Thumbnail pictograms: Image2Icon 1.23
Image2Icon by Stephan Rupprecht creates thumbnail pictograms, the archive contains versionen for AmigaOS 3 and 4.
  • 1.23: grrr, jpeg saver was still broken...
  • 1.22: another AmigaOS4 release: broke jpg and ilbm output the last time because I changed the internal image format from RGB to ARGB without adapting the savers to it.
  • 1.22: implemented IF=ICONFORMAT/K option. Now it's possible to create NewIcons with the OS4 version (requires newicon.library).

Oldschool Demoscene and game party in Lübeck (25th-28th May)
Press release: This year the successful demo scene and gaming event "Maximum Overdose" goes into its eigth round in Lübeck during the Whitsun holidays(25th-28th May). Whoever missed the Breakpoint because living too far away shouldn't miss the MO8, since the Amiga and C64 competition will be shown again there.

The entrance fee is EUR 15 for Friday evening until Monday noon. A dormitory will be available (bring airbeds and earplugs against snorers).

Recent rumours claimed toe MO would be a pure C64 party. That is just wrong! The party is open to all alternative systems and Amigas are likely to be the second most popular system there. To even improve the Amiga share, you need to go there. Do what you like your Amiga for: Be creative and bring your productions (and your Amiga) to the party. Competitions will be held in the following categories:
  • Demo
  • Graphics
  • Music (MP3 remix, tracked)

Furthermore there will be the opportunity to play your favorite Amiga or C64 game on the big screen against other attendees at the gaming competition. Not enough there will be the "Datadisco" withthe best oldschool tunes and a live act. For the small appetite there will be a catering with free coffee and a big barbecue outside. 'Cause you know: The real party is outside! (cg) (Translation: ub)

Edgar Schwan has published a first version of AbiWord 2.5.1 for his x11-enviroment Cygnix. AbiWord is a professional word processing program with many functions:
  • Easy to learn interface
  • Very wide range of supported file formats like MS Word, WordPerfect, OpenOffice, OpenDocument and many more
  • Unlimited Undo and Redo
  • Solid (X)HTML export with CSS support
  • Import of graphics
  • Automatic spell aid. Support of ispell, aspell and myspell
  • Design patterns
  • Configurable index
  • and much more

Additionally the archive contains the KHTML based browser osb-browser for displaying the online-help which has the following features:
  • (X)HTML Rendering Engine with CSS support
  • Javascript support
  • SSL support

According to Schwan the browser has still some problems. Therefore it is not available for its own. For displaying the online help the program is a good solution. Many Internet sites work proper, too. (cg) (Translation: dr)
