Turn-based space strategy game: Imperium Terranum 2.808
For a while the source code of the turn-based space strategy game Imperium Terranum 2 is being ported from Pascal to C and adopted to graphic cards. In version 2.808 some minor bugs have been fixeed:
- Image Cache Handling war falsch (Memory Leaks)
- Speicherstrukturen für "freie" Schiffe ohne Planetenbezug (z.B. Maques oder Ceborcs) wurden nie freigegeben (auch im Original nicht)
- Speicher für Medplayer-Module wird nun von der API der medplayer.lib wieder freigegeben

amiga-news.de: Translators wanted
Had amiga-news.de's news-items been published in a couple of languages in the past (besides German and English also in Danish, Flemish, French, Japanese, Polish, Spanish and Turkish), eventually just the english version proceeded. In July 2000, our editor Daniel Reimann joined our team of translators, remaining as its sole member for twelve years already.
For Daniel's relief as well as for enabling him to write more original articles himself, we are looking for additional translators of our German news-items into English language. In case you could imagine to join our honorary, independent news-site, please let us know by writing to our e-mail address team@amiga-news.de. (snx)

Text editor: Amiga Source Editor 1.25
By releasing version 1.2 (2019), about two months ago Alain Fontanin has resumed the development of his "Amiga Source Editor" (ASE) which originally started in 1989.
By the support and the feedback of our readers, the author now has released version 1.25. Changes in detail:
- Significant improvement in overall performance
- Significant improvement in the processing speed of a document containing lines of more than 4,096 characters (even on a 68000!)
- Integration of the German localization
- Integration of cursor movement management, 2 modes available:
- Free mode: the cursor can move anywhere in the document and tabs are treated as a series of spaces
- Non-free mode: the cursor follows the text and manages the tabs
- Possibility to customize the size (4 or 8) and the saving of tabs
- Processing of the 'DEL' key (oops on Mac it is not present as a physical key!)
- Ability to set a default location for documents
- An ASE2019 installation script
- The documentation is divided into two parts: French and English
- New examples of ARexx scripts for ASE2019
- Use of the screen font, instead of 'topaz-8' for the menus
- Fixed some shortcuts to stick with the Amiga standard
Do not hesitate to contact the author if you encounter a bug or if you have an idea of evolution.

US trademark: "Amiga" now registered by Amiga Corporation
Last autumn, Hyperion had withdrawn its opposition against Cloanto's registration of the US trademark 'Amiga'. According to current paperwork from the US Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) the mark is now properly registered.
The document still lists Cloanto Corporation as the owner of the mark. We are told by Mike Battilana (Cloanto, Amiga Corporation) that this is caused by the USPTO's slowness when adding results from the assignment queue to the public database. He points out that the the mark has already been assigned to Amiga Corporation back in January and that he expects the USPTO database to get updated accordingly in the next few days.
Note from staff: Since the USPTO is already pointing out a "likelihood of confusion" of the US marks Hyperion applied for (AmigaOne, AmigaOS) with the 'Amiga' mark, we assume that these attempted registrations will be denied in the near future now that the latter has been registered.

VirusZ III: Bootblock file updated
In December the Virus Help Team reported a new bootblock virus (amiga-news.de reported). A week ago a new bootblock file was released to use with VirusZ III v1.02. The team wrote: "Some of the bootblock viruses we have added to the VirusZ_III.Bootblocks, will make checksum changes with each mutation, that means that every time the virus infects, it change code. So there is absolutely no guarantee that the new viruses, we have added it will be reported as a the virus, because the virus could have mutated and changed it's code. But we will add as many mutations as we possible can."
The team also explained under the title link: "VirusZ is still the classic antivirus software for Amiga computers. Virus Help Team have made this VirusZ_III.bootblocks file, because there is nothing else we can do, no one from Virus Help Team knows anything about programming and can't make an antivirus program and Virus Help Team does not have the scource code for the xvs.library by Georg Hörmann. So that is why we think this is better than nothing, at least now VirusZ III can find bootvirus unknown to xvs.library."
