Nick, XXXXX XXX XXXXX XXX XXXX X XXX. XXXX X XXX XXXXX XXXX. PS. Cleared by CACIU (Commodore Amiga Central Intelligence Unit) 🙂 Pelle Braendgaard Aqua Multimedia, Cardiff, UK
Andrew, It is actually easier and cheaper in many cases to do most of the asset creation and prototyping on the Amiga than on the PC. The Amiga has plenty of cheap and easy to use software available for just that. It is quite easy to port it over to…
Development still seems to be going on, on both Linux and Mach. Linux only works with the ram disk so far, and I'm not sure how far they've come with Mach. (In case anyone doesn't know: Mach is Carnegie Mellons freely distributable distributed Posix compatible operating system. Last week the…

#HELP – .z uncompression
Message #34647
I got som text files of the ftp site ftp.funet.fi. They have the extension .z (that is a lowercase z). At first I tried using my trusty uncompress (used for .Z files), but it didn't work. I then changed the lowercase 'z' to capital and retried, it now acknowledged the…
There is one for Amigados 3.1. Well it will handle anims anyway. I will have to try it out on a brushanim. Pelle Braendgaard Aqua Multimedia, Cardiff, UK

Message #98325
Whats the news on Emplant. Is it working? Can I buy it in the UK? Does it support third party graphic boards such as Retina? Pelle Braendgaard Aqua Multimedia, Cardiff, UK
Propably not (sulk) Pelle Braendgaard B Squared Multimedia, Cardiff

Does anyone know if the TCP/IP software supports SLIP or PPP for serial access? I know that if it supports all SANA-II devices it should be able to, but does it? Pelle Braendgaard B Squared Multimedia, Cardiff
"Transpond" is local slang for transatlantic, trans pond . 😉 Pelle Braendgaard B Squared Multimedia, Cardiff
Thanks for your reply Mark. I know ProPage doesn't actually do it. What I meant was that if it had that (I know PPage will never be able to do it), then I wouldn't have any excuses to convert anymore. I am getting more and more tempted everyday anyway though.…
Do you know if it's possible to get a transpond subscribtion to Britain for it? Pelle Braendgaard B Squared Multimedia, Cardiff
Qs about HP4 driver.
Message #52647
Could some one tell me about the HP4 driver for PS. Is it a traditional Generate the page in memory and dump to printer approach, or does it actually support the builtin Compugraphic fonts. If not. It would be ideal with such a driver for the next version. Including downloadable…
You are right that the main part of KS/WB 3.x is the AGA/datatype support. There are however quite a few neat features, that aren't as obvious such as: 1. Picture backgrounds on WB. Any IFF/Datatype picture can be used as a background. 2. Faster intuition 3. Intuition and Graphics.library support…
Thanks Hurkhard! Pelle Braendgaard B Squared Multimedia, Cardiff
