Free Pascal: Online compiler
Marcus 'ALB42' Sackrow has established a website, which can write and compile Free-Pascal source code of all Amiga systems. This site is available in two different versions:
- This version includes an editor written in Javascript featuring syntax highlighting and other functions for modern browsers like e.g. OWB under MorphOS.
- That second version is based on simple HTML and should also work in older browsers like IBrowse.

AROS: AEROS 5.0 beta 1 for Orange Pi Lite available to registered customers
Registered customers of Pascal Papara's Linux-hosted AROS distribution AEROS can download a trial version for the Orange Pi Lite (screenshot). The version AEROS 5.0 beta 1 offers an updated Linux base, new AROS files based on the indieGO!-version and optionally an automatic participation in the common Verium-Miningpool.
Since the Orange Pi Lite is equipped with only 512 MB RAM, a fast MicroSD card as swap partition as well as the browser NetSurf are recommended. If you want to visit more complex websites, you may use Midori.

AmigaOS 4: Commercial calendar software AOrganiser gets Sync function
According to Andy Broad he has invested more than 300 hours updating the calendar software AOrganiser. Now it is possible to "sync your AmigaOS diary with your phone or other mobile device via Google Calendar". Additionally "a suite of python and ARexx scripts offer import and export of iCal / VCal formatted events and invitations as well as syncing to a remote server via CalDAV."
Currently only Google is supported as CalDAV server, but other servers will be added if there is a demand. AOrganiser is available for 11 British pound (about 11,40 Euro) on A-EON's Amistore.
Most important changes in AOrganiser 2.1:
- The Event window features an extended range of options for entering information, the single line title and notes section have been expanded to:
- Title
- Multiline Notes
- Organiser
- Location
- Alarms can now be set to trigger at arbitrary offsets from the start or end of the event, notifying via RingHIO, requester, sound or executing a command.
- Custom gadget to display the events in the main diary window, with cutomisable colours and fonts.
- Optimisations to the time entry gadget.
- Extended features in the built in calendar gadget, with a new choose date requester utilising the same gadget as you see in the main window.
- Fully customisable pen colours, allowing a diary look that suits your own preferences.
- Keyboard navigation in the diary window using arrow keys.
- The ability to select days or events and operate on them via arexx scripts.
- Massively extended ARexx interface.
- Extended but fully backwards compatible IFF diary file format.
- Extensive time zone support for event that take place in different parts of the country (or world) to the diary's primary locale.
- ICal and vCal import / export options.
- The ability to sync with Google Calendar via the CalDAV API.
- Advanced searching using AmigaDOS patterns.

Emulator: FS-UAE 2.9.6dev (beta)
Frode Solheim has released a new developer version 2.9.6 of the emulator FS-UAE providing the following changes:
Changes in FS-UAE 2.9.6dev:
- Changed default fade in/out duration, only fade in fullscreen
- FS-UAE default is now to show a 692×540 image, not stretched to fill screen
- Use scale = legacy to revert to old default behavior (can put in Host.fs-uae or use FS-UAE Launcher set set globally)
- New option scale (choose between full, integer, legacy and no scaling)
- New option stretch (replaces keep_aspect, though it still works)
- F11 is now a dedicated toggle auto zoom function, Alt/Cmd+Z cycles through zoom modes as before
- Render a frame around the view when not stretched (frame = 0 to disable)
- Cartridge freeze shortcut is now Alt/Cmd+C
- Alt/Cmd+A now toggles stretch mode (aspect correction)
- Imported updated translations from crowdin.com
In short, the default scaling/cropping behaviour has changed (though you may not see the change if you have specified certain scaling options). Also, the FS-UAE menu itself is being changed so it will work better on non-16:9 displays (not complete yet).
Changes in FS-UAE Launcher 2.9.6dev:
- Imported updated translations from crowdin.com
- Moved additional game databases to a separate settings page
Changes in FS-UAE Arcade 2.9.6dev:
- FS-UAE Arcade now defaults to fullscreen
- Run FS-UAE with window_border = 0 to reduce flickering on launch
