`26.Apr.2004` ANN (Website)	MorphOS: CPU-Monitor (Update) Ecologically friendly CPU Monitor for MorphOS I'm very proud to annouce that we could finish today the first ever ecologically friendly CPU Monitor for the MorphOS operating system. CPU Monitor 1.0 is completly based on old and recycled source code. It is also completly recyclable for further use and all non recyclable parts, like the falled out hairs of the development crew, are 100% biodegradable. It was for the first time ever possible to renounce animal experiments, therefore no coders were harmed during the several years lasting development of CPU Monitor. We're very proud and excited about this success! Please visit http://www.the-recyclable-cpumonitor-project.org for more information and corporate inquiries. We opened the shop so you can order your 100% chloroform-free copy of CPU Monitor 1.1 for the MorphOS operating system (C.O.D.) NOW! Also a CPU Monitor Brochure for immediate download is available for free. (snx) (Translation: sk) [News message: 26. Apr. 2004, 15:01] [Comments: 0] [Send via e-mail] [Print version] [ASCII version]

`24.Apr.2004` Constantinos Nicolakakis (E-Mail)	Tool: SRename 3.9.0 Constantinos Nicolakakis has released version 3.9.0 of the tool SRename. Using SRename, which requires AmigaOS 3.0+, you can rename files easily. New features: Improved the benchmarking functionality of the STATS option. Added a more meaningful "Renamed objects per second" statistic. This figure is displayed only if the given rename operations take at least a second, and an additional message is displayed if this figure doesn't represent performance accurately because of given options or other factors. Also added the percentage of processed files that are or would be renamed. Added the FORCEPATH option to force the entire filepattern to be taken as a path regardless if it ends with a slash or not. This was added to avoid having to add a slash at the end of a path every time a path has to be supplied. Display of warnings when the parser detects problematic command sequences that can still be executed. More speed in Indirect mode and less code size by streamlining the internal workings of Indirect mode. Several storage buffers were unified into one making the code that handles Indirect mode much less convoluted and much more robust. Further reduced startup time when Indirect mode is used. Bugfixes: Mishandling of separators under certain conditions. Sometimes error messages weren't displayed. The Main component failed to be created under certain conditions. Incorrect number placement when modifying the Basename using swapping, shifting or unifying 2-component basenames since version 3.8.0. Incorrect operation of Indirect mode in some occasions. Other changes: Added the script "RenumberNoBase" for renumbering batches of filenames that don't share a common basename. Fixed the "HexToChr" script to process only byte hex values.
