MorphOS: Update of eDonkey Client Bourriquet to Version 0.2.5
Bourriquet, the filesharing client for the eDonkey network from SixK (reverse engineering of the protocols and kernel development) and Rusback (mainly development of the GUI by way of MUI), has reached beta version 0.2.5.

This version is mostly considered for test use (in which debug output is generated) but it also allows one to contact a server, search for data, download small amounts of data, and upload data.

Interested developers may contact either co-author if they would like to take part in this project. There's still a lot to do and we're looking for support, as in the related case of Morgoth, the source of which is available at Castor CVS.

Directory Opus 4: Status Update
Jacek Rzeuski, until now responsible for the continuing development of the well-known file manager "Directory Opus 4," must shelve his work because of competing demands on his time.

Programmers interested in further developing the program or in compiling it for Amiga OS4 or MorphOS etc. will find more info about this under the title link. (cg) (Translation: dm)

E3B: USB controller 'Subway' - another production run? (Update)
E3B are currently gauging the demand for their clockport USB controller Subway. Using this expansion, even Classic Amigas lacking Zorro- or PCI-slots have access to USB peripherals. The remaining stock of Subway cards has been sold quite some time ago - but given sufficient demand, E3B would be willing to produce another batch.

If you're seriously interested in purchasing a Subway USB controller, please contact Michael Boehmer. At least 30 orders are required to justify the production costs. The anticipated price for a single unit would be about 89 EUR (incl. VAT).

Update: (07.09.2004, 13:45, cg)

To use the Subway with an Amiga 600, a socalled 'A600 clockport adapter' is required. Jens Schönfeld from Individual Computers tells us that these adapters are in stock right now and ship for 9.90 EUR. (cg) (Translation: cg)

Michal 'kiero' Wozniak (ANF)


MorphOS: New version of 'ShowGirls'
'ShowGirls' is a picture viewer from Michal 'kiero' Wozniak that includes image processing functions and combines features known from MiniShowPicture, ShowPPC and other similiar products (Screenshot 1, Screenshot 2).

Some of the features:
  • Easy browsing of directories (with mouse and keyboard)
  • Lots of supported file formats thanks to Datatypes system.
  • Nice MUI GUI
  • Image processing options like resizing, balance, smoothing, cropping and a lot more
  • Saving of images in JPEG or PNG
  • Loading/displaying images with alpha channel
  • Scaling image display to fit in the window (separate control over enlarging and reducing)
  • Scrolling/zooming of big images
  • Drag&drop of files/directories to be displayed
  • Optional bilinear filtering of the displayed image
  • Notification (refreshing of list of files when new files are copied in/removed)
  • Thumbnailes generator (with templates) (Example)
  • 2 browser modes (names list or thumbnails)
  • Thumbnails browser optimized for viewing pictures taken with digicam (very fast thumbnail creation).

Changes in this version:

Fixed:
  • ShowGirls icon is used as appicon when application is iconified.
  • When starting without param sometimes there were trash in string gadget.
  • Region marking was inaccurate.
  • Problem when viewing small images, like icons, etc.
  • Levels operator. Formula was slightly broken. If somebody misses old mode then I can re-add it.
  • Other smaller or bigger bugs.
New:
  • Bugs (probably).
  • Using NList class for list of files. Added date and filetype displaying. Sorting works on any of them, including secondary sorting criteria (press SHIFT and select second column to sort by).
  • Thumbnails in directory browser. Adjustable thumb size and border. Thumbnails cache (with several compression methods and other options). "Reduced memory usage" mode. Utilizing special properties in JPEG's created with digital cameras (results in more than 10 times faster thumbnails creation!!)
  • Much faster finding of next/previous picture.
  • Lossless JPEG transformations (Tools/JPEG Transform). Makes it possible to rotate and flip JPEG images without decompression/compression, so without loosing quality.
  • Much faster image scrolling. Scrolling is now also more precise (subpixel accuracy).
  • Improved zooming control (separate control over zooming and shrinking).
  • Possibility do filter out .info file and non-image files.
  • Added tooltypes support (FULLSCREEN and BROWSER).
  • Added BROWSER CLI param. The default window now doesn't have it enabled.
  • Improved Thumbnailer module:
    • Suffix different than .info can be specified.
    • Suffix can now also be replaced instead of only added.
    • When scaling image aspect doesn't have to be preserved.

  • Zooming image in/out with mouse wheel.
  • Added default values to some sliders. Try to doubleclick on knob to set to default position (in balance, levels and probably some others too).
  • Added mask shape selection to median filter.
  • Added "border mode" to resize operator. Works the same way as in ImageFX.
  • Now it's also possible to delete directories (a bit limited though. You can't unprotect files for example).
  • Improved filerequester when saving. Uses path and filename of currently loaded image, and automaticaly replaces extension to match selected save format.
