AmigaOS 4: AttachMail 1.4/FastCompress 1.7/FastView 1.1/NetDock 50.5/SysMon 3.1
Guillaume 'zzd10h' Boesel has updated five of his AmigaOS-4-programms AttachMail, FastCompress, FastView, NetDock and SysMon.
  • With AttachMail you can add files to your favorite mailer by Contextual Menu (RightMouse button), (YAM and SimpleMail). In version 1.4 the the PNG icons were changed to Amiga Icons
  • FastCompress includes 4 tools to compress files and drawers with 2 clicks (LHA, LZX, ZIP, 7z). With version 1.7 the PNG-Icon-module is not required any longer as well. Additionally AmigaOS 4.1.3 is not required any longer since the availability of the AboutBox.mcc is checked
  • FastView is a MUI program who allows you to show your pictures by selecting files or drawer with right mouse button or by drag'n drop. Additionally to the two changes mentioned above, the speed was improved and a search area was added.
  • NetDock is a docky to monitor the network activity which also does not use PNG-Icons any longer
  • SysMon is a MUI-based (little) system monitor. The Ragemem benchmark was reworked and a lot of Amiga configurations (for comparison) were added
