Context menu: ContextSAS Version 1.65
The program ContextSAS by Andre Dörffler enables you to provide and to use
context sensitive menus for AmigaOS3.5+. The DefIcons system
is supported. By using a few additional tools one can thereby iconify even
Workbench windows and create links.
With the new version 1.65 newdrawer_gui
was added in the tools, which can be used as replacement for newdrawer.
This time with GUI. This version offers the possibility of defining
a dividing line for each menu entry and the activation by the middle
or left mouse button is now functioning correctly. In the next update a
hierarchical menu definition will be added, so stay tuned...

New Amiga-Product: Pure Basic
Xing Interactive are very proud to announce the release of the powerful and versatile programming language "Pure Basic". The product will be released in the second week of February 2003 and is available to consumers at the very competitive price of 29,95 Euro in DVD case packaging.
Pure Basic is more advanced and flexible then any of the other Basic programming languages currently on the market and it comes at a fraction of the price. The beauty of this product is the versatility though as you can develop your own games and applications on PC Windows, Linux or even AmigaOS! Speed is another unique selling point. Where other Basic programming languages crawl at a slow pace due to complex instruction translations Pure Basic shines by even outperforming C++ written code. If you ever wanted to program your own commercial quality games or applications in an easy to learn and even more easy to use language then this is your chance! (ps)

the suggestions in various mails something else could become of it. Everyone who would like to participate in the inquiry, please
answer the following questions by sending an e-mail with the reference "Soms3D". These are the questions:
What do you think? What shall become of the Soms3D engine?

In a new statement (title link) Raquel Velasco und Bill Buck of Genesi have
a.o. announced a contract for Pegasos and MorphOS based set-top boxes, which

Golem: Data Rights Group against the Collection of Flat-rate IP Numbers
Regulations designed to protect personal rights have been twisted to do the opposite.
After the government of Darmstadt, according to multiple press reports, directed Internet
provider T-Online to archive which customers used which IP numbers at which times (because
of many customer complaints), the Independent Center for Data Rights (ULD) commented on
the decision. The Darmstadt oversight officials pointed out that the ruling was limited, and that
the rights situation to the officials of other German states would be unchanged.

Roland 'Cyco Myco' Weigert writes:
I just read two very interesting columns at CHIP Online. The first is from January 14th and covers the topic:
"Hacker Group: Spy Tool for File Exchange Software." According to this there is apparently a hacker group
in the service of the RIAA which uses a covertly installed worm in Windows and Linux media players to see
what media files the user has, then sends the information back over the Internet to the music industry (RIAA).
In the second article, from yesterday, comes this:
(Music Industry: No Spying in File-sharing Software),
denies the RIAA, who have something to do with all this.

amiga-news.de: Small Changes in Design
In order to make our menus a bit more readable we have removed the headings for 'Sub pages' and 'Special Pages.' These links may now be found in the upper menu under the link ´Sub Pages´ (bottom row, all the way on the right.
The links to our Partner Pages, which were formerly in the upper menu on the third row, are now in the right menu under ´Amiga Network.´
This was reached by a clear division between internal (upper menu) and external (right menu), and the right menu has become considerably shorter and thereby more readable. (ps) (Translation: dm)

Paula-to-AHI redirector) never made it out to the users. Well, it's never
too late --- download the archive and please make sure you read the
included README.
Please note that I packed this up under Linux, rather than under AmigaOS.
So it is possible that permission bits may not be set correctly --- so if
things don't work, look for that first.

amiga-news.de: Amazon partner program buttons built in
Along the discussion (German) during the last week about new possibilities of funding there was several times the proposal among the comments to join the Amazon partner program. We signed it up now and there are now the two buttons for that built in at the right menu.
Many of you are buying books at Amazon. If you will do so in future by using one of the two buttons we will obtain a provision, which we can then use to fund amiga-news.de. So this is a kind of possibility to support us financially.

TV card software: AmithlonTV beta version 230
Guido Mersmann has released the beta version 230 of his TV card driver software
AmithlonTV.
New with this version:
- BUGFIX:
Found the crappy crash bug, that caused the bt8x8 driver sometimes to crash.
The same bug seems to caused the video freezing, the picture startup problem
and some fuzzy system trouble. I made fullspeed resizing tests without any
further picture trouble or crashes. Sometimes it's worth to rework a trouble
making driver from scratch!
- FEATURE:
The new reworked bt8x8 driver is able to process as many picture buffers
as required.
- FEATURE:
The new reworked bt8x8 driver is pre calculating the risc code size before
compiling, which causes less memory usage.
- BUGFIX:
Fixed a window sizing problem with smear (reported by Carsten Siegner).

Individual Computers: New year, new drivers, new prices
Catweasel MK3 PCI/Flipper is not only a PCI-card, it can also be used in an
Amiga. The first SID-driver has now been released for AmigaOS: Stefan Haubenthal
has written a 6581sid.library for common C64 emulators like Frodo or MagiC64.
Download: 6581sid.lha - 1442 Bytes
Unfortunately, the new year also brings bad news: Higher taxes, higher energy
cost and higher wages at our contractors force us to increase some prices for the
first time in the nearly nine-year old history of the company. This mainly affects
the new products. On the other hand, we will decrease prices for the existing
inventory.
The new pricelist is valid from February 1st, 2003.
Prices at your local reseller may be different from the prices listed here,
especially because of differen VAT rates in the European countries. Prices
listed here include the German VAT of 16%. Price lists published previously
become invalid with the publication of this list.
Buddha Flash IDE controller 49,90 EUR
Catweasel MK3 PCI/Flipper 89,90 EUR
Catweasel Z-II (incl. Buddha) 74,90 EUR
Catweasel ISA (PC-Version) 39,90 EUR
Gemini SCMS-killer (opto in) 149,00 EUR
Gemini SCMS-killer (coax in) 99,00 EUR
Graffiti Videocard 19,00 EUR
IDE-fix Express upgrade A1200 24,90 EUR
IDE-fix Adapter A4000 14,90 EUR
ISDN-Surfer w/o OVP 59,90 EUR
ISDN-Surfer w/ OVP 79,90 EUR
Silversurfer 29,90 EUR
Silversurfer limited Edition 34,90 EUR
A600 adapter for Silversurfer 9,90 EUR
X-Surf 2 ethernet 89,90 EUR
Lyra keyboard adapter 29,90 EUR
VarIO (Zorro/26-pin version) 49,00 EUR
VarIO (A1200 version) 59,00 EUR
PCI POST code display 39,90 EUR
Indivision Flickerfixer 99,00 EUR
Retro Replay 50,00 EUR
Retro Replay incl. Silversurfer 75,00 EUR
C-One reconfigurable computer mainboard aprox. 250,00 EUR
The products Kylwalda and IDE-fix express A1200 will only be produced on special
order. We're currently considering production outside Germany to keep the target
price of 189,- EUR for the Delfina soundcard.
Something funny at the end: Individual Computers is being massively attacked by
viruses in the past few weeks. Up to eight emails containing a virus arrive every
day. The amusing part about this is that it's viruses that only spread through
Windows and Outlook. Those who want to harm us should know that we're not using
sub-standard software, and attacks like this are simply ineffectual.

Pre-Releases of the new RC5-72 Clients available
Under the title link the AmigaOS-Clients (68k, PowerUp, WarpUp) for
the RC5-72 contest can be dowloaded. As said on amiga.org
the PowerUp-version is 100% MorphOS compatible. The clients
are so called "release candidate" versions. The versions have the numbers v2.9001.479.
The aim of the project RC5-75 is with as many computers as possible to decode a
72-bit-key. There are trillions of possibilites to compute. To take part in this you
do not have to have knowledge in programming, only free computer capacity. Jut
install te client, get some blocks and after decoding send them back. Help, a FAQ and
more explanations you will find at Amiga RC5 Team Effort.
