Big update at www.kultpower.de

Presently in the PowerPlay-data base you can recall 229 test results, find 30 scanned test reports, as well as 35 advertising announcements of games from old Powerplay issues. Who is looking for a certain test report of a game can use the search function. Who participated in the golden Powerplay- and ASM-times will be interested in the new opinion polls. Have fun!

Alternative-Games.de will start on December 1st, 2000
Lately there were an increasing number of cooperations and joint-ventures of firms that only released for one of the alternative computer systems until now. We want to support the activities of these firms by establishing a portal for users of every alternative system. This portal will contain news, reviews and much more.

From the start there will be an Amiga and a Macintosh section. For additional sections we are missing people who are willing to help us to make the project a success. We are looking for section managers for Linux, BeOS and Milan (Atari). But we still need some persons for the Amiga and Mac sections. If you would like to help us with reviews and reports, please mail to info@alternative-games.de.

New YAM-extension: HTMLread
YAM is not able to handle mails written in HTML-code. It is very difficult to read these mails with all the tags.

HTMLread fixes this problem. It automatically recognizes such mails and sends them to the HTML-viewer of your choice. Every HTML-viewer is supported. You can choose from a predefined list or make you own one. The predefined list contains: MultiView (mit HTMLdatatype), SimpleView, HTMLview (Demo), OpenUrl, Voyager, IBrowse, AWebSE (OS3.5) and AWeb.

HTMLread will easily be installed using the installer. HTMLread is freeware.

Jarno van der Linden on the Open Amiga-ML


AmigaSDK: Atoll
On November, 25th 2000 Jarno van der Linden published the alpha version of the developer tool 'Atoll'. This tool converts C link libraries, like libpng.a or libjpeg.a almost automatically into a tool set (tool sets on AmigaSDK "match" to the libraries on other systems). Up to now is has been tested successful with libpng.a and libjpeg.a (part of gfx/misc/libjpeg-6a.tbz2).

To use Atoll knowledge of VP assembler is necessary, and knowledge of sed and regular expressions are useful. Atoll itself additionally needs the gd.tgz-Archiv.

The documentation for Atoll declares how to convert libjpeg.a into a tool set. To try this example the gfx/misc/libjpeg-6a.tbz2-Archiv is needed.

Download: dev/c/Atoll.tgz (27K), Readme

Tester for SMB-Filesystem Wanted
Olaf Barthel wrote:
I created a counterpart to my Amiga Samba port. A filesystem to share files with other SMB servers. With knobs on I need some help: who would like to test this filesystem, may please get in contact with me via e-mail (olsen@sourcery.han.de). It is about to find errors and to enhance functionality of the filesystem. Experiences with Samba and debugging tools for Amiga (Enforcer, Sashimi, Wipeout, etc.) are presumed.
