The wizard.library is requzired und therefore I recommend to download all files via the iBatch-website under the title link.
Example for AmigaOS 4 or Winodws: Unpack the archive and start the programm "slideshow" in directory SSBuilder/Example.
Quickstart for your slideshow:
0) Possibly install wizard.library
1) Unpack the archive and start the programm "addslideshow-plugin" in directory SSBuilder/SlideshowBuilder
2) Choose your directory of pictures (e.g. SSBuilder/Example)
3) In listview choose e.g. "staticshow"
4) Choose your solution, e.g. 640x480
5) Choose your destination system(s)
6) Confirm the requester with OK
7) Go to the destination directory and start the Slideshow-progamm

Retrospect: Jeri Ellsworth's "Amiga on a Chip"-project
In a clip on Youtube, Jeri Ellsworth presented her (not working any longer) "Amiga on a Chip"-prototype which similar to other projects emulates the customchips of the Amiga in a FPGA to make possible a remake of the computer.
The project is from the year 2005 and apparently was meant as successor of the C64 DTV. The interested producer canceled because of the low demand for such a toy. (cg) (Translation: dr)

MorphOS: Lua meets ARexx
Grzegorz Kraszewski's ipc.module is a new MorphOS-specific extension for his port of the scripting language Lua. The MorphOS port, which just reached version 0.5, is highly customized one and very well integrated with the operating system.
The purpose of ipc.module is to interface Lua with ARexx ports in applications. Sending ARexx commands and receiving results in Lua scripts is now very easy.
A proof of concept included to the archive is a Lua version of "love.rx" script from TVPaint. It may be executed with exactly the same result as the original one's, but a bit faster. It also shows that legacy 68k applications may be scripted in Lua as well as PPC native ones. (snx)

SMBMounter 0.2
Robert Cranley's SMBMounter is a commodity with a clear user-interface for mounting and unmounting network drives.
Version 0.2 was tested under AmigaOS 3.9 and 4.1. The author wants to know if the under MorphOS the tool works without any problems.
New features include:
- User-definable font settings
- Passwords are now stored encrypted and are only displayed as they are entered
- Support for filesystem charset translation via SMBFS
- New "automount" feature to mount shares as soon as SMBMounter starts (very useful for WBStartup use)
- User/password prompt for Quickmount shares, and as an option in normal shares
- "Unmount all" option added to Project menu
- Improved error handling and requester information
