MorphOS: Port of Virtual Grand Prix 3 "possible"
The Aminet-team asked author Paolo Cattani if it is allowed to publish the MorphOS-version of his Formel 1 simulation "Virtual Grand Prix 2" on Aminet. The author answered that it is still possible to donate for VGP2 as well as it is possible to port the successor Virtual Grand Prix 3 although there are some "technical problems" and he is not going to "promise the earth".

Software-News until 21.12.2009

Text viewer: EvenMore 0.69

EvenMore is a textviewer written in AmigaE and by Chris Perver. Changes since the last version:
  • Modified exec list sorting to receive a list length variable, so it doesn't need to be counted first. Also modified Dir2Text plugin to accept this
  • Was freeing information bar pattern data by mistake when launching an external program
  • Pär Boberg has updated his Swedish catalog file following the changes made to the preferences
  • Added two new escape code sequences. ESC[52m will set the displayed font in EvenMore to the user selected font, while ESC[53m will set the displayed font to the default system font. This will allow plugins such as the Generic2Text plugin to switch to a uniform system font when viewing hexadecimal files.
  • Updated Generic2Text plugin to use the system font when viewing hexadecimal files

MorphOS: Drawerball 0.8q

Tom 'Amigaharry' Duin has published Drawerball 0.8q which is a very early version of a simple file manager.

AmigaOS 4: Modula 2-development environment AgletM2PPC

AgletM2PPC is a complete Modula 2-development environment inclusive compiler. Only a text editor is required (GoldEd, CygnusEd and TurboText are supported). Changes since the last release:

Compiler:
  • The compiler itself is now PPC native, and is significantly faster!
  • The size limit on procedures is now probably large enough for any sane program
  • A bug which caused extremely excessive stack use was fixed. Now 40 or 50K should be enough for almost any compile
  • Some code generation errors were fixed
  • Fixed problem with Opaque pointers resolved within the IMPLEMENTATION module by imported pointer types
  • Added compiler warning: OpenArrayCopyWarn
  • SDK 53.8+ now using the GNU assembler v2.18 vs. 2.14 in earlier SDKs. This required that some instructions be output slightly differently
  • Certain "recording" versions of FP instructions are no longer generated, since Sam 440ep/flex does not support them

(Pre)Linker
  • Mod2Lnk recognizes a "-stack" switch and inserts the "$STACK:xxxx" cookie into executables. The .asm files no longer need be kept around. All dependency information is in the object file now. Asm files are written to T:
  • Added the "-g" debug switch, which causes both exported and non-exported symbols to be put into the Elf symbol table so that SymbolsRTS can find them as well

M2IDE
  • Option "Make Icons?" added for the project file save
  • Fixed problem of GR on exit if M2IDE changed its current directory
  • Multiselect now supported for the "Misc Files" file requester

Amiga Modules
  • Added Definition files for about 25 more Amiga Libraries, and all supplied Amiga definition files (over 150 of them) were brought up to the v53.13 SDK
  • The TextEditor gadget is now working much better, as the Definition file now adjusts to a glitch in the SDK's .h file

Aglet Modules
  • System module SymbolsRTS was introduced for better debugging of exception locations
  • CLI program arguments and Workbench ToolTypes are transparently (almost) unified when the ArgsSupport module is used to read startup arguments
  • Many improvements in the (experimental) SimpleXXX modules (SimpleGUI, SimpleScreens, SimpleMenus, SimpleGraphics, etc)
  • new modules: BigInt, for 155 bit integers; IconSupport, for writing out icons

Filesharing: Testing Amigift 2.0 for free

Amigift is a P2P file sharing system based on the giFT-demon (Gnutella, FastTrack, OpenFT) ported from the Unix-system and which has a MUI-based graphical user-interface called "GiftMUI" (screenshot). The author now offers a key with which you can test all the features of the shareware program for a limited time for 30 minutes per session.
