It's now more than two years since I started coding SketchBlock. The first release being on the 30th January 2012, coding starting in the atumn of 2011.
In that time the project has grown somewhat and now is spread across 2.5Mb of source code, more than 83000 lines in more than 280 files! Written in 3 languages (C Python and Arexx). (not counting the perl scripts used for build ing the documentation!. There are now more than 150 ARexx commands.
This version introduces palette support, a much waited for feature. Keep watching this space for more great stuff!

| MorphOS: OWB 1.21 released |
|
|
| .: Posted: AndreasM @ 11.12.2013 - 09:37 |
The Odyssey Web Browser released in the Version 1.21 for MorphOS.
Changes:
Core:
- Updated to WebKit r155188 (October 2013) : big changes (and thus regressions 
happened in many parts of WebKit since previous Odyssey release (clipboard,
drag'n'drop, network, javascript, inspector, c++0x requirements, ...). They
should hopefully all be addressed.
- Updated to the new Webinspector layout.
- Fixed the layout of the FTP listing, so that the rows don't use all the
available vertical space.
- Fixed a crash with self-disposing <select> objects (e.g priority cycle
in MLDonkey Web interface).
- Localstorage databases (conf/localstorage/#?.localstorage) were not released at
exit, which prevented from deleting them manually.
- Disabled non functional HTML5 MediaSource (it should help with some non-working
YouTube links in HTML5 mode).
- Fixed a bug with the "view source code" function that would sometimes just show
a blank view.
- The mimetype actions would not always be triggered properly in some cases (mainly
because of redirections or content-disposition header). The response URL (or
content-disposition filename if available) is now used when extension matching is needed.
- Added more common mimetype extensions in mimetype default configuration.
- Fixed a potential race condition at webview closing.
GUI:
- Contextual cursor was sometimes not reset to normal cursor when leaving
the webview area.
- Added proxy support in network prefs section.
- If webinspector is enabled, webinspector button is now also shown in
navigation toolbar.
- Added "TopSites" feature, showing most recently visited sites thumbnails. This
page can be accessed from "topsites://" URL. Feel free to make suggestions about
this new option. 
- Ambient deficons are now shown in file input controls (MorphOS 3.4+ required).
- Ambient deficons are now shown in download manager lists (MorphOS 3.4+ required).
- Select all the text in the search string when searching for text in a page.
- Close google and history suggestion popup lists when the text is fully erased.
- Added a "start downloads automatically" option, which allows to skip the
file requester step.
- Added a status icon to indicate if userscripts are running on a given page.
The bubble help on this icon also shows which userscripts are actually running.
- In bookmarks window, quicklinks favicons and URL are now displayed, to make
it easier to create and identify title-less quick links.
- Added support for multiple selection with file input elements.
- Show FTP URL as window/tab title, instead of a blank title.
- In image views, show the image filename instead of "unnamed title".
- Implemented HTML5 ColorChooser dialog, using MUI Colorwheel.
- Added a filename popup gadget for mimetype viewer.
- Added a new page URL option (defaults to topsites://).
- Also show column number in javascript error/warning messages.
Media player:
- Updated to ffmpeg from 27.11.2013.
- Enabled support for VP9 codec.
- Audio-only media could sometimes report a null duration : in practice,
it fixes a hard crash with Facebook chat audio notifications.
- Fixed a 32bits overflow with audio-only media: the visible effect was
that the player would stop updating time controls at 2:32.
- Added more sanity checks in ffmpeg support.
Network:
- Reimplemented HTTP authentication to be more compliant. It should also
fix a crash that happened when cancelling the authentication requester in
some cases.
- Added support for multipart contents.
- Fixed potential crashes with data: URI handling.
- Fixed an illegal memory access that would sometimes happen at exit, when FTP was used.
Spellchecker:
- Misspelled words are now underlined in red instead of black.
Scripts:
- Updated YouTube_Fullscreen_Fix.js: fullscreen mode should work again. It also replaces
all youtube links in right column so that the page is reloaded when clicking them, allowing
the script to be executed again.

Dear Amiga fans of Putty Squad
Further to our previous statement about Putty Squad for the Amiga, we're pleased to bring you an update on where we are with the project.
We have provided the source code and mastering files to members of the Amiga community who are hard at work on them.
The objective is to produce an ADF file which will be available to download from our website this side of Christmas to to allow the game to be played on the Amiga 1200 or on Amiga emulators. We intend to allow the game to be written to a floppy disk so that people who still have a traditional old Amiga with floppy disk will also be able to enjoy the game.
We are doing everything that we can to make this happen but as you can appreciate it is not entirely in our control how quickly this is achieved. However, please be assured that our objective is to give the game back to the Amiga community, for free, as soon as possible.
Sincerely
John Twiddy

The Accelerator Card ACA-500 for the Amiga 500 can you now Preoprder at the Onlineshop from Vesalia.
The ACA-500 comes with licences for the most important Kickstart versions, i.e. 1.3 and 3.1. (Kickstarts images can be loaded from Flash-ROM or Compact Flash card.) Kickstart 1.3 allows you to run old diskette programs that are not compatible with newer Kickstart versions, while Kickstart 3.1 is the best choice for more current, hard disk based software.
The Compact Flash slots allow booting from CF card or mounting PC-formatted cards for easy and convenient data transfer. For example, you can boot the system from an Amiga-formatted CF card in one slot and then copy ADF images from a PC-formatted CF card in the other slot. The FAT95 file system to read/write PC-formatted cards is included in the Flash-ROM, so you don't even have to install additional software. (Hotplugging is not supported.)
In case the 68EC000 CPU and 2 MB of memory are not enough, you can easily expand the ACA-500 by adding an accelerator card like the ACA-1220, ACA-1231 or ACA-1232 card, and you'll instantly have a 020/030-based system with plenty of RAM!
Features:
68EC000-10 clocked at 14 MHz (i.e. double A500 clock)
2 MB of physical RAM, entirely available for applications (minus 512 KB if MapROM is used)
external expansion, no need to open the A500
two Compact Flash card slots (each one of them bootable and able to read/write Amiga or PC formatted cards)
trapdoor memory expansions up to 1.8 MB FastMem still work (including RTC)
ChipMem expansions still work
custom expansion port for local hardware (14 MHz 16-bit, double Zorro speed)
clock port for hardware expansions, e.g. for Silversurfer or Catweasel Mk2
optionally expandable by adding an ACA-1220 / ACA-1231 / ACA-1232 card
licensed Kickstart ROM images 1.3 and 3.1 included in Flash-ROM
FAT95 file system also included in Flash-ROM
full WHDload compatibility incl. Quit key! |

WHDLoad wurde in der Version 17.2 veröffentlicht.
Changes:
- fix: cancelling directory preload (in the splash window pressing
Esc or changing a option forcing restart) could cause memory
list corruption
- new: support for Zeus68k pseudo vbr added, allows to quit by key
similar like a moved vector base, but only on interrupts not
on exceptions
- new: on AGA machines all color registers are read from the custom
chips and written to the dump file
- fix: WHDLoadCD32 works again with resload_DiskLoad, was broken in
version 17.1 (issue #2633)
- chg: utility ITD can now read files larger than 4 GiB (e.g. on
SFS\2) and write to larger devices using TD64
- chg: alignment for patch lists (resload_Patch/Seg) is now verified
by WHDLoad to avoid problems on 68000/10
- chg: the check for valid custom.aud*ptr introduced in version 17.1
can now be enabled via the new option ChkAudPt/S
- fix: on Kickstart 2.0 (V37) option NoMemReverse/S is now always
active to avoid problems which could lead to freezing during
Preload or other memory allocations
- chg: memory allocations improved if NoMemReverse/S is active, now
these will succeed also if memory below BaseMemSize is free
by trying to allocate until memory is above
- fix: preload progress bar fixed on Kickstart 2.0 (V37), was using
a V39 only utility.library function
- new: added IF/ELSE/ENDIF conditional blocks to patch lists to
simplify the handling of patches depending on ButtonWait/S and
Custom1-5/N options (resload_Patch/Seg)
- chg: detection of HRTmon builtin WinUAE improved to support if MMU
protection is enabled with WHDLoad (CFOU!)
- chg: options NTSC/PAL can be set global and local now, where the
local one (CLI/Tooltype) will overwrite the global one
(configuration file S:WHDLoad.prefs)
- new: WHDLoad now sets the screen mode in HRTmon to the video mode
specified for the installed program, with that HRTmon will
always uses the same video mode (PAL/NTSC) as WHDLoad, for
correct operation at least HRTmon version 2.35 is required
- chg: audio.device is only opened when present in execs device list,
this saves some memory if it isn't initilized already
- chg: install script template now supports also the diskimage
device by Fredrik Wikstrom (Psygore)
- chg: option FullChip/S can also set globally now
- new: support for interrupt vector redirect feature of ACA500 on
68000 added
- chg: added a kludge to preserve the largest free memory block until
PreLoad in situations where multiple small free blocks are
available to increase the likelihood of being able to cache a
large disk image
WHDLoad is designed for easy installation of programs to a harddisk (demos, games, ...) which kill the operating system. To install a program, a so called "Slave" must be written. The Slave is the interface between the program and WHDLoad, and co-ordinates the reading and writing of files.
Because of the simple interface and the example sources, it will be easy for anybody with knowledge about the Amiga and programming to install nearly any program on harddisk.
Features of WHDLoad
- startable via CLI or Workbench
- memory protection using MMU (if available)
- absolutely clear return to the OS (depends on the Slave)
- possibility to use "disk images" and/or usual files
- variable chip-memory size for the installed program from $2000 up to $200000
- unlimited fast-memory size for the installed program
- intelligent allocation of chip-memory, partial absolute and partial independent
- caching of files and disk images on startup and dynamically on runtime (LRU)
- automatic decrunching of files and disk images using XPK
- automatic decrunching of files if the Slave supports it (RNC/IMP/TPWM/CRM)
- emulation of MOVE SR,ea from User-Mode on 68010+
- emulation of unsupported integer-instructions on 68060
- advanced debugging support (memory dump, register dump, file access logging, logging of custom register accesses)
- Enforcer/Cyberguard and VMM proof as long as option NoVBRMove/S is not used
WHDLoad has been tested on the following machines
- A1200 BlizzardIV 030/50/50 2 MiB Chip 16 MiB Fast AGA Kick 39.106
- A2000 GVP 030/25/25 1 MiB Chip 1+4 MiB Fast ECS Kick 37.175
- A4000 CS 060/50 2 MiB Chip 16 MiB Fast CV64 Kick 40.068
- A4000 CSPPC 060/50 2 MiB Chip 144 MiB Fast CV64 Kick 40.068
- x86 Win2k WinUAE 0.8.21r1
- x86 AmigaXL
- and many others...

Hello everybody!
RetroPlanet write:
We are happy to announce that the new second issue of RETRO PLANET (issue #2 - December 2013), is out now.
52 full color pages plus a cover disk for Commodore Amiga as a Christmas gift on this issue!
The magazine is focused on Amiga of course but it includes topics about other computers and consoles as well.
On our second issue we feature a special review on Gunlord -a killer game for the Sega Dreamcast-, an in depth review of AmigaOne X-1000, a special article about Level 9 -the legendary text adventures software company- plus another one about Ultimate Play The Game (for the 8 bit maniacs out there). There is also an article featuring a different point of view about the Commodore's fall plus the first of an article series about the present and the future of Amiga. You can read the usual news and updates and of course many more reviews and articles. An Amiga market guide is also featured.
The magazine comes out every three months -four issues a year-.
It is written in Greek language however we are planning to promote it online as well with some special exclusive articles in English so stay tuned. To give a start in this we have uploaded our English Blog here: http://amigaplanet.wordpress.com/
We already have online an English section on our forum here:
