The latest version of the text viewer EvenMore includes the following changes:
- Boopsi depth and sizing gadgets will now get moved on window resize rather that recreated

BarsnPipes New: Further development canceled
Alfred Faust wrote: With these words I announce to the Amiga/MorphOS/OS4-users-commuity that because for health reasons I had to make up my mind to cancel the further development of the probably best multimedia-MIDI-sequencer called BarsnPipes New.
This decision has been very diffucult because I have been developing this program for almost 10 years with great pleasure. I am not the person who started this program but who developed it further. Therefore I want to say thank you to Todor Fay and his brilliant co-programmers - for one of the best programs which has been ever written for the AMIGA.
Nevertheless, as long as I am able I will read and answer the eMails of the Newsgroups.
