Spreadsheet software: ignition 1.0 beta 1 released
Press release - Since the development of ignition proceeds much slower than originally anticipated, we decided to release an up-to-date and not restricted beta version.

Your support should push the further development forward. But we're also relying on your help to be able to complete the product. Particularly, we need help with the following things:
  • Revising and completing of the available documentation
  • Translation of that documentation to German and English - other languages are welcome, too, of course
  • Translations of the program texts themselves
  • New and more icons that can be used in the tool bars
  • Reports of existing bugs in the whole package
At least the tree most contributing people will get a free version of <ignition> as a compensation for their help. A mailing list will be available, a bug tracker already is.

We're looking forward to your contributions! (snx)

Hardware-Hack: Shutting down Pegasos with software
Carsten Siegner has developed a hardware-hack which makes it possible shutting down the Pegasos with software. With the current version of MorphOS this is not possible because the Firmware is completely hidden.

Siegners hack consists of a little wiring which will be connected to the floppy-port of the Pegasos and then can shut down the ATX-power pack of the Pegasos. It is released by little tool developed by Guido Meersmann which controls the connection with the help of the trackdisk.device.

Installation:

The tool "MotorTool_MOSPPC" must be renamed to "Shutdown" and then copied to MOSSYS:C. After building and connecting the hardware now you can shut down the computer with entering "Shutdown" in a Shell-window.

Some versions of Ambient contain the menu point "shut down" - because this also calls up MOSSYS:C/Shutdown the command should shut down the computer as well.

The author points out that he gives no liability if there should be any harm to the hardware which are caused by copying this wiring. You also should have a closer look at the Readme in the programm archive "Motortool.lha".

Motor tool: MotorTool.lha

Status-Update of KHTML-port
Marcin 'Marcik' Kwiatkowski has completed the FAQ to his KHTML-port with further aspects: The publication of a first beta version is planned for September or October.

A few source codes of some parts of the project will be not released. But the complete souce code will be given to morphzone.org in order to have the guarantee that the project will be developed further if the author should lose the interest.

The MorphOS-version will be supplied for free. Currently versions for other operating systems (AmigaOS, AROS) are not developed. (cg) (Translation: dr)
