utility/ filetool/amidisk.lha =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- Amiga Update on the net: All back issues available at: http://www.globaldialog.com/~bandr/AU/index.html Stop by and check out our archive!

Hintergrund der Veröffentlichung sind Änderungen im Wiedergabe-Quellkode, um das Multibuffering besser zu handhaben (zuvor funktionierte nur das Doublebuffering so wie es sollte). Diese bedürfen nun allerdings entsprechender Tests. Bitte melden Sie daher alle Probleme, auf die Sie möglicherweise stoßen, dem Autor. Download: ahi.device-6.7.lha (679 KB) (snx) [Meldung: 01.

Musik: Verlosung zweier CDs von Psyria zu Ostern Dennis 'Psyria' Lohr schreibt: Nein, es handelt sich nicht um einen Aprilscherz ! :-) Da Ostern bald vor der Tür steht, möchte ich dies zum Anlass nehmen, meinerseits "Ostereier" an die Amiga-Community zu verteilen. Daher möchte ich gerne 2 CDs meiner ersten Album-EP "The last obligation" verlosen. Die Gewinnfrage lautet: Wieviel mp3-Dateien kann man derzeit im Downloadbereich insgesamt unter dem Titellink finden? Wer mitmachen möchte, schreibt bitte eine E-Mail an music@psyria.de mit dem Betreff "CD-Quiz". Einsendeschluss ist der 3. April 2006, die Gewinner werden gleichfalls per E-Mail benachrichtigt. - Viel Erfolg! (snx) [Meldung: 01. Apr. 2006, 15:58] [Kommentare: 0] [Per E-Mail versenden] [Druck-Version] [ASCII-Version] |

In eigener Sache: Kommentar-System Nach einer großzügigen Spende unseres Lesers IM_Petrow, die wir unmöglich ablehnen konnten, hat sich das Team von amiga-news heute entschlossen, das Kommentarsystem im Laufe dieses Tages vollständig zu entfernen. Wir sind mit ihm zu der Überzeugung gelangt, dass eventuelle Kommentare und Diskussionen zu den News-Meldungen auch im Forum geäußert werden können. (nba) [Meldung: 01.

Apple feiert 30. Geburtstag Happy Birthday, Apple: Der 1. April 1976 ging in der Computer-Geschichte als Tag der Gründung des Computer-Pioniers ein. Steve Wozniak, Steve Jobs und Ron Wayne bastelten zu dieser Zeit an der Fertigstellung des revolutionären Apple I und unterschrieben einen zehnseitigen Gesellschafter-Vertrag, den der spätere Apple-Investor Mike Markkula als das "wunderlichste Dokument" bezeichnete, das er je gelesen habe. Wayne stieg kurze Zeit darauf gegen eine Abfindung von 500 Dollar aus der Firma aus, weil er sich gegen den von Jobs festgelegten satanischen Preis des Apple I in Höhe von 666,66 sträubte. Der Apple I und seine vielen Nachfolger bis zur heutigen Macintosh-Familie wurde ein gigantischer Erfolg und revolutionierte die Computertechnik - Apple schrieb Geschichte und ist heute, nach einer Durststrecke in den 90er Jahren, wieder eines der angesagtesten Unternehmen im IT-Markt.

Neue grafische Bedienoberfläche: SpyGUI Henning Thielemann schreibt: Die Schwächen von MUI, Reaction und anderen GUI-Systemen (Graphical User Interface) sind hinlänglich bekannt: Hoher Speicherverbrauch, magere Geschwindigkeit beim Aufbau der Grafik, lange Reaktionszeiten, Unterstützung von maximal je einer Maus und einer Tastatur, keine Internetanbindung. Deshalb tritt nun ein neues System für grafische Bedienschnittstellen (kurz GRABSCH) mit dem Namen SpyGUI an. Die gravierenden konzeptionellen Mängel herkömmlicher, auf objektorientierter Programmierung (OO) beruhenden Oberflächen werden durch die neue aspektadaptive Programmiertechnik (AA) behoben. Diese Technik wird bislang nur von der ebenfalls neuartigen Programmiersprache KABA (siehe in Kürze folgende Meldung) unterstützt, welche die bewährten Sicherheitsmechanismen von C mit der leicht zu erlernenden Syntax von FALSE verbindet. Das erste größere Projekt, welches SpyGUI einsetzt, ist konsequenterweise eine KABA-Entwicklungsumgebung (IDE). SpyGUI vereint Eigenschaften in sich, die bislang von kaum einer anderen GRABSCH geboten werden:
Die Nachfolgeversion 2.0 ist bereits für das vierte Quartal 2007, oder sobald SpyGUI MS-Windows vom Markt gedrängt hat, geplant (je nachdem was später eintritt). Für diese Version sind geplant:
Das beste an SpyGUI: Es kostet nichts! Höchstens ein müdes Lächeln. (snx) [Meldung: 01. Apr. 2006, 09:49] [Kommentare: 12 - 01. Apr. 2006, 17:26] [Per E-Mail versenden] [Druck-Version] [ASCII-Version] |

1. Mai: Tag der Speicherchip-Abspaltung bei Infineon Zwei Monate früher als geplant wird der deutsche Chiphersteller Infineon sein Speichergeschäft abspalten. Am 1. Mai soll das neue Unternehmen unter dem Namen Qimonda AG die Geschäftstätigkeit aufnehmen, teilte Infineon heute, Freitag, mit. Zunächst agiert Qimonda noch als 100-prozentige Tochter von Infineon. Erklärtes Ziel bleibt es aber, Qimonda an die Börse zu bringen. Der Trennungsprozess sei auf organisatorischer und technischer Ebene zügig vorangeschritten, hieß es in einer entsprechenden Aussendung. Infineon, das seit dem Börsengang im Jahr 2000 mit roten Zahlen kämpft, hatte sich im vergangenen Herbst zu einer Trennung von Logik- und Speicherchip-Sparte entschlossen. Anders als im Bereich der Speicherchips ist der Markt für Logikchips stabiler und der Kapitalbedarf in der Produktion geringer, was zu höheren Margen führen soll. Das schlechte Abschneiden der Speicherchipsparte hat Infineon im ersten Quartal des laufenden Geschäftsjahres 2005/06 Verluste in Höhe von 183 Mio. Euro beschert. Vor allem die Speicherchip-Sparte zeichnete für die roten Zahlen verantwortlich. Trotz des schwierigeren Umfelds im Speicherchip-Geschäft mit seinen heftigen Schwankungen rechnet der designierte Vorstandsvorsitzende der Qimonda AG, Kin Wah Loh (Bild, rechts), auch hier nach der Abspaltung mit einer positiven Entwicklung. "Wir sind zuversichtlich, dass das neue Unternehmen das richtige Rezept für nachhaltiges profitables Wachstum hat", so Loh, der bereits seit Sommer 2005 den Speicherbereich bei Infineon leitet. Qimonda wird weltweit rund 12.000 Mitarbeiter beschäftigen. (pte) (nba) [Meldung: 01. Apr. 2006, 02:40] [Kommentare: 1 - 03. Apr. 2006, 10:04] [Per E-Mail versenden] [Druck-Version] [ASCII-Version] |

USA geben Microsoft Rückendeckung im EU-Streit Microsoft bekommt im Streit mit der EU offenbar Rückendeckung von offizieller US-Seite. Derweil drohen Microsoft weitere Strafzahlungen, denn die EU ist alles andere als zufrieden mit den von Microsoft vorgelegten Informationen. Als "völlig nutzlos" wurden diese bezeichnet.

Project Trifolium - Motorola Dual 680x0 Prozessor Emulation Project Trifolium ist emuliert zwei Motorola 680x0-Prozessoren mit einer dynamischen Rekompilierung für PowerPC-basierte Amigas. MMUs werden dabei nicht unterstützt. Die dynamische Rekompilierung, auch als Just-in-Time-Compilation oder kurz JIT-Compilation bekannt, ist eine Technik für die unmittelbare Übersetzung des emulierten Prozessor-Maschinen-Codes in einen ausführbaren Prozessor-Maschinen-Code. Diese Technik ist mittlerweile eine gebräuchliche Methode, die üblicherweise in JAVA-Applikationen Verwendung findet und erfolgreich in verschiedenen Emulatoren eingesetzt wird. Trifolium ist kein offizieller Bestandteil von AmigaOS 4. Für weitere Informationen und Download-Möglichkeiten besuchen Sie bitte die Trifolium-Website unter dem Titellink. (nba) [Meldung: 01.
