MorphOS: Odyssey Web Browser 1.18
Fabien 'Fab' Coeurjoly has released another update of the WebKit-engine based web browser Odyssey for MorphOS. Among others the HTML5-compatibility was increased and uploading documents to Google Docs and Drive was improved. All changes are listed in the Readme-file. As usual there is also a version without SVG-support which uses less memory.
Please note: If you have used instead of the version 1.17 from the website of the author the one from the MorphOS-CD 3.0/3.1, so please overwrite the file conf/font/fonts.conf during the installation.

AmigaOS 4: ShowFiles 0.9
ShowFiles formerly known as DisplayFiles is command line programm for AmigaOS 4. "It displays a sorted and text-formatted list of files, drawers (dirs) and soft/hard-links on disk or other storage medium. It will also display their additional information such as size, date, possible comment, executable header type (68k or ELF program), protection-bits."
Changes in version 0.9:
- Added switches for FILES, DIRS, and LINKS, it is also possible to
intermix them.
- Changed the name for "EHead" to "Exe" (and "eh" to "e").
- Fetching of exe-headers -> little faster (cleaned up some code there).
- Updated Install/Uninstall scripts further, to be more safer and error
resistant, and typos fixed.
- Updated the documentation some further, except for documenting what's new.
- Output slightly changed.

amiga-coding.de: Developer forum for all Amiga-Systems
Olaf Schönweiß has established a forum which is to serve as discussion basis for developer of all Amiga systems. According to Schönweiß the site is supposed to be "neutral and to support all systems and the cooperation". "Emotional" discussions are not desirable. It is based on utilitybase.com which is not available anymore.
Schönweiß asks all former developers registered at Utilitybase to upload their Utilitybase archives on archive.org to amiga-coding.de because he is not allowed to do it himself.

For this it is important to know how these Chinese characters are transcribed in Pinyin. Additionally an Unicode-font is required which can display Chinese characters.
Scriba now also has an ARexx-port with three commands. Complete ASCII-texts or unknown characters in UTF8-code can be added with the Rexx-command to an existing text.
