Database: MUIbase 2.10
Steffen Gutmann has published an update of his database MUIbase. Changes in version 2.10:
  • New function SETBGPEN for setting the background color of attributes
  • Several new pre-defined constants PEN_* useful for SETBGPEN
  • New function 'mainWindowTitle' for computing the title of the main window
  • Drag and drop of a record from a virtual list onto a reference attribute for setting the reference to the dropped record
  • Allow dropping of icons onto text fields that support filenames. This sets the contents to the pathname of the dropped icon (Amiga).
  • Warn user when changing a read-only project
  • Use native MorphOS-classes instead of NList and TextEditor. MUIbase stills uses BetterString instead of Textinput.
  • The Windows setup executable now containes all necessary GTK+ libraries
  • Better support of copy & paste on Mac OS X
  • Several bug fixes

Die MUIbase-distribution includes ports for AmigaOS 3, AmigaOS 4 and MorphOS. An port for AROS will follow. (cg) (Translation: dr)

AmigaOS 4: Web-Browser NetSurf 2.8
NetSurf is a fast browser which was originally written for RiscOS. It can be used with 17 MB memory and supports among others HTML 4.01, XHTML 1.0 and CSS 2.1. The changes in version 2.8 are listed in the Changelog.

Release notes for this AmigaOS 4 build:
  • DataTypes content handler now used for JPEG and PNG images on the 4.0 (static) build
  • Low-memory version of parserutils.library included in the archive, for people wishing to reduce memory requirements
  • MNG and WebP internal decoders no longer compiled in. Please install appropriate datatypes for WebP and (limited) MNG support
  • The file Resource/mimetypes can be used to specify applications to run plug-in content (to use, right-click plug-in area and select "launch in external application"). It also links DataTypes, MIME types and DefIcons, so if something isn't working as expected it might be related to this file
  • Please note the new DPI setting in prefs. Some people reported particulary small text on certain websites with the previous release. Setting DPI correctly fixes this. If you use a widescreen monitor you may need to set "option_widescreen:1" in Resources/Options

OnyxSoft: BackUp 1.71 and DECH 1.50
The developers group OnyxSoft has updated two of their programs: BackUp and DECH.

BackUp 1.71

An average copying speed in kB or MB/s has been added to Daniel 'Deniil' Westerberg's backup tool. It will show up after finishing. It's mostly interesting when you make the first complete backup, since all time is considered, not just during actual copying.

Please note that if you transfer more than 2.5 TB in one go, the speed calculator won't cope.

DECH 1.50

Deniil's E-Compiler Handler (which works for make, gcc or whatever too) is a graphical compiler aid. Changes:
  • More descriptive gadget names
  • Editable gadget names
  • Ctrl-C in the console is sent to the executed program instead of eaten by DECH itself
  • Added datetime and bold to compile and run output to clearly mark where it starts when scrolling
  • Added a window sleepy pointer when compiling
  • The compiler priority wasn't properly loaded from prefs
  • Fixed some layout issues when using larger fonts

AmigaOS 4: integrated development environment CodeBench 0.23
Simon "Rigo" Archer has released a new beta version of his integrated development environment CodeBench (screenshot). Codebench 0.23 requires AmigaOS 4.1 Update 1, but Update 3 is highly recommended for use with Codebench.

The free edition available right now comes in two flavours: One for use with the AmigaOS 4 SDK, one for users of the commercial programming language Hollywood.

Changes in version 0.23:
  • When loading a project by double-clicking the project icon, the loaded project was not internally assigned properly. This led to DSI errors when trying to use the menus. Thanks to Paul E. Blodel for the report.
  • When selecting a directory of files to be added to the project, the files were added with a root path, rather than in a sub-directory. This would lead to the files being saved into the wrong place, and could potentially over-write an existing file with the wrong contents.
  • When switching files, if a file that was not part of the project was made current, the project list still showed the previous file as selected. Fixed
  • The enabling/disabling of the "Compiler" buttons has now been moved into each plugin. This should allow a much greater degree of acuracy in determining just what options should be available.
  • Now only shows the public screen name in the titlebar when on a custom screen.
  • Added a couple more keyboard descriptions in the "Key Bindings" editor for keys that do not print a glyph.

Changes in AmigaOS4SDK.ccplugin 5.1:
  • API changes so bumped to V5

Changes in Hollywood.ccplugin 5.1:
  • Fixed a problem with loading the dictionary and the description was actually the prototype. Reported by Paul E. Bloedel.
  • Added functionality to set the "compiler" buttons as required.
  • Any errors or warnings are cleared now when running the script just like when building the script.
  • Fixed a few more subtle operational issues.
  • API changes so bumped to V5.
