Financial Software: Bonds Version 1.84 - corrected version available
Sven Dröge: "After I've checked the last version once more, it now should run stable, meaning the share price update works again. Now a backup (optional) is done on import to have your old data available in case of an error. There also were problems with the date. I released the archive on the site, again."

Bonds is a financial software for bonds management of any kind, but mainly focuses on shares. This software is specialized for the financial center of Germany and best handles German bonds, since it uses the bond ident number system of the German stock exchange. (ps) (Translation: mj)

Manfred Tremmels Homepage


Invoicing: MT-Rechnung III Version 1.11
There was an update released for MT-Rechnung III version 1.11. This program is freeware under GPL. MT-Rechnung is being an invoice processing program by Manfred Tremmel managing addresses (offices, employees, customers, and suppliers), goods, different kinds of delivery, goods receipt and issue records.

Automatic stock recording is impelemented (from v1.04 including inventory) as well as an automatic price accounting. Prices can be scaled regarding number of units, shipping and handling regarding wheight. An accounting function is being worked on, accounts and account groups can already be created from v1.04.

MT-Rechnung III builds on a database especially developed for this, crashes don't cause any loss of data anymore, several users can use the same dataset simultanously via network.

Printing forms are not integrated in the program, but are external PostScript fiels, so it is no problem to add new or adjust existing forms. If no PostScript capable printer is available a PostScript interpreter like HWPost or GhostScript can be used for printing.

Becaus of the acute lack of time the programmer Manfred Tremmel can only work very few on MT-Rechnung III, thus he is hoping for active cooperation to not let the project drop off completely. The source code is available for donwload.

Amiga Arena: Interview with Sascha Brandt ("The last Seal")
Olaf Köbnik writes:
Amiga Arena - Interview Action
1999 a demo version of the adventures "The last Seal" was published, developed by the Swiss team "Ancor".

Since a lot of things were announced, yet never realized we're now even more pleased to hear that "The last Seal" has been further developed throughout 2001.

Half of the game has supposedly been rewritten in "C" and "The last Seal" seems to promise a downright crazy adventure. (Let's hope that it will be finished).

The Amiga Arena held a short interview with the developer Sascha Brandt.

Further information is available under Ancor. (sd) (Translation: sr)
