TrueType Font Rendering: ttrender.library V3.1 On 9th June 2002, Grzegorz Kraszewski has published version 3.1 of TrueType font render engine "ttrender.library" for AmigaOS. According to the author, this version entails a noticable increase in speed. This was obtained by improving memory allocation. The re-allocation of memory during the drawing of each single letter has been eliminated. This version of the library is based on the FreeType V2.0.9 sources of the project of the same name. Kraszewski is targeting two goals when porting: Expansion of FreeType's functionality and seamless integration into AmigaOS. Download: ttrender-3.1.lha (78K) (sd) (Translation: cb) [News message: 09.

09.Jun.2002 Digital Almanac (ANF) |
Digital Almanac III and Amithlon At the "Amiga Freunde Pfalz"'s Amiga Party, Achim Stegemann had the opportunity to test DA III under Amithlon on a Pentium 4 (1.6GHz) and GeForce 3 equipped PC. An animation of the star chart at a resolution of 1024x768 and a colour depth of 16bit resulted in a frame rate of ca. 10 fps. This is about ten times as fast as on the development machine (PPC604e/200 and 68060/50 with CVPPC). (sd) (Translation: cb) [News message: 09.

ELSA: new founded devolo AG produces new edition of industry modem Microlink 56k The on 2002, 1st May in Aachen founded devolo AG brings a new edition of the successfull industry modem Microlink 56k i to the market. So the good ELSA quality doesn't go completely lost.
The team of the devolo AG consists of 25 former workers of the ELSA AG who bring
each up to 18 years of experience in data communication into the company. The
ELSA AG was founded in 1980 as spin off of the RWTH Aachen. As pioneer of the
data communication ELSA brought in 1988 the first by the Deutsche Post accepted
modem to the market. For more than 20 years could ELSA establish themselves as
leading provider in the area of the data communication and the computer
graphics. Dramatic market changes prevented lasting synergies between the different
business fields, though. Heiko Harbers, former vice president consumer products
at ELSA and now founder and chairman of devolo, draws the obvious conclusion out
of this: a clear focussing on the business field data communication and a clear
tightening of the portfolio by concentrating on profitable succeeding products
is the devolo motto.

Collecting data for the FastFileSystem V46 Mario Cattaneo writes: Olaf Barthel developes the new FFS (FastFileSystem) of AmigaOS 4. Doing that in an as optimal as possible way he needs data. Data about the conditions of as many as possible Amiga partitions. Thus he is able to collect them he has written a little program which determines the file sizes. So these data may become representative if the program will be distributed as much as possible. Because of that I decided to put this program on my homepage for download. Please directly send the data to Olaf (please read the documentation before!).
The last possible data for sending in it is the 16th June 2002. Please do not send any reports after this day. This day is the deadline and then all reports which I have got up to this date will be analysed. Please join numerously... PS: For all those who doubt that this program is "clean" I added the source code to the program. So you can see what it makes.
