IRC-Client: WookieChat 1.4 (Beta)
WookieChat is a MUI-based IRC-client for AmigaOS 3/4 (screenshot). In version 1.4 "DCC GET" as well as the support for colourful texts have been added.

According to the author the colour support does not still work perfectly: Iconifying or starting the MUI-Prefs may cause colour bugs if the program uses a seperate screen. This can be undone by entering "/a".

The 68k-version becomes instable after some server connections because the string which contains the nickname is overwritten in the memory. The author is grateful for some feedback.

Airsoft Softwair: Malibu Video Released
For everybody who doesn't have Malibu yet, but is interested in how it looks when a Scala presentation is loaded from the Workbench, there's now a presentation video on Airsoft Softwair's homepage (title link) in which diverse presentations are run with Hollywood 1.9 and Malibu 1.1.

Please pay attention to the fact that Malibu requires at least version 1.9 of Hollywood. It can't run without Hollywood because it's just a plugin that relies on Hollywood's Multimedia Application Layer. Malibu, Hollywood, and Hollywood Designer are available in native versions for 68k, MorphOS and WarpUP. (snx) (Translation: dm)

Nexus Development: Alternative audio.device for MorphOS
Emanuele Cesaroni of Nexus Development has released an alternative audio.device for MorphOS that channels calls to the original Amiga audio.device aimed at the custom chip Paula to the RTA layer of AHI. However software that directly targets the Amiga hardware instead of making use of the OS also doesn't run with eaudio.device.

The device was put together through reverse-engineering. The author asks that you carefully read the explanation text for eaudio.device. (snx) (Translation: dm)

Meridian 2.12 Released for AmigaOS 3.x and MorphOS
Guido Mersmann released version 2.12 of Meridian, a commodity that allows programs to be called in the manner of a PDA using handwriting recognition as virtual hotkeys. The startpoint and direction of mouse movement play a role and allow the use of countless combinations that may be freely used.

With Meridian you can leaf through screens and windows, close windows, close requesters, and start programs and actions with just a movement of the mouse. This all occurs without a visible interface, pop-up menu, or dock. Only the pointer appears on the screen.

This version contains some new features and minor improvements, among them a workaround for the "drifting directory" problem that was solved by fixing a bug in the input.device for MorphOS.

Features:
  • Commodity
  • Online help
  • Locale Support

IRC Channel #ac.de Meeting Being Planned
The IRC channel #ac.de plans to meet this spring for a weekend in Oberharz. Here are two of the dates (one in May, the other in June) for consideration. It mostly depends which date would get the greater attendance.

The plans include setting up a little LAN, a Beamer, a homestyle barbeque and possibly a trip out to the hills. The costs will be about 45 euros per person for all the trimmings. Those interested should send an e-mail to Lars Schimmer. (snx) (Translation: dm)

Instructions: Using DrawStudio on the Pegasos
Carsten Siegner describes as follows how one may get DrawStudio to run on the Pegasos. He writes:

"First you should get the archive from my webpage: Drawst.lha. It contains a monitor driver named "PAL." That's a PAL emulation for CyberGraphX. Further there's a prefs file for Drawstudio. Copy this to the DrawStudio directory.

After that DrawStudio starts fine with a normal screen-mode picture. The only thing still missing is SmartWin from Aminet. This gets past a small bug in DrawStudio. SmartWin must be copied to the startup directory. After a reboot, the Pegasos user may use DrawStudio totally normally." (snx) (Translation: dm)
