Hyperion: Videos "25 years of Development" and "AmigaOS running on the eLAP"
As a celebration of the 25th anniversary of the Amiga computer, Hyperion Entertainment has made a video using the Gource CVS visualization software showing a time-compressed version of 25 years of Amiga development.
At the same time,here is another video showing AmigaOS running on the eLAP ("Embedded Linux Application Platform"). The eLAP was a PDA manufactured by IBM using a PowerPC 405EP. Sadly, the device was never sold and this version of AmigaOS never released.

Text viewer: EvenMore 0.69 (2.8.10)
EvenMore is a test viewer written in AmigaE and by Chris Perver. The following features have been added since our last message:
- Fixed bug which stopped hyperlinks to files outside the EvenMore path from working
- Amended EvenMore data objects to allow it to handle exec lists as file buffers instead of a standard memory block. This will enable files to be loaded much quicker through plugins, etc. without having to worry about allocating enough memory beforehand
- Enabled parsebuffer() and getlines() functions to scan through execlists. Optimised code for these routines so hopefully they should be faster too
- Amended clipboard, printing and file saving routines so they will work with exec lists
- Modified file search function to send results to the main window, using an exec list as a file buffer
- Modified Dir2Text plugin to use an exec list as buffer, instead of a standard memory block
