Windows/Linux: AmigaDOS Amiga Disk File Checker
With ADFCHK ("AmigaDOS Amiga Disk File Checker") you can check if Amiga-Disk-Images have checksum errors or simple bootblock viruses ("LAMER" is already recognized, "boot-lamer" will follow).

The tool is mainly meant for using in batch files where you want to check many files. There are three corresponding .BAT-scripts for Windows users. The "menu-modus" is still in a very early developing status.

Linux users have to compile ADFCHK for yourself. All required parts are included in the source code archive. (cg) (Translation: dr)

Instant Messenger: SabreMSN Alpha 35
James 'jahc' Carroll has published another update of his Instant Messenger for the MSN-network for AmigaOS 3 and AmigaOS 4 (screenshot). The changes are listed in the changelog.

AmigaOS 4: PFTP 0.4
Pete's FTP (screenshot) written by Peter Gordon has been published in version 0.4. The changes in detail:
  • When you couldn't connect to a server, PFTP would hang. Fixed.
  • Icon is now a proper Amiga icon. Didn't realise it was png because i have the png iconmodule installed and i just copied over the file i got from Mason and forgot about it.
  • Now copes with servers that include a total number of files with the file listing at the top. Thanks to Magnus Andersson for his help with this one.
  • Now doesn't crash if you click a link in the about window without OpenURL installed.
  • The local browser thread didn't properly keep track of how many messages it was expecting a reply for, and could sometimes hang around waiting for responses it had already received. Fixed.
  • If you started some local-to-local transfers, and one of them failed for any reason, the ones after it wouldn't start. Fixed.
  • Local-to-local transfers that had a read or write error during transfer were treated as if they succeeded. Fixed.
  • If a transfer failed, it would be silently added to the failed transfer list, and an error message printed in the log. This is easily missed during bulk transfers. Now there is an error log for errors that occur during transfers, which pops up to let you know something went wrong. Items in bold are new ones since the last time the error log window was closed. Thanks to Mario Cattaneo for making me get around to this finally :)
  • Improved the error handling and detection for SFTP.
  • If you selected more than one directory, but no files, and deleted them, only the first one would be deleted. Fixed. (Thanks to Janne Peräaho for the report).
  • If you deleted a directory, but no files, the browser wouldn't be refreshed aftwards. Fixed. (Thanks to Janne Peräaho for the report).
  • Added a debug menu to make it easier to find and fix faults that i can't reproduce
