DigiBoosterPro 3: Public betatesting
Press release After a long period of closed testing the DigiBooster 3 music tracker enters the public beta stage. The main goal of public betatesting is to check program core stability and performance on different operating systems and hardware configurations.
Demo versions of DigiBooster 3 for AmigaOS 4 and MorphOS are available for download on the official DigiBooster website at the title link.

The key features of the new DigiBooster 3 are:
- Fully scalable MUI graphic interface with themes
- New player engine, portable and AHI independent
- Backwards compatible with DigiBoosterPro 2.x (the same module format)
- PowerPC native versions for AmigaOS 4 and MorphOS

Metacompiler: PortablE r6
Christopher Handley's Metacompiler PortablE translates the programming language E to other languages. Changes:
- It now comes with some nice modules for graphics, sound, music & GUIs. These require no knowledge of AmigaOS programming, and were inspired by the simplicity of BASIC languages like AMOS.
- It comes with full documentation for all of these modules, along with smaller & bigger examples. The preview release does not include these examples, but instead I will be show-casing one of these examples every few days. Keep an eye on the new official PortablE forum for them!
- The documentation has been revamped to be more beginner friendly, and the PortablE installer has been made easier to use. If you still get stuck, then let me know, and I will see what I can do.
- In addition to that, I have made available a large collection of my own useful modules (in the CSH folder), which you can use if you want. These are not properly documented yet, but I will look at documenting them where there is interest.
- There are also various other improvements, and a lot of bug fixes
- As usual it supports Amiga OS4, OS3, AROS, MorphOS & Windows. However (1) the new graphics module does not yet work on Amiga OS3, (2) the new modules do not yet work on Windows, and (3) MorphOS support is still experimental.
