Transfer program for Casio graphical calculators
Uwe Ryssel wrote:
I have uploaded ACas c0.2beta which is a transfer program for the Casio graphical calculator CFX-9850G to the Aminet.
With the help of the program you can send and receice all data of the calculator. These data can be saved and loaded as CAT-format. The CAT-format is used by the original transfer program of Casio and is the most frequent format with which these data (e.g. programs) are handled.

IRC-Kanal for AmigaOS XL-User
To relief other channels and to give a quick assistance for problems there will be an own IRC channel:
Channel: #AOS_XL-Help
IRC-Server: irc.belwue.de
Port:6667
This is not a steady channel and I cannot promise that you will find every time someone there. But I will keep it open as long as I am online.

VNC: zvnc V.1.1
David Gerber has released version 1.1 of his VNC client "zvnc"
on 28. December 2001. Following the changes:
- Bugfix: Port- and cx_priority arguments were not
observed.
- New: Documentation extended with more FAQ entries.
"zvnc" is a small
VNC-Client
without display support (for controlling a second machine with monitor).
The advantage of "zvnc" are a minimum of data to be send via the network,
because the graphics data are not applied. That makes control by mouse and
keyboard very straight.
The archive contains versions for AmigaOS 2.x / 3.x, and MorphOS.
Download: zvnc_1.1.lha

Telepolis: Lifelong imprisonment becaus of distribution of unused machine time?
In this article Birgitte Zarzer reports about the system administrator David McOwen,
who provided unused machine time of several computers of the University of Georgia to
distributed.net, and thereby catched harshly
trouble in return. He will face court in January and possibly will catch very long
lasting imprisonment.
There are also many Amiga users helping distributed.amiga.org
to crack the RC5 key. This worldwide competition is about to crack a 64bit key by calculating all of the
18.4 trillons of possibilities. One can provide unused computing capabilities of the own machine for this
matter by using some specified software.
In case you are utilizing "foreign" machines for this, after reading this article you appear to be adviced
to raise a written permission.
See title link for the Telepolis article (German).

clickBOOM: Defender of the Crown - S-File 15
Defender of the Crown (for Windows and MAC) is basically finished. It is currently being tested
against bugs. In the last few weeks we added a whole new type of game
play to it -- missions. Basically, if you accept, and fulfill a mission,
you get a reward during the game. Missions range from defeating a certain
lord, to rescuing damsels, etc. Rewards can be additional gold, soldiers,
and more. It plays very nice and adds a whole new dimension to the tried
and tested original Defender game play.
