MorphOS: AutoVisible.sbar
Thomas Igracki has created a screenbar module for Ambient called AutoVisible.sbar. On MorphZone the author wrote:

"If you are using an AutoScroll screen (where the real width of the screen is greater than the visible width) and it annoyed you that not all sbar modules, especially the clock;) are visible if you are "working" on the left side of the screen, then you should my new screenbar module!

If the "left" side of such a screen is visible, then some of the screenbar modules aren't visible in the titlebar because they are adjusted to the right and therefore (partially) in the invisible area.

AutoVisible.sbar adds an extra empty space (depending on the position of the screen) to the titlebar, to have all your sbar modules in the visible area. Well, only if you are not having that many modules, that they don't fit into the visible area;)"

AROS: Video shows SMP (symmetric multiprocessing) test with fractal generator
Under the title link, a video published by Michal Schulz shows a fractal generator which demonstrates the usage of one and of four processor cores under AROS/x64.

The result is "not fully optimal yet". Michael Schulz further explained: "Drawing fractal requires quite frequent access to common bitmap shared among all tasks on all cores, so a spinlock is used for protection, thus, speed penalty. One could surely do that better :) There are also tons of memory allocations in the threads." (snx) (Translation: dr)
