AmigaOS 4: Claws Mail 3.9.2 for AmiCygnix
For his X11 environment AmiCygnix, Edgar Schwan has released an update of his port of the mail client Claws Mail. The program is based on the GTK+-Toolkit (screenshots: main window, presenting a PDF file, Python console with online help).

  • New plugins:
    • pdf_viewer: Provides the ability to display attached PDF files in the mail window.
    • python: Enables the inclusion of scripts written in the Python programming language.
  • The SSL/TLS support for receiving and sending mails has been updated.
  • The start scripts and the icon set have been updated. Claws Mail can thereby be e.g. now also be started individually on the Workbench.
  • Updated tool "bogofilter" for detecting spam mail.
  • The plug-in "gtkhtml2_viewer" has been removed, unfortunately it does not work anymore.
Supported protocols:
  • POP3 / APOP

OpenStreetMap viewer: MUIMapparium 0.8
Marcus 'ALB42' Sackrow's OpenStreetMap viewer Mapparium has been updated to version 0.8 for all Amiga systems.

He wrote: "One disadvantage of writing a program relying on web resources is, that you have to update that program everytime the webresource is changed/updated. In the next days the search for MUIMapparium will break again, and the Find by IP/ Find me is broken a while before already.

So I updated MUIMapparium to Version 0.8 I also added some small new features, like some more shortcuts and also by popular demand to jump automatically to the first search result. Best update soon before the search function does not work anymore.

Also the 68k freepascal compiler got some updates which hopefully improve the stability and speed of the m68k-amiga Version." (snx) (Translation: dr)

Windows: MagicWB style
Sylvio Kurze wrote: As passionate Amiga user I never get used to the look and feel of Windows. I missed out the "good old days" when there were warm and comfortable colours as well as sharp buttons wizh high contrast. For me who has started with AmigaOS 2.1 and MagicWB, the excellent design is the main featute defining the Amiga Workbench.

Therefore I decided to start a project for bringing this look and feel to Windows.

It includes:
  • Over 2500 MagicWB icons have been converted into the PNG and Windows-ICO format
  • RocketDock background
  • Rainmeter skin
  • Windowblinds theme
  • Background and goodies
  • Several mouse pointers
Required software:
  • Rainmeter for the Amiga bar and Spinning Boingball
  • WindowBlinds for a complete rework of windows, menus and task bar
    (I know, this takes some money but it is worth the 5 Dollar!)
  • RocketDock for a MagicWB-like launcher
    (It looks like Mac OS but is highly customizable.)
