AmigaOS 4: X11 environment AmiCygnix 1.7
Edgar Schwan's AmiCygnix is a Unix environment for AmigaOS 4. It is not an emulation, but all programs are compiled natively for AmigaOS 4 (screenshot). AmiCygnix provides a directory and data structure similar to that of a Unix installation.
Version 1.7 contains some innovations around the topic "start of external programs" (remote start), furthermore a Unix and an Amiga shell is now available for the display drivers for the Workbench (screenshot). Besides that some bugs have been fixed by completely reworking the utility library "libaos4util" for AmiCygnix and by adding the coreutils package also some dependencies to the AmigaOS 4 SDK have been removed.
