Another interesting utility found on Aminet/archives.aros-exec is RMan a converter "man pages" (short for "manual pages") to many formats, an extensive online documentation used by almost all GNU/Linux distributions.
This version 3.3 is able to convert man pages to:
- ASCII -- plain text
- TkMan -- Tk format wrapped with commands
- Tk -- just emit list of text-tags pairs
- Sections -- simple plain text reformat
- Roff -- primitive analogue of roff
- HTML -- HTML 4.0 standard document
- XML -- DocBook XML support by by Aaron Hawley
- MIME -- generates MIME compliant to RFC 1563
- LaTeX -- typical LaTeX
- LaTeX2e -- rest same as old LaTeX
- RTF -- Rich Text Format (RTF) could use more work
- pod -- Perl 5 pod, plain old documentation format
- AmigaGuide -- AmigaGuide support by Chris Young
If I'm missing something, if you want you can report me other apps to be included in AROS One, any of your requests will be well received, of course I will also create the icons in AROS One style.
-
Another useful application found on Aminet, it is an RTF to HTML5 converter, the application is called RTF2HTML and you will find it installed in the Office folder of AROS One x86.
-
On archives.aros-exec I found TCPPrefs, I think it's a duplicate of Network Prefs, in any case I included it in AROS One
-
I've noticed that the latest version of DiskImageGUI v52.34 present on archives.aros doesn't show the "icons" menu images, so to restore DiskImageGUI on the new AROS One x86, replace "only" the executable with DiskImageGUI v52.32 present on the deadwood Nightly Build.
-
Small change on the WHD_Menu graphic menu so that the GUI is smaller and square in shape.
-
Another interesting utility present both on Aminet and archives.aros-exec, it is ViewISO a TrueType font viewer that will allow Dopus4 to display TTF Fonts with one click.
For TTF fonts I also created a Datatypes Descriptor and a custom def_TTF.info icon, the tool used in the Tooltypes is always "ViewISO" which will not show the font but will trigger the filerequester.
I add that unfortunately does not exist on AROS x86 a command for Dopus4 or Wanderer that allows you to show the BitmapFont icons
-
That's a nice feature. I like that.
-
Yes thanks, now with the section dedicated to AROS One I can create thematic Thred so as not to disperse info, reports and advice from users, I also hope that some user (http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=97987&page=5) who follows my distribution on other forums come to visit me here where he can find some more info by the developers.
-
Tried 4KLive live interface a small, fast software synthesizer that lets you create and record the music you produce.
Also this software has been included on AROS One x86
-
RunInDOSBox allows double-clicked MS-DOS programs to be automatically redirected
to run inside DOSBox, interesting and convenient application that could not miss on AROS One.
In the README (https://aminet.net/package/misc/emu/RunInDOSBox) the developer of RunInDOSBox said that on AROS it could not work well, to me instead it seemed that everything works perfectly, i enclose video that shows the operation of RunInDOSBox:

Gtuner is a Guitar Tuner for Amigoid Systems, Ahi and Mui Based, it's my first AHI-Toy.
-
AmiNote simple utility for keeping notes, it creates a save file in the same directory as the binary.
You will find this application in the Office folder, also for this application I have created AROS One style icons.
-
Installed on AROS One some tools for Developers, among these Murks, an integrated development environment that tilizes the same project file format of AmiDevCpp, so the exchange of data is possible.
The installation went well, tomorrow I'll try to write a few lines or compile some source code in "C", of course this is not my field but I need to see if everything works well because the GUI is quite friendly.
On this occasion I changed the graphics with Menu Icons in strictly AROS One style.
-
Joerg Renkert had announced it and here is the new cross-platform version of ModExplorer, i would say more and more nice and functional, I installed it and tested it successfully on AROS One.
-
Made a small test as a beginner programmer on Murks, a greeting from AROS One :D
-
I always thought MurksIDE was an excellent idea for an IDE for AROS. It's a shame seeing applications start and then not advance from the plateau. I wonder if there is a way to add syntax highlighting.
-

Great :) You made your first step in programming. Happy development!

Well, I worked on MurksIDE as actually my introduction to AROS. From perspective, I would use an already available editor with syntax highlighting as a basis and add the UI/tooling around it. I think this is how MorphOS did with their IDE.
-
An internal IDE for AROS seems like an interesting project. Syntax highlighting would be nice but many external code editors already suffice.
If we had an IDE inside AROS x86 that could compile system components like datatypes and MultiView and such I would be very satisfied. :)
-
@deadwood
I noticed that Murks v0.5.4 works much better.
Murks v06.0 doesn't compile my script, the window that shows the compilation doesn't have the close tab, moreover when you click on Build project a second main.c* project is generated
-
Might be, I don't really remember - it was years ago that I was doing last work in it. :-\
-
I had no luck with Murks
(https://i.postimg.cc/x8fVk1Bk/murks.png)
I can see files listed on the left but wont show any text if i click on them,
Syntax highlighting would be killer on Murks.
Gcc integrated to Murks? can i just run the MurksIDE because gcc already installed in my icaros system
What MurksIDE can do is what i am trying to do atm, well also good to have another alternative.
ooh top icons needs some love..
After running MurksIDE i kind of think just adding Syntax highlighting than integrate latest or current gcc than we have amazing app..
-
I wanted to try the icaros 2,3 distribution. When switching to the classic workbench theme, the system refresh becomes very heavy. Is there any fix or information about this issue?
-
FYI, latest Murks codes are on sourceforge still: https://sourceforge.net/p/murks-ide/code/HEAD/tree/
-
I had no luck with Murks
I can see files listed on the left but wont show any text if i click on them,
As said above Murks v06.0 doesn't work well, Murks v0.5.4 works better, as you can see from my screenshot the right tense can be seen well :)

I tried to compile a source of a program and it worked perfectly with Murks 0.5.4, while on Murks 0.6.0 I got errors, as well as difficulties in using it.
I attach a small video showing the compilation of a utility called DirTree.
I tried with other sources and some of them didn't work, probably the procedure I used for DirTree is not enough.
https://youtu.be/4yQihxOXr_g
-
Could you link to the source for DirTree ?
And link to the thread about font datatype. I lost it.

Thanks. I'll take a look just for fun this evening. Time for me to ease my way back into AROS. A little at a time. :)

LOL. I have to start compiling again before I forget how. :)
-
AMIGASYSTEM
I downloaded both. The DirTree source looks very simple. I'll try to compile it later this evening. I'll try Murks also just to compare.
The font datatype looks interesting. I might look into that also.
-
Watch out Murks, if you don't have the right files in the Development folder it doesn't work, moreover in the S folder there are all the assignments and you don't need a script to start Murks.
If you have problems I can send you my Developent folder with Murks included, all working :)
-
AMIGASYSTEM
I was a little rusty, but it started coming back to me. :)
There were two errors in the code for DirTree. After I corrected them then I could compile at the commanline using gcc using:
gcc dirtree.c -o dirtree
Then I copied it to the C directory and it functioned the same as the original executable included with the source files.
Here are the two corrections: In the struct at the beginning for "Global" on line 96 the value was LONG * but the function expects IPTR * so...
IPTR opts[NOPTS];
Lastly on line 335 the DateTime flag can either be set or not set but it can't be NULL apparently. It only accepts value "DTF_SUBST" so...
//g->dt.dat_Flags = NULL;
g->dt.dat_Flags = DTF_SUBST;
The nice part of DirTree is that you can direct the output to a text file such as: "dirtree system:devs nohead >file.log"
Here is the code file attached.

AMIGASYSTEM
After I made the two slight corrections I was able to drop the c file in my Build System for Icaros 64bit along with the mmakefile. It compiled and worked fine for 64bit as well.
Possibly the older version of Murks didn't detect any errors, but the newer version did find errors. I suppose if it doesn't compile at the commandline it won't work in Murks either.
Here is the mmakefile that I used:

Welocome to AROS dev.
I suppose that will suffice as "Hello World". ;)
-
Let's not exaggerate, I don't know anything about programming languages, I just did the magic copy-paste, at 67 years old it's too late to learn programming also because I already have many commitments, health permitting!

You took the first step. That's good. :)
Five years ago I knew nothing about C programming and I especially knew nothing about programming for AROS or Amiga!
My first program was a copy-paste "Hello AROS World" just like yours. There are programmers like Deadwood willing to help.
Keep choosing small programs to build your skills. After a while you'll see much improvement. Then take on bigger projects.
-
Installed on AROS One x86 also the ModeExplorerCE "Classic version" indicated more for OS3 systems on Real AMiGA, with the Emulation you can safely use even the standard version.
-
Thanks to the new version of Yannick, now ZuneARC recognizes all common formats even without extension, the new ZuneARC v1.6 with new config has been included in the first release of AROS One x86 v1.7, already full of new Updates.
-
I tried out the previos version of AROS One x86 just recently. I was very impressed. Nice work. :)
-
Thanks miker, I'm glad you tried AROS One, the fact that users like it pushes to do better and better within the limits of their experience.
AROS needs modernization and functionality, in my small way I try to represent it at best, the too much similarity of AROS to Amiga in my opinion made it an old system, that's why I wanted to create a different AROS One graphic line so that users recognize it as AROS and not as an Amiga simulation.
Of course after using it they will notice the strong resemblance to Amiga, it is not the icons that make you recognize a system, but its functionality.
-
AMIGASYSTEM
Thank you for your hard work. What you and others are doing with these distros is keeping the AROS spirit alive. :)
I liked using AROS One x86 because it has many features. But mostly because it opens and closes quickly in my Virtual Machine. When I'm doing an iterative process of editing, compiling, testing and editing, compiling, testing it's good to be able to open and close the test platform as quickly as possible.
I will certainly use it for testing some new applications. :)

Daysleeper, handy application that turns off the Computer after a predetermined time, in the archive including the source.
-
Thanks to Miker's DTConv is now possible on AROS One x86 to convert images in JPG, PNG, IFF and GIF formats directly from Dopus4 with a simple click.
As you can see on Dopus4 I've created three different buttons, a "Purple" button for direct conversion with a predefined file name, a second "Blue" button to save with a file name of our choice, and a third "Red" button that allows you to save the image with a file name and a path of your choice.
-
Knowledge of AROS x86 software:
On AROS x86 we have more choices about Images conversion, even if old "ConviertMe" is a good fast and simple Application to make conversions and not only.

Miker's Kitty-Celestial lands on AROS One 68k/x86, Background, Pointer and Zune Themes can interchange, so Kitty like other Backgrounds, can be matched on all 24 AROS One Themes.

Translation:
This is the ultimate package of pointers for AROS One x86.
(Not compatible with AROS X86) Should that be 68k ?
How is my Italian ? ;)
-
Perfect your Italian, I'm back home now, sorry I forgot to translate (first I write in Italian and then I translate), thanks anyway, always always kind!
If you happen to draw a nice pointer I'll be happy to put it on AROS One x86, I need to understand why the Pointer prefs of AROS 68k does not handle PNG images :o

PNG images would be nice. Pointer display and types was a topic a few years ago when Michal Schultz was working on some graphics drivers for AROS 68k. It seems to be part of the AROS graphics system and may not be easy to figure out.
There are some nice pointers that came with AIAB (Amiga In A Box) from many years ago. I use one on my Amiga 1200.
-
I know AIAB, on my WinUAE nothing is missing, there are both AIAB and the updated version with AfA OS, HERE (https://www.amiganews.it/forum/viewtopic.php?f=39&t=20569&sid=4aabd30ef81506050a5780797183f5c8) you can see some of my RTG OS.
Regarding AIAB and Pointers, it can handle only IFF images as OS 3.9 does, AROS x86 handles PNG very well, AROS 68k instead strangely behaves like OS3 even if the Pointer Prefs program is the same !
-
Installed the new version of ModExplorer NG v3.81 on AROS One x86, now works much better, later the new version will be installed also on AROS One 68k !
-
Create Dual-PNG with AROS One x86 and AROS One 68k, Icon Editor, an easy and professional way to create Duasl-PNG icons from two PNG images.

-
Replaced one of the 24 Themes available on AROS One x86/68k, of course the Themes deleted from the Default Themes folder for AROS One are always available through the system App "Appearance".
-
Created other two Descriptors on AROS x86 for the automatic recognition of FLI and FLC Animation files, both have been associated to "MPlayer", of course also AROS One 68k will have these new descriptors where only the Player will change (FFPlay).
I enclose a small demo video and a screenshot (You have to download the video, so it will be available in a few seconds):

Try this new icon on AROS One x86 & AROS One 68k.
Of course you have PeterK's Icon Library so it won't matter.
I'm getting close to understanding why PNG Icons don't show correctly on AROS 68k.
It can display either a real Classic Glow Icon or a fake OS35 Glow Icon with ARGB Data Chunks.
So it's not like AROS 68k can't display ARGB Icon Data. It can but not from real PNG Icons. I wonder why?
Those new colorful icons are being displayed on my AROS Vanilla 68k. They look as nice as the originals. ;)
-
On AROS One 68k with Peterk's Icon.library your icon looks bad, see screenshot, I could ask Peter why !
-
Surprise, I tried your icon on my AfA One that also uses PeterK's icon.library, your icon shows up wrong as it happened on AROS One 68k, but if I try to copy it in RAM, your icon is corrected and now it shows up fine on ARS One 68k too, see screenshot ;D
Attach correct icon
-
ModExplorerNG V3.82, new Stable version, in this release when ModExplorer was iconified, ARexx-scripts didn't open new songs in some cases.
-
Surprise, I tried your icon on my AfA One that also uses PeterK's icon.library, your icon shows up wrong as it happened on AROS One 68k, but if I try to copy it in RAM, your icon is corrected and now it shows up fine on ARS One 68k too, see screenshot ;D
Attach correct icon
It's a "fake" OS3.5 Classic Icon with ARGB Data. It's not PNG.
It's for use on AROS 68k using AROS Icon Library.

An Italian AMiGA Paper Magazine named Passione Amiga (https://www.passioneamiga.it/product-category/riviste/) did a review on my AROS One 68k and AROS One x86 Distributions.
-
Very nice! You are forcing me to learn Italian. ;)
Short article but easy enough to read despite my poor language skills. Even worse when I try to read French or German. LOL.
Always good things to say about you. You're making AROS Great Again and perhaps fun again.
-

Italian is not difficult, even if in Italy English is the most known language, as a boy I studied French and German, English I studied with Amiga and AROS :)
Spanish and Portuguese are the languages most similar to Italian, especially the regions of Southern Italy that have many words in common with Spanish and Portuguese in their dialects.
Always good things to say about you. You're making AROS Great Again and perhaps fun again.
Thanks also to you developers who allow me to update it and make it as beautiful and functional as possible.

Miker, PeterK ha distribuito ieri la nuova versione di icon.library che aggiunge il "Tricky Drag°n" che permette il trascinamento delle icone in veri colori RGB e con dissolvenza morbida del canale alfa ai bordi, al momento è uscita solo la versione OS3 RTG, presto ci sarà anche una versione AROS 68k.

Molto bene! I'll check it out. Sounds interesting. ;)
In addition to understanding some conversational French, German and Italian I speak and read/write Castellano Spanish and I understand some Catalan. It's similar to Provencal and many words are very similar to Italian.

On AROS One x86 new Games PipeWalker, OpenGL Pipe Connecting Game by Cavemann
This is a puzzle game in which you need to combine the components into
a single circuit: connect all computers to a network server, bring water
to the taps, etc.
1. Supported command line parameters.
-help: help
-version: show information about version
-id: start level with specified id (number from 1 to 99999999)
-wrap: set wrap mode (0: disable, 1: enable (default))
-size: set level map size (small, normal (default), big or extra)
Usage example:
pipewalker -id=1234 -wrap=0 -size=big
2. Themes support.
The game supports various themes. Themes are stored as a set of textures
in PNG file. To add a new theme - copy the PNG file to the application
data directory:
Linux/Unix - usually /usr/local/share/pipewalker
MS Windows - C:Program FilesPipeWalkerdata
The theme name is the name of the PNG file.
-
Installed on AROS One x86 TTEngine, TrueType text rendering engine, in the archive in addition to the sources there are some example executables that show the Fonts with various features.
-
Installed and ready to use Free Pascal on AROS One x86
-
Thanks to Miker now AROS One x86 can swap its own DualPNG Icons, a feature that was missing on AROS One x86 ;)
-
Nice :)
-
From the good ALB42 here is the version compiled a special version by AmiTube for i386 AROS ABIv0 and ARM AROS.
-
Today with AmiTube I have tried to download and play with CDXLPlay the videos in the format CDXL OCS, CDXL AGA ;)
-
Included in AROS One x86 ZapHod, an excellent and fast Decimal Editor
-
Installed on AROS One x86 the new version of AmiTube 0.7, I enclose a short video that shows how Amitube can download and play videos in MPEG format and in the original format Youtube.
Downloaded videos remain on HD to review them later in Off-Line, There is also the possibility of sharing a Video that everyone can see if they use the menu item "Remote Shared".

As a super amateur today I've been delighted to modify and compile a source of a useful Application found on AROS Archive to be inserted on AROS One x86.
The application is called "DiskValid GUI" for AROS, the change is motivated by the fact that DiskValid GUI used the font Topaz 8, font too small, so I replaced it with Arial 16 and then I had to enlarge the Tab to avoid graphical artifacts.
All went well because I did not find any error in the compilation, thanks to Miker for his teachings!

Very well done!
I'm learning to be more methodical and to solve problems quicker based on teachings from deadwood.
I'm just sharing the knowledge. ;)

Successfully tested RNOTunes, I would say a beautiful and useful Application for those who listen to music on AROS, thanks to Salvo and jPV.
-
Reset the preferences now the tracks are in chronological order!
-
Added on the new version of AROS One x86 RNOPublisher, easy-to-use PDF publishing program.
-
Also RNOArchive will be present in the new version of AROS One x86, RNOArchive as well as UnARC on AROS x86 cannot unpack some formats because of the lack of "XAD Clients".
No problem instead for RNOArchive 68k on AROS One 68k, where thanks to an OS version of XADMaster.library all the necessary "XAD Clients" are available to unpack all the most common formats of other platforms.
-
is the program has some flaws to be improved but overall came out well, is very fast compaction and unpacking and works well in multitasking :)
-
No it doesn't have defects, it's the XADMaster.library that is incomplete on AROS x86 and AROS 68k, in fact as said above on AROS 68k I use the "XADMaster.library" AROS and its "XAD Clients" native OS3 and RNOArchive unpack all formats.
As said must be improved the "XADMaster.library" and added the missing "XAD Clients" !
---- Italiano -----
No non ha difetti, è la XADMaster.library che è incompleta su AROS x86 e AROS 68k, infatti come detto sopra su AROS 68k utilizzo la "XADMaster.library" AROS e i suoi "XAD Clients" nativi OS3 e RNOArchive scomapatta tutti i formati.
Come detto deve essere migliorata la "XADMaster.library" e aggiunti i "XAD Clients" mancanti !
-
On AROS One there is also RNOEffects, an application cross-platform developed by jPV that lets you add effects to your images:
Features
- Around 30 different image processing effects including drop shadows,
elliptic crop, and other effects which would need several steps on other
similar programs
- Drawing options for brushes, text, lines, ellipses, boxes, and arrows
- Batch converter and image joiner tools
- All effects can be applied to images in a freely selectable order in a
batch conversion or image joining process
- Unlimited amount of images can be joined as a single image
- Can save multiple images to a single PDF file
- ARexx support
-
Updated AROS One x86 with the new stable version of "InstallerLG", a reimplementation of the 'Installer' utility included with AmigaOS as of version 2.1. InstallerLG aims to be fully compatible with the original as described in the V44.10 documentation. Most resource limitations found in the Commodore implementation are gone, and the GUI has been replaced by a MUI/Zune based one.
-
InstallerLG is now available also on the Archives :)

Thanks, VIM v8.2.4291 doesn't work well when exiting the program it generates a Guru, on my AROS One x86 is installed the last working version v8.2 that doesn't generate any Guru.
-
If you want to contact the uploader, he is here: https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?action=profile;u=373. He is also on Discord AROS channel.
-
Thanks, i don't use Discord, aGGreSSor follows the forum and uses AROS x86, he probably knows the problem !
-
I tried VIM under Icaros 2.1.1 which has June 2016 system files and there is no crash at exit. On the other hand I get crash with with local linux-hosted ABIv0 build. Can you check older versions of your distribution if Vim crashe at exit for you?
Another question: when installing InstallerLG did buttons always worked (in the installer) or there where screens when clicking on buttons wasn't working and you had to use keyboard enter to "click" a button?
-
My Distributions have a newer core than IcarOS 2.1, with all versions of AROS One I get the crash on exit.
The library that is loaded by VIM on exit is intuition.library, it could be the culprit.
On all my VIM Distributions it works fine up to version 8.2.25
Regarding InstallerLG I didn't find that problem, I should check better, if you know some software installation that created you the problem I could do some tests on my distributions.
-
I located the problem in Vim and it might be indeed something added to Vin in recent versions.
About InstallerLG - I have the described problem with the Installer of InstallerLG itself.
-

Ok
About InstallerLG - I have the described problem with the Installer of InstallerLG itself.
I don't have any problem, i attach a small video where i download IntallerLG with OWB, unzip it in Ram and then I install it on AROS One without any problem.

Ok, thanks. I'll look for causes in my setup then.
-
I located the problem in Vim and it might be indeed something added to Vin in recent versions.
There's a new version in the Aminet upload queue now. In that one there's no _win(App). It's a blind fix, hopefully it will work. If not, it's at least a slightly newer version of a crashing Vim :)
-
The 8.2.4370 from Aminet no longer crashes at exit for me :)
-
Yes today's version of Aminet is a new version that replaces the previous one with error, both "egVim" and "gVim" works fine.
Automatic installation of "Vim" with InstallerLG has been successfully tested.
-
@AMIGASYSTEM, @deadwood
Excellent.
-
Inserted in the section Games there AROS One x86 a new card game "Hle Poker Card".
-
Create new DulPNG Icons "Butons" for AmiStart, the icons of different colors will be matched and inserted in the scripts of the various Themes. In practice, at each theme change, the Start button will also change with the one that best matches the background color.
-
Made a small change to the design, now the Start icon can be changed with a Click, in this way you can have the possibility to choose your own color match.
-
Timer: Small software Multiplatform made with Hollywood and RapaGui that through an algorithm will calculate the difference in speed between different computers.
The lowest numerical result will indicate the fastest Computer, moreover the GUI will also show CPU and Operating System used.

The Italian developer Bevilacqua has released for free all his games, among them is also included the BOH version for AROS that has been kindly made available for my next version of AROS One v1.7.
HERE (https://retream.itch.io/) all the you can find all the "native OS3" games made by Simone Bevilacqua now available for free, anyone who download and like the games can make a donation of any kind and in any way for the Ukraine.
-
Improved the management of AmiStart, now you can change the bar from "Smaill" to "Big" with a simple click without restarting the system, see screenshot, even the colored buttons of AmiStartSmall can be replaced on the fly with a click.
-
I enclose a link to a small video showing the above on how to change shape icons and icon mode on AmiStart:

Updated AROS One x86/68k with the new UnRAR 6.11 released today on Aminet, successfully tested with Dopus4 and ZuneARC, all RAR archives are supported even the latest versions.
-
Updated AROS One x86 with DOSBox 0.74, thanks to Paolone for having taken it from icarOS.
In the occasion I have reconfigured DOSBox 0.74, now all MS-DOS executables can be opened directly from DOSBox 0.74 with a click via "RunInDOSBox", I attach a small video that shows how Tomb Raider works that can be run in Fullscreen or WindowsMode with a click from its Icon.

-
Updated AmiTube with the newest version with lots of changes, the program now contains a download queue to start more than one conversation/download process that are processed one after the other.
AmiTube also includes the typical Amiga AREXX interface that includes commands to search and start a conversion process and play videos.
The AROS x86 version of AmiTube unfortunately can't use the "Use URL Player" option due to MPlayer being out of date.
-
As mentioned on another thread, on AROS One x86/68k i have created the Dopus-Emergency. In practice, in case of failure to boot the operating system, accessing "AROS Early Startup Control", through "Boot With No Startup-sequence" you can run Dopus4 by simply typing "Dopus".
I attach a small tutorial video that shows how Dopus-Emergency works

An Italian user HERE (https://www.hwupgrade.it/forum/showthread.php?t=2949364) asked me if with AROS you can do the "TRI-BOOT", someone has already done this experience?
In the occasion I have reviewed and improved the audio associations on AROS One x86, attach small video:
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1a0SN_80U9LsWNe5XH-2ep7Yetqik67qN/view
-
What does the user understand by "TRI-BOOT"?
-
He wants to install on an HardDisk 3 Operating Systems, Windows + Linux + AROS.
I have installed in DualBoot Windows + AROS, but I have not yet tried with 3 different systems, in my opinion it should work important to leave a third partition "RAW" that AROS will recognize as its HD.
-
Yes, I think such setup should be possible.
-
Created Italian Catalog for WgetGUI, by default on AROS One is set to English language !
-
I've created two small scripts that allow you to recover "all" files deleted from the operating system by a simple click on the appropriate icon on any SFS or PFS formatted Hardisk.
The script as soon as executed will open Dopus4 with the path of the "deleted" files set, ready to facilitate copying the deleted files or to execute them.
All files that have been deleted several times will also be recovered, each of them having a different nomenclature.
The script settings recover files from the system partition, but with a small change volume name can be used for any other location, the script works on all AROS x86/68k, AMIGA OS3/OS4 and MOS Operating Systems that use these two Filesystems.
I enclose a small video tutorial that shows the above:
https://youtu.be/jXssBKLm_To
-
Among the many software updates, also updated the Commodities, Utilities and DOS-Tools software park, the long complete list of all the updates will be listed with the release of the new AROS One x86 v1.7
-
Tested Scalos also on AROS One x86, it seems to go well even if there is always the problem of Dual-PNG icons not supported pinamente, some slowness in opening windows.
Probably if everything will work well also on AROS One x86 Scalos will be integrated as second option, but this will happen later in the next versions of AROS One x86.
-
New Undelete software installed on AROS One x86, these are "Undelete-PFS" and "Undelete-SFS", compiled by me based on the sources "E" of software "UndElEtE_AFS" by Ralph Debusmann, who I thank for making them available.
I have successfully compiled the same source also for AROS One 68k.
Also the executables in Italian language will be available, see screenshot:
-
Ball Breaker: New game installed on AROS One x86, it is a clone of Arkanoid to play both in Windows mode and Fullscreen, works well in VESA mode.
-
Installed on AROS One the latest version of "No More Toxic Man" fina v1.0 of the good Juan Carlos Herran Martin released in the last few hours.
No More Toxic Man is a Point And Click Adventure Game with old comic or photo novel style with photo real characters in real backgrounds and pixel art in 2D
-
For a better consultation of the "DOS-Tools" or DOS Commands, on AROS One x86 and on AROS One 68k i created the appropriate icons, once clicked the icon the application will show the parameters related to the Command.
-
It is enriched the Development folder on AROS One x86, installed and successfully tested "Portable" for the compilation of sources in the Amiga E Language.
-
Yet another new by Cavemann Game installed on AROS One x86, this is "Atomiks" a faithful remake of and a tribute to Atomix
-
After two days of hard work I have made visible all the documentation in TXT, GUIDE, PFD and HTML included in the software folders with REAL icons, see screenshot.
Previously I had deleted all the old icons present on AROS One x86, so that the system assigns the right DualPNG icon and the right tool configured in the "Def" Icon present in the system.
This choice is motivated by the fact that some user not seeing the icons could have thought to delete all the documentation!
-
Thanks to ALBs the new version 1.0 of AmiTube is included in the new version of AROS One x86, everything works perfectly only the direct video display via link not supported by MPlayer AROS version.
As for other applications create Dual-PNG Icons with tool association for Catalogs, Readme, File Guide and PDF files
Changes AmiTube v1.0:
- History for search
- AROS64 ABIv11 bit version
- MorphOS Version
- Amiga OS4 Version
- Download more Amiga-like audio only formats: mp3 and 8svx
- Dual PNG Icons by AmigaSystem
- Download Queue
- Improved AutoPlay
- AREXX interface
- Dutch Translation
-
Updated AROS One x86 with the new version of SilkRAW 1.3.
SilkRAW is a program that allows you to work with RAW files generated by digital
SLR cameras, acting as an interface to the dcRAW program written by Dave Coffin.
Features include:
- Built-in thumbnail exports, individual RAW files or groups, with metadata
extraction and rotation capabilities
- 23 dcRAW options supported
- Batch processing of RAW files, with saving in TIFF, PPM, JPG, PNG, ILBM
SilkRAW requires dcRAW and the RapaGUI plugin.
This program makes RAW files processing much simplest for more users (pleasant
as silk – this explain the name of this program).
SilkRAW is released as freeware and can be distributed in every non-commercial
form.
-
Added other icons catalogs, if I have escaped some Nation signal them and will be promptly created!
-
Installed on AROS One x86 the ICO.datatypes, now you can manage the images contained in the native PC-Windows icons and convert them in Dual-PNG Amiga/AROS icons
-
Among the Graphic Demos included on AROS One x86 you will also find "GL-Excess", a Demo in OpenGL useful to test your Video Card, with VESA the Demo "GL-Excess" turns out to be very slow !
-
Thanks to the good Magorium and his program WBxCLI now on Wander it is possible to associate native Amiga CDXL videos with an Icon.
The Player Associated with the Icon is CDXPlay, this is a DOS Command that could not work via Icon, now instead thanks to WBxCLI this is possible, see screenshot
On the def_CDXL.info I set a Video size 640x480 but if desired the resolution can be changed.
-
MP3Info is now present in the "Music" section of AROS One x86, the program supports the Standard TAGs normally used on Windows, some minor inaccuracy in the "Track" TAB where some strange characters are noticed, other flaw it does not store the "Music Genre", otherwise everything works fine.
-
This is the new "GRUB" background you will find in the new version 1.7 of AROS One x86
-
Thanks to the good Magorium and his program WBxCLI, it is now possible to associate an icon "WildMIDI Player" to play from Wandere a "MIDI" file
WildMIDI Player conesente to stop the music and exit the Shell !
In the Screenshot you can see all types of audio files that are associated with on Wandere, each audio format has associated the best existing Player on AROS x86.
-
Installed on AROS One x86 the new version 2.2 of "Crono", generator of printable calendars
Features:
- Create calendars in an A4 page, choosing the number of months in each page, formatted as grids or lists
- Customizable by adding a photo, choosing a font and color of paper, pen and Sunday days
- 26 languages supported
- Choice between Sunday or Monday as first day of the week
- Marking particular days as holidays
- Output to PDF format
-
Grows the Directory "CLI-Tools" a folder containing all utilities that work natively from CLI.
In each folder if it exists you will find the Readme and the various data that compose the package, for these tools I have created special Icon that once Clicked will show only the info and paramenters for how to use the application.
-
New Card Game entered on AROS One x86, it is "The Siete Y Media" by the good Juan Carlos.
It is a Spanish Game but also famous in Italy under the name of "Sette e Mezzo" (7 ½), i do not know if it is known in other places in the World.
-
Finally here we are even a few days and AROS One v1.7 will be destroyed.
To tested the New ISO successfully, now I just need to create the USB image that allows to Install AROS One x86 conveniently from a PenDrive on PC or be used as "AROS Live USB" System
In the screenshot the new configuration of ZuneARC, where the ability to extract/delete a single file from LHA archives is active.
-
Finally here we are even a few days and AROS One v1.7 will be destroyed
How do you wish to destroy it..
Stab, shoot, or the good ol' cowboy classic of three sticks of TNT?
:)
-
No Glinx it was the translator who tried to destroy it :D ;D
I had written Distributed :o
Thank you for pointing out the translation error !
-
Did you know that in addition to being able to download and view Videos, AmiTube can also extract and convert music from Videos into the MP3 or 8VSX formats ?
I have created a small video showing how AmiTube can download Videos or extract Audio in the MP3 format.
The video is in a small Zip archived file, in a few seconds you download it and then you can view it in very good quality.

If I am not wrong, there was a "please do not redistribute" clause in the first release of AmiTube. Is it still the same, or can it be included in our distributions, now?
have a nice weekend
-
I have been cleared, sent you a PM.
-
Recreated and improved some Icons, some I had made years ago with less experience ;)
-
Updated Theme Manager (Wanderer Skin Prefs) to this new version (kindly provided by Paolone) removed the "Use" Tab which had no function.
Also now on Theme Manager there are images on the buttons created by me that have been placed in the "TBImages" path (AISS image archive).
In the system I have also updated/improved some icons, the last one for the application "ScreenGrabber" which you see posizionada on Wanderer.
In this regard, I noticed that monti do not know the "hide" function of "ScreenGrabber" which is used not to show the GUI "ScreenGrabber" on the grabbed Images.
-
Given the long installation time of AROS One which now includes almost all AROS software, I decided on AROS One v1.8 to delete all the "AISS" images, they are 8,916 files, leaving only those used by the AROS Applications, if some new program will request them I will insert only those needed by the application.
Other operation done to reduce the number of files was to compress (Archive Zip) all source files, this has already been done on AROS One 1.7
-
The applications that use it have a default option, therefore they also work without this package ;)
-
Yes but they don't show the Images, on AROS there are few that ask for them, on OS3 on the other hand there are more software that use them.
Meanwhile Theme Manager doesn't use the system ones, and I placed them in the AISS path, then there are other AROS applications that don't have the images on the Tabs, see PSI, ACPITool, Find, Format, Install AROS, I have to find out if they use them, where they look for them.
--- Italiano ---
Si ma non mostrano le Immagini, su AROS sono poche a chiederle, su OS3 invece ci sono più software che le utilizzano.
Intanto Theme Manager non usa quelle di sistema, e le ho posizionate nel percorso AISS, poi ci sono altre applicazioni AROS che non hanno le immagini sui Tab, vedi PSI, ACPITool, Find, Format, Install AROS, devo scoprire se le usano, dove cercano.
-
Installed on AROS One "Tools Development Dos" with included "PDF Book" and "C Programming TOOLS", to Create Multiplatform Retro DOS Video Games.
Tools Development Dos, was created by good and friendly Italian developer Bertinetto Bartolomeo Davide.
On AROS One with "deepl" I translated and added Readme and filenames in English, in the future I will see to translate also the manual in PDF, moreover for the whole package I created DualPNG icons.
You can download the AROS version of "Tools Development Dos" in the attached link, or wait for an AROS One update that will include the updated version of DOSBox used by "Tools Development Dos" and the deletion of native OS3 files not needed on AROS.
http://www.bertinettobartolomeodavide.it/programmazione/ALLEGROH/GiochiDosRetro/index.html
-
or wait for an AROS One update
That is a blast from the past for sure :). When do you project to release an update for AROS One?
-
As soon as deadwood will provide the stable version with some new fixes, maybe with the one related to video cards !
In the meantime if you want something in advance, you can ask for it HERE (https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?topic=928.0), thread dedicated to user-requested updates
While HERE (https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?topic=775.0) inquiries about problems encountered on AROS One or its Apps
-
Also on AROS One x86 i changed the "LUA" path, due to thematic issues, I had placed the "Lua" package in the "Development" Path along with the entire Software Development Package, but then I noticed that applications using Lua, could not work to those who did not install the Development Package.
Now the "Lua" package is located in the SYS:Tools path.
-
Attached in the section Games of AROS One x86 the Game Puzzle Game AmiBrixx
-
Released a new version of AmiTube 1.1b Multiplatform which adds the "Fancy List" in the search list, basically you can see all the thumbnails and all the information about the searched videos.
I had reported to the developer some problems found on "AmiTube v1.1", which were immediately solved by good ALB42
Searching and downloading videos from Youtube even of high quality with AmiTube is incredibly easy, try it to believe.
-
For those who don't like the Windows style of AmiStart, here is the BoigIconBar configured for AROS One x86/68k.
- Added 5 Menu Items
- Added 9 Middle Skins with 9 different colors
- Added 9 Right Skins with 9 different colors
- Added 9 Left Skins with 9 different colors
Skins will have to be replaced manually, why BoigIconBar Prefs does not include the Skin change function, also BoigIconBar cannot be closed by a script, to change the skin on the fly (it can be done only through Function keys LShift + ESC)
Unfortunately the fonts cannot be changed either, too small the one set Arial 9 !
-
Now on AROS One x86 you will be able to replace AmiStart with BoingIconBar with one click and vice versa, for cabio you will be required to reboot the system.
Create new DualPNG icons for AmiStart and BoingIconBar and for Skins preference scripts.
-
Found a way to change the Skin to BoingIconBar, I have created scripts that allow you to do this but only after a reboot, this is motivated by the fact that "BoingIconBar" cannot be closed from Shell, unless there is a command that I cannot find :)
-
Some Skins Created for BoingIconBar, on AROS One you can set with one click BoingIconBar without background, with minimal background or a Max background, see screenshot .
-
Finalized all scripts for AmiStart and BoingIconBar, also added new icons to differentiate the type of Skins.
In the afternoon starts the build of AROS One v1.8, and in the next days the Distribution of the ISO and USB image.
Regarding AROS One Hosted Windows, as it is not yet complete with Audio and Network it will not be officially distributed, those who want to try it, can request the download link HERE (https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?topic=937.msg11579#new) on the section dedicated to AROS One Hosted Windows.
-
One more game by serk, it is NetBubble, a nice Bubble Shooter game, you will find this game installed on the upcoming AROS One v.1.8, which will include many other new features/updates.
-
Ami-Ingenious, another nice strategy game installed in the next version of AROs One x86 !
-
BubbleTrain "Bubble shooter" is also now installed on AROS One x86.
There are no large games on AROS One x86, these will be installed on AROS One Games x86 (https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?topic=934.0), dedicated entirely to Games.
-
Don Ceferino Hazana, nice Clone of Pang, other game by Serk
-
A few more tests and AROS One v1.8 will be ready for Deployment, in the Screenshot the new Apps ASL.prefs and Reqtools.prefs
-

Very nice work AmigaSystem! I imagine the release date of 1.8 is very close?
-
Yes close enough, I am waiting for the latest news !
-
One more Software Update on AROS One, installed the latest version of Font Tester v1.20 by Of my friend Juan Carlos, who I hope will come here to the forum.
-
Nice. I like the concept of the Font Tester. :)

Here is completed the White configuration of Dopus4, created new Custom icons for Dopus4 in AROS One Style, created the icons and scripts to change on the fly the color of Dopus4, at the moment only White and Grey Standard, if someone likes a particular color he can make the request here !
-
I was not satisfied i recreated the Icons for DOpus4, now more resembling :P
-
Added on "WeatherBar" small info on where to get your City data and where to enter it
-
Looks nice!
-
On AROS One x86 updated RNOArchive to version 1.1
RNOArchive is a graphical archive manager, that can extract, modify and create
archives. Extraction is handled by the XAD system and the program has built-in
support for writing ZIP archives. Writing to other formats relies on separate
Shell commands, and their availability and compatibility in the used system.
Features:
- Reads and extracts all archiving formats supported by the XAD system
- Write/modify support for ZIP and LhA archives
- Batch extraction for multiple archives
- Automatic sub-directory creation for batch extracted archives
- Archive browsing and file viewing
- Filetype editor for configuring file viewers
- Intelligent drag & drop support
- Recursive adding of files/directories
- Create new directories inside archives
- Delete files and directories
- Handles UTF-8 filenames in archiv
-
Created a simple script that will allow to choose Wanderer or Scalos, two special icons will allow the change after a reboot.
Created the first skin for Scalos, for this theme I chose Chrome buttons, basically the same ones I used for the OWB Skin.

I'm trying to take the best care of Icons and Buttons, I occupy whole days to crop images, make them well visible even if small in size, and especially transparencies avoiding underlays that ruin the aesthetics

You are doing a great job on the graphics! I love those icons.
I see an icon in the screenshot for IconClone. There will be a new updated version in the next few days. It will be compiled for x86 & x86-64 & 68k. The code is the same.
Thanks for your efforts. I look forward to using AROS One v1.8
-
I am gradually gaining experience with Icons and replacing the first "less beautiful" or less suitable icons.
If for IconClone you don't like that Icon, I can come up with some other ones, I'll have a look around the Web and see what I find nice to adapt :)
As soon as IconClone is ready I will distribute AROS One v1.8, Scalos will be integrated in version 1.9 or 2.0, it will all depend on the good coexistence between the two Workbenches.
-
On this very hot morning, I created some new icons for IconClone, it was not easy to create them and on the web they were ugly, by making some modifications some of them were used.
I noticed that the style of my AROS One Icons "invented by me" also exist on Androit (Phone), with the difference that mine are animated or have Glow (drawers) ;D

AMIGASYSTEM
I like them. I like the blue & white theme. :)
But I really like the first two one on the left.
That was exactly my concept for Icon Clone but I didn't know how to make the icons. I'd like to use those if I may?
See my attachment.
-
Simplicity and sharpness is always the best choice, I like that icon too, you can take anything you want, as animation I used mirror effect, for OS3 version instead I used classic Glow.

Could you attach a zip file?
-
Yes, you want the "which" icons or the basic image of which !!!
Meanwhile your Icon has been stylized AROS One :)
-
Restored icons for AROS One x86 e AROS One Games, now sharper and reflect the content of the game
-
You are doing a great job on the graphics! I love those icons.
Thanks for your efforts. I look forward to using AROS One v1.8
Very nice work AmigaSystem! I imagine the release date of 1.8 is very close?
As a preview for you and all users of ae.amigalife.org here is the new version of AROS One x86 v1.8
Next will be AROS One x86 USB Image to create a Live Pendrive to install AROS One on PC.
This version of AROS One can also be installed safely on 2 partitions (DH0 and DH1) as provided by InstallAROS, and everything will work the same way from one prefixed path "Development:" and "Extras:)"
Please let me know if you encounter any problems before the official release on my Homepage.

Fantastic news!! Thank you AmigaSystem

Great news!
I look forward to using it. :)
-
AmiTube v1.3, new version that does not add anything new, but only fixes some bugs from version 1.2, found on OS3, OS4 and MOS.
AmiTube v1.2 that you will find on AROS One 1.8 does not include these bugs, but for more security update it with the new version that you can find HERE (https://blog.alb42.de/2022/07/29/amitube-1-3/) on the good ALBs site.
N.B. For those who are not aware, on AROS One v1.8 the "BoingIconBar" includes multiple ToolBars, to change besides the right mouse button, you can use the mouse wheel (first highlight the bar)
-
Congratulations! :)
AROS continues to move forward. Well done!
-
Thanks Glinx, this morning as soon as the news was made here, on Amiganews.it (https://www.amiganews.it/forum/viewtopic.php?t=21242) and on eab.abime.net (http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=111421), it was immediately replicated and published on amiga-news.de (http://www.amiga-news.de/en/news/AN-2022-07-00125-EN.html) and amigafuture (https://www.amigafuture.de/app.php/newsportal/).
All of this gratifies the many efforts of a 68-year-old old man, and perhaps serve to reacquaint some nostalgic user Amigans dreaming of a modern Amiga :)
-
Probably in the next version of AROS One x86/68k there will be drawer icons in White color, useful for those who use dark backgrounds, i attach screenshots showing some the system icon set already created today!
Naturaslly one click will be enough to install or restore the White or Blue icons
-
Those look great. No offense but better than the current ones :P
-
AMIGASYSTEM
I like the new white folders as well. The blue folders are too dark to see the details. Lighter colors are better.
The white folders and presumably any light color allow the fine details to really jump out. Nice! :)
-

amigamia non preoccuparti nessuna offesa, yes the white stands out more the image, but when the backgrounds are clear the Blue or Black has better visibility, in any case having two choices you can please more users, same thing for the BoingIconBar, I wanted to add it on AROS One because some users didn't like Amistart just because it reminded them of Windows :)

Yes true white makes images stand out, but if the images are clear or particular the colors stand out better on blue.
Also the dark icons show best the transparency, the glow, but also the Amiga style Glow, then everyone will choose the one that best crebe and the one that is less annoying to the eye.
The creation of the White icons is taking me so much time, there are so many icons created on AROS One, and many I am recreating because they do not fit White.

AMIGASYSTEM
I like the new white folders as well. The blue folders are too dark to see the details. Lighter colors are better.
The white folders and presumably any light color allow the fine details to really jump out. Nice! :)

Batch processing of icons would be nice. It saves hours of tedious labor. ;)
-
It would be very useful but there are many variations beyond replacing some images, in any case what tool should I use ?
Meanwhile I have already created quite a number of Icons, there is a lot of work still, especially for third party applications !
-
Also today create a part of White icons, some of them are new and I also created them in the standard Blue version of AROS One x86/68k :)

Very nice. They look great. :)

Also the icons of the Emulators section has been completed !

Made a small video showing AROS One x86 booting directly from Scalos (only disabled Wanderer from Startup-sequence).
With Scalos now almost everything works fine and fast, except windows with icons, sure Wandere much faster, however I must say that Scalos has improved significantly

Just hit an unexpected issue with the eee PC install; usb mass-storage devices are not be mounted by dos. This is happening with both USB sticks (SFS and FAT formatted) and USB optical drives (two drives tried, both with CD and DVD). Trident is recognising a mass-storage device is inserted (and correctly identifying when this is a memeory stick) but it looks like usbscsi.device is not being launched propery - I tried opening HDToolbox to see what was being recognise but it was not showing anything except scsi.device, ata.device and ahci.device and became unresponsive for a couple of mintes or so when trying to exit.
Cheers,
Nigel.
P.S. This issue is not present with the 2016 version of the OS.
P.P.S. i'm wondering if Windows screwed up the download and/or DVD burn - I'm going to try a fresh download & install to see if that helps. Edit - this was the case, see below.
-
I don't know what do you mean by USB mounting from DOS?
With AROS One x86 I tested on "ACER ASpire 5920" 2 external USB HDs, one with a FAT32 partition and the other HD with 2 NTFS Partitions, both HDs were mounted automatically by "Trident", see the two screenshots !
Found only "a small problem" on the volume name when from the menu you run "disk information", it was an old problem that seems to have returned, I will make the report to deadwood.
For the installation of AROS One I recommend that you create a Pendrive, that way everything will be fast (Install AROS One in just a few minutes).
To create the Live PenDrive follow the instructions found on the DVD
-
This is the screenshot showing the mounting on AROS One of an External USB HD with 2 NTFS Partitions.
To mount NTFS Partitions or Disks you need to copy "ntfs-handler" to SYS:L
"ntfs-handler" by default is located in the Storage folder !
-
Full re-install completed, all working now. Looks Like Windoes did screw up the original download or DVD burn; no surprise there. Next time I'll try using MorphOS, as it looks like it has an option to burn the ISO straight from the zip archive, thus getting around the 2 GB file limit. Anyway, looking good so far and I'll try an install on the Samsung once I've completed a full system backup.
Cheers,
Nigel.
P.S. thanks for the tip on NTFS partitions - I'll be giving that a go (looks like the handler has moved on somewhat from the 2016 version).

Why is the window title messed up?

We had discussed this before HERE (https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?topic=681.msg6954#msg6954), finding that the culprit was the Muimaster.library.
EDIT:
I confirm the problem is always caused by the muimaster.library, it is solved by using the muimaster.library included in the archive "scalos-builds-20220710"
-
Next time I'll try using MorphOS, as it looks like it has an option to burn the ISO straight from the zip archive, thus getting around the 2 GB file limit.
I always use Windows and never had a problem, of course it is better to unzip the ZIP first, also the burning program can be important. If you have NTFS on Windows you have no problem with the file size.
P.S. thanks for the tip on NTFS partitions - I'll be giving that a go (looks like the handler has moved on somewhat from the 2016 version).
From Storage you have to choose the latest version with name "ntfs3g-handler", and rename it "ntfs-handler", It is not installed because it is being tested, use with caution.
-
Also for the Graphics programs on AROS One, the White drawers Icons version has been finalized, again some icons have been recreated from scratch, this also for the Blue version of the DualPNG icons of AROS One.

Finally got to the bottom of this and it wan't a corrupted download but an odd bios option for the eee PC. Its bios battery back-up is dead and the main battery just died too, so as soon as the power cable is removed the bios resets.
It was refusing to boot from the DVD despite setting it as the first boot device, so on looking around I found an option 'Operating system installed' set to 'Finsihed', so I put this to 'Start' and this allowed the DVD boot and install. However, it seems that if it is set to 'Finished' (which is the default) you can't access any USB storage at all, at least from AROS. With is set to 'Start', USB works. Wierd, especially as there is an entirely separate setting for USB enabled/disabled.

Just booted up on the Samsung n130 (via USB stick) and everthing is looking fine apart from the perrenial issue with the trackpad; For some reason for many years now the driver (i8042.hidd) does not work (not just the n130 either, this was the case with my n145 too). I have to use a very old version (attached); maybe worth putting into Storage for any other Samsung netbook users out there?

Ok thanks for the file, I will report the problem to deadwood for a possible fix
-
I confirm that the Driver "i8042.hidd" "2016" on some PCs makes the Touchpad work well, on my Samsung R730 the Touchpad was not working, now with the 2016 "i8042.hidd" it works perfectly !

Actually the driver is from earlier than 2016 - something like 2012 I think.

Actually the version is the same as the current Driver, both are v1.6, the problem might be due to the complilations that occurred after 2012.

Just hit a very serious problem (at least for me) - ArosPDF crashes. This is both on the Samsung n130 and eee PC; please see the attached screenshot. It's a bit variable; somtimes it's on loading the PDF, other times on closing after the PDF has been displayed.
Cheers,
Nigel.
-
Are you using AROS One? i see a Window Theme not present in my AROS One.
Can you attach a PDF Document that creates that problem so that I will try it on other PCs, it may also be that it is a format PDF not supported by ArosPDF.
-
Yes it is not an Aros One therme, it's an imported Icaros theme (sorry, just happen to like it) but it's definitely Aros One core files. As mentioned, this error also occured on the eee PC with is a new, purely Aros One, install.
Ths PDF is one that works perfectly with the 2016 install but is too big to install and for some reason ArosExec will not even let me put up the ink to it??
I've just tried ArosPDF from 2016 and that gives the same crash on the 1.8 install, so it's somethng deeper in the system than just the ArosPDF program. I'm afriad, for the Samsung at least, I'm gong to be rolling back to the 2016 install as I can't be without a PDF viewer. I'll leave Aros One 1.8 on the eee PC for further testing.
Cheers,
Nigel.
Edit: Just thought of a work-around, at lest until the error (hopefully) gets fixed. I just converted this PDF to PS using pdf2ps and then conerted back to PDF using Ghostscript; ArosPDF can now view. Trying to directly write another PDF from the original using Ghostscript did fail though, so it look slike it is an 'awkward' PDF but as noted it could be viewed in the 2016 distro, so this does seem to be a regression.
P.S. am I just being stupid (quite possibly...) or is Ghostscript not included in the Aros One distribution? I copied the files from Icaros.

OK, this is wierd, the message baord software absolutey refuses to post the link, even if I mangle it by e.g. replacing '/' with '\'???. If you Google for "AQA A-level Physics formula sheet" you should find it...

I am able to confirm. It is the darn immunify that is broken as hell (do they even understand they write shit software).
Unfortunately this happens on occasion, and I have no idea why. Sometimes it seems trigger-happy on certain files but it also happens to get triggered when you paste some assembler or normal program output.
Note that you need to be careful when this happens to you because if you insist and try this a number of times in a row then your access will be blocked (that is besides the captcha crap that you need to go through to unblock your ip address). It can take up to several hours for you to be able to reach the website again but am assuming the immunify software is so stupid to not be able to tell friend from foe that you might end up with a blockage that lasts even longer.

Cheers,

P.S. this Ghostscript port is getting really old; what we really need is a fully working Polybios plugin for Hollywood so we could have some of those nice PDF viewers and Tools coming out of that. From the Polybios docs:
Q: Why doesn't Polybios support the conversion of PDF pages to vector
brushes on AROS?
A: That's because PDFium requires a compiler capable of handling C++11 and
wide characters which is currently unavailable for AROS. But this will
hopefully change in the future so that AROS users can convert PDF pages into
Hollywood brushes too.
So the question is does the current AROS GCC comply with this?
-
Ok thanks for the info about "GS850", about the technical data you mentioned you need to ask the developers!
If you send me the PDF file I can do some tests to see if I can find some solution if there is one !

So the question is does the current AROS GCC comply with this?
For information on what compiler version(s) AROS supports see https://github.com/aros-development-team/AROS (https://github.com/aros-development-team/AROS) (scroll down to the table view)
but tbh I do not quite grasp the requirement... widechars ? as in unicode ? afaik there is a unicode support library available for AROS. Unless, I misunderstood something there.

Updated AROS One x86:
Installed New version of Vim 8.2.4424
-
Also the "White" Folder Icons of the "Music" section have been completed, I would like to remind you that the DualPNG Icons of AROS One x86/68k are 48x47, which is the Standard size, but there are also the larger 64x62 versions which are not included, but which I will be able to include if there are requests, or when with Scalos they can be automatically reduced by the system.
I attach usual screenshot where you can see the two different sizes of the icons:

I have to say I really do like your icons; they are nice, neat and conistent, and a very good size for smaller screens such as on my Samsung and eee PC. Lookng forwards to installng the new set ;D
Cheers,
Nigel.

Thank you although many do not think so, many AROS users but also Amiga "like" the old-fashioned,do not like the order of icons and the order of applications.
Unfortunately, the AROS user is tied to the old Amiga, and anything that is different "modern" does not like, at times I feel like quitting, too much effort being ignored, not even trying them.
It would have been all easier to make icons "the same as OS3" but that to me would have been a big regression !

I agree you need a modern look; unfortunately, most people are influenced more by the 'eye candy' than the actual functionality, so whilst an Amiga OS3 or whaterver look might be nostalgic, it will not encourage those under 40 (or should that be 50?) to try out the system. Do keep going; whilst we hope at some point for a fully modern system (multicore and memory protection) it will need a modern look :) Saying that, to some people a modern look would be like a 'phone with page after page cluttered up with app icons to scroll through, which to me is just plain dumb...

Ah, sorry, didn't ealise this was alredy known. Anyway, I can confirm it's a regressions (at least for some systems) as this was working on my Samsung with my 2016 install.
I've just had to do a reinstall in the eee PC as somehow the boot partition got corrupted, so I think it's just lost an assign somewhere.
Were you aware that IconEditor will not start as it's missing couple of dependencies? Both are avaialble on Aminet (AISS and TheBar with a version >=26.17); AISS also needs an assign (TBIMages:) set to the image draw of the package.
Cheers,
Nigel.
-
assign to TBIMages exists on AROS One (see user-startup), unfortunately I had done some cleanup because the AISS folder was huge and AROS One took so long to install (see AROS One v1.7).
In the "ToolbarImages" I had left only the images used by the various Apps, I missed to test IconEditor, now I will check which images it needs and install the nesessary to make IconEditor work.
Then maybe I can pass you just the nexcessary files without copying the thousands of images in AISS
-
Copied "only" the necessary images in "ToolbarImages" and IconEditor works perfectly !
Regarding TheBar we had found a bug in the newer versions, that is why on AROS One is installed the older but "stable" version which unfortunately is not compatible with IconEditor.

I understand, there certainly are a lot of images in the full AISS distribution. The one IconEditor stops at for me is 'list_checkmark', but there may be others after this of course. I've already got the full AISS on my work: partition so I just pointed the assign to that.

Nations (Local Folders) also have a White DualPNG icon.
-
Quick question - I've started trying out the distro on other computers, ones that did not work with the 2016 version (mainly USB issues), and whilst some are have not changed and some have regressed (did boot at least boot form optical, now don't) others have progressed and work pretty well. Obviously this is due to changes at the core system level, so would you like me to report these experiments here or over on Deadwood's development thread?
Cheers,
Nigel.
-
You can report HERE (https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?topic=775.0) any problems you experience on AROS One, then maybe if these are not dependent on AROS One x86, you will report it to Deadwood.
Keep in mind that AROS One is up-to-date with the latest features and so it may happen that "some old" application does not work or needs to be updated.
Unfortunately, AROS is moving forward and you should not look back otherwise you will be stuck and all the efforts of the developers will be in vain.
Also if you make a comparison with the past AROS now is much more stable and functional if the apps areben developed and updated.
-
By chance I found out that this discussion "AROS One x86 Work In Progress" in 10 months, had more than 10.000 Views, this pushes me to do better and better, although I would have preferred more some participation from visitors 8)

Lookng forwards to installng the new set ;D
We are well on our way still missing many "White" icons for the Applications section, then I should create 2 installers (White Icons/Blue Icons) for automatic change of "all" icons including subfolders which are many !

Nice. I'd like to see how the installer works.
-
Nice. I'd like to see how the installer works.
Normally as Installers happen on OS3, I create the script on OS3 with "InstallerGen" and then the Script will be run on Aros with "InstallerLG".
InstallerLG is compatible with Amiga Installer scripts, once I create a prototype script, with an Editor I add the target folders in the AROS One paths, easier to do than to explain :)
Only problem that might happen is some system icon in use or protected from deletion, we will see !

I picked up the whole GS850 directory from Icaos sys:system.
Besides copying "GS850", did you also do the necessary Assignments in the User-startup or in the Env-Archive\SYS\Packages ?
The link of your PDF document to parse was not working, can you attach a link that works?

For those who don't like icons on Wanderer, installed on AROS One uCommander, simple and functional program to run applications with one click.
To fit it better I had to cover the header of the program because the font was higher than the bar, an update from Serk would be appreciated, maybe in addition to fixing the title bar he would also add the ability to be able to add a background maybe transparent.
I also set the absolute path to the editor (AddNewMenu) in way that it can work even if the "uCommander" folder is moved to another location.

As mentioned, unfortunately I cannot post the link to the formula sheet as the site software rejects it. However, it's not just this PDF - I'm getting issues with other PDFs. Please see the latest error below. This is after setting the stack to 40960000 and processing the file through pdftopd and Ghostscript! To get this PDF Google 'next k9-85 mcw -surveillance-video' and it should be the first link. I'm back at work tomorrow after the summer break, so I'll soon be seeing if this is a more widespread issue with PDFs.
Cheers,
Nigel.
Edit: Just tried one of the Physics exam papers - same problem ArosPDF crashes part way through. I could view it after processing through pdftops and Ghostscript, though. Neverthless, there's clearly some serious issues with the system relating to PDFs which were not present back in the 2016 build.
-
It is very strange that you can't post the link, you could try a link shortener like tinyurl (https://tinyurl.com/app) or use an "Imperlink" like I did for tinyurl.
Possibly you can also take a photograph of the link and post a screenshot.
I tuoi file PDF mi servono per fare i confronti e cercare di capire se esiste un rimedio, visto che nel 2016 funzionavano, inoltre serve per eventuale segnalazione a deadwood.

@ntromans
Note that I haven't read the whole discussion, but the error you are pasting indicates that AROS detected stack override.
Do you launch ArosPDF and then open a pdf file OR do you double-click on a pdf file and open via deficon association?

With the PDFs processed through pdftops & Ghostscript, opening from the ArosPDF appication worked :) So I presume the stack setting is being picked up from the def_ icon rather than the application icon? Very useful to know, thank you!
Unfortunately it still does not help with viewing the orginal PDF; please see below the error log from the exam paper I mentioned above, which was definitely viewable with the 2016 system.

It is not strange it is the stupid imunify front-end software at the hosting side.
We have used a URL shortener two times now.
Possibly you can also take a photograph of the link and post a screenshot.
Or imunify can go take a dump somewhere else....
I have got something better then stupid photographs and shorteners.

@ntromans
If the PDF document is what you see in the screenshot I have found the culprit that creates the Guru, if this is not the document, try replacing the "freetype2.library" library from AROS One (updated) with the one attached here, the stack set for defaul from the def_ icons 400.000

Yes, that's hte one. I'll try replacing the freetype2 library and see how I get on.
Cheers,
Nigel.
Edit: That was a ice bit of detective work, with that version of freetype2.library PDFs are working perfectly! Thank you ;D
P.S. One small observation today, possibly (or not) of interest to the developers: on my Samsung n130 (IntelGMA graphics) with an external monitor attached you have to boot with acpi enabled; if you try to boot with noacpi (as I had set witht the 2016 install to help with powering down quickly using the Samsung's awkward power button) it hangs part way through initialising the system (i.e. before Wanderer is launched). If I get a couple of minutes tomorrow I'll make a note of exactly where it stalls.

Ok for now we use this version until deadwood releases the fixed version.

This problem if not dependent on "AROS One" you need to report it to deadwood, if you can do some testing with deadwood's Reference Distros.
-
Converted to the new White Icons format also folders related to music file types, conversion of folders of other file types will follow.
-
Finished the Office section icons as well, even though some people may not like me or ignore the great work, we proceed without pause to finish the "White" Icons package as soon as possible

Features
--------
BeeBase is well suited for managing structured data with clear semantics that can be organized into tables and fields. It can be regarded as an application development environment where an application designer creates the database structure and user interface, and users of the application
enter and process data on a regular basis.
There are numerous applications for BeeBase including managing addresses, music and movies, photo collections, your family tree, or your income and expense. Some users run their entire business using BeeBase from project planning to creating offers, article and part management, creating bills and invoices, and tracking their finances.
The strength of BeeBase lies in its graphical user interface and its programming capabilities. It allows you to process data in various ways, e.g. automatic calculations upon user input, generation of reports, import and export of data, etc. For example BeeBase can be used for calculating the total amount of income, or the total amount of recorded time on a CD, or to automatically create and print serial letters to your customers.

Restoring the Icons Video folder/tool, also in both Blue and White versions
-
Restoring the Icons Video folder/tool, also in both Blue and White versions
Lookign good :)
Cheers,
Nigel.
-
Thanks ntromans, the restoring continues, now it is the turn of the folders Video section, as soon as the Primary Icons are finished I will move on to the subfolders, they too will have the icon in White.
Great work that took me for many days, finished I will experiment with the two installers that will allow to swap the Blu-White, White-Blue icons.
If I have time and a few requests I will also be able to create an installer to substitute "all icons" both White and Blue to the larger 64x62 size, when Scalos is finished, the 64x62 icons can be resized as desired with "Scalos Prefs" as AfA OS or OS4 does.

Finished the first part of the Icons Tools section, also recreated here the Icons in both Blue and White versions.
We are almost at the end, in the coming days I will test the installer that will replace all the system icons from Blue to White and vice versa, which you will then find on the new AROS One x86 1.9 :)
-
With these last icons I would have finished the creation and restoration of all the "Blue and White" icons of AROS One
-
Nice. I'd like to see how the installer works.
Finished, the installer works perefectly without any problem, all system icons "692 File icons" and "168 Folder Icons" are replaced in seconds.
it was a lot of effort to build the two packages iconew Blue and White, also the positions of windows and contents were memorized, especially the Disk Icons and Folder Icons.
Basically only the color will change everything else will be the same, to see the new icons just refresh Wanderer or reboot the system.
Of course icons or files added later by the user will not be deleted .
N.B This Icons package is compatible with the latest versions of AROS One, for older versions or other distributions manual changes will be needed, everything can be changed to your liking.
@miker
If you want to test the installers I can send them to you in PM
-
AMIGASYSTEM
Yes. I would like to try them. Thanks. :)
-
Created a small video showing how the installer replaces almost a thousand icons in a few seconds, the compressed video weighs cira 10 Mega and is of good quality, to see it only takes a few seconds of downloading:
The installer and the icons are also compatible with OS3, OS4, MOS, of course it is not convenient to install the icons because of the different composition of the OSs and the diversity of the programs, but if the need arose you could replace the affected icons by hand.
Video Tutorial showing how to instal Icons:

-
Yes. I would like to try them. Thanks. :)
I sent you fli installer in PM,, the Script is super simple, the icons are all located in the original path, the script will only bother to make a simple copy
At any time you can change or update the icons in the archive without changing the script

New functions installed on AROS One x86, now the system will recognize ADF and DMS floppies (except NO-DOS floppies), and one click is all it takes to mount or unmount the image files.
Also on AROS One, with Dopus4 the ADF and DMS archives will not only be mounted or unmounted, but also and unpacked, and the data will be available in a normal folder.
-
Small tweak also for Disco Icons to stay in the AROS One style !

Not only that, you will also be able to mount an ISO by simply clicking on the Icon, now I am testing FAT32 Floppy Images (.IMG), as soon as I finish I will make a small video showing how these files will be recognized by Wanderer and mounted with a Click.
AROS One is growing even as some ignore the much work spent on making it more modern, more functional, and without the need for Host systems to work.
OWB for what AROS needs works perfectly, Social can be followed elsewhere on PCs, Phones etc...
-
Even MS-DOS Floppy images now on AROS One x86 can be mounted, simply by clicking on the on Icon, a took a video showing the Mounting of ISO-CD, Floppy ADF, DMS and IMG images, , see screenshot.
Also created two scripts that through an Icon can Unmount CD/DVD and Floppy ADF, DMD and IMG, see screenshot
-
I have read HERE (https://www.amigafrance.com/forums/topic/arosonex86/) on amigafrance.com, some interesting posts dedicated to AROS One, the few reported problems have already been solved in previous versions of AROS One.
If anyone here frequents amigafrance.com, could you inform them of the solved problems and maybe also list all the news of the updated versions of AROS One, or to visit this forum.
-
Installed the PxBlue Theme, given the large original size used by this Thema, i decided to make some small changes resizing everything, of course doing these procedures by hand is very complicated in addition to the time you lose, but in the end you are more than happy.
-
One more Theme, this time inspired by AfA One, as you can see in the screenshot in the Utilities folder in addition to the "Eyect CD/DVD" and "Eyect Floppy" icons, there is a new icon dedicated to the installation of "ntfs-handler".
This icon named Install-NTFS, will rename and copy the "ntfs3g-handler" from the Storage folder to L:ntfs-handler
On AROS One "ntfs-handler" is not installed by default, because if there are also Windows partitions on the Disk, "transparent" ghost icons will be shown which are not nice to see as well as annoying.
That said if you should need it just click on the Install-NTFS icon, then when you no longer need ntfs-handler, you can delete it manually.
-
Created a small video showing the new version 1.3 of AmiTube, in the video you can see the download of the video in the original format and then also how to extract music from the video in MP3 version.
https://youtu.be/kCK5Bk1mihI
-
In addition to all Icons, customized AROS One style also all system images ;)
-
Updated Murks IDE to new version 0.6.1 on AROS One x86, updated and fixed the 5 Buttonsets, on all Buttonsets new Buttons were added which includes the new version of Murks.
-
Added on the new AROS One the game "SuperMarioWar" :)
-
For those who like dark backgrounds, great match between the "Retrofunk" Thema and the new White DualPNG icons of AROS One :)
-
Fixed the "AAEDT" program used to download the list and applications from http://archives.aros-exec.org
Now "AAEDT" works fine, basically by mistake I had deleted the Wireless.prefs file from the Env-Archive
-
Added on the new AROS One the game "Beret".
-
I am creating a User's Manual for AROS One, probably it will be in PDF, Doc, AmigaGuide and Htm Formats.
The Manuals will be in two languages English "Translated" and Italian, then maybe if someone would like to translate it into their own language or improve my English Translated, I will be happy with the cooperation, i attach small draft
-
Lots of great progress you are making. AROS One 1.9 coming up soon I presume? :D
-
Thanks amigamia, actually there is a lot of work behind AROS One, a lot of painstaking testing done file by file.
I started from a Nightly Build and slowly updated it with care and testing every thing added, then the rest was done by the developers with their updates.
AROS One 1.9 could be ready, of course the software updates are not lacking and especially the thousand new icons also in White version that make AROS One even more beautiful.
The Manual is complete, there are no images, I preferred to attach Video Links that are easier to understand, then maybe if I missed something you will point it out to me.
This is the Menu of the Amiga Guide version, it also works well with the Windows version Viewer, see screenshot !
-
Introduced in the next version of AROS One v1.9 ii AROS One Manuals in Guide, PDF, HTM and DOC formats.
-
Created a video with the preview of AROS One 1.9, highlighted at the end of installation, the change of system icons performed through an installer from icon apprpriate, the whole a thousand icons replaced in a few seconds.

I also report in this section some tests carried out these days with JanusUAE on AROS One x86
I created a Video Tutorial for "JanusUAE/WinUAE" showing how to initialize (with File System FFS, SFS or PFS), partition and format a PenDrive on Amiga OS, the procedure is identical if you want to do it on SD, HD even if external USB.
In the video you can see the creation of 2 partitions HD0 and HD1, and after the reboot the formatting and copying of the operating system.
If desired, the partitions can be left empty to later install the OS on the Amiga or Emulator side.
The Tutorial continues with mounting the Pendrive on AROS One x86, done this with the JanusUAE emulator included on AROS One I booted the Operating System installed on the Pendrive, both partitions were well managed JanusUAE, which is very fast and functional.
I attach Video Tutorial link:
https://youtu.be/6MGzOz-JSWg
Also successfully tested a Pendriver with two partitions with filesystem SFS and AROS One 68k installed, AROS 68k runs quite fast, there is only the annoying problem of the double pointer, also the Pointer moves slowly and jerkily.

Created a proptotype of Icons in Classic Amiga style, creating a thousand of these icons would be a big effort for my old eyes, I would have to reduce all thematic images and adapt them in "transparency" on the small "height" measure too low.
These icons communque could be used standard without extra images, leaving only the animation and maybe adding the Glow effect, in this case no extra work is required.
-
Going traditional, I like it! :)
I especially like the icons on the right. They're even named after me!
-
I am attaching 2 Icons that you can use it for all the folders in your system, one is with Glow, the other without Glow, then maybe take a nice screenshot so we can see how they look, using your name on the icon was just luck ;D
-
Successfully installed UHCTools on AROS one x86, there will probably also be an AROS x86 version of UHC-GUI, in which case you will be able to download archives from numerous repositories with one click :)

Hello Amigasystem !
Thanx a lot yet for all the work you do for us !
So then the fact is i go receive an old pc which will be followed by a nvidia 9500 et a rtl8139 for gfx and internet.
The fact is your distro seems top but is there any way to update from 1.8 to 1.9 when the release will be done ?
Thanx a lot yet !
-
yogib33r thank you for choosing AROS One, on AROS One 1.9, in addition to software updates, there are also many changes and improvements on the configuration of many applications, so if I create an installer I might miss something.
Updating AROS One is very quick and easy if you use a Pendrive to install AROS One, these are the steps:
- Start AROS One v1.8
- Quickly format the system disk, if the second partition exists, you can choose to format it or not touch it
- Reboot your PC with the AROS One v1.9 Live Pendrive.
- Do a normal installation of AROS One
As you may have observed AROS One despite including so much software "unpacked and ready to use", installs in minutes if you use a Live Pendrive.
-
Hello hello :)
Ok thanx a lot :)
Regards.
-
Added Giana's Return Game to AROS One, also created new DualPNG icons
-
Entered on AROS One x86 another nice Platform, it is Gilbert !
-
Installed on AROS One the new version 0.2 of TexMIO program, a small Application that allows you to write text and save it as PDF, TexMIO can also import text files and save them as PDF.
TexMIO is developedto in Hollywood and is Multiplatform (OS3, OS4, MOS and AROS x86), according to Italian developer Bertinetto Bartolomeo Davide, TexMIO is in embryonic stage, and soon it will become a real Wordprocessor.

New feature for AROS One x86, for those who do not like the Shell Gray, I have created two variations that allow you to have a White or Black Shell, see screenshot.
To do all this just click on an icon, of course the standard Shell of the system will always be available in the original color and nothing has been changed.

Are you using microsoft truetype fonts with your distribution? Odyssey web-browser looks so much better with it.
-
You can see from the screenshot the fonts used, in the AROS One v1.8 Distribution, unintentionally I deleted the OWB config.
As you see from the screenshot the fonts are clearly visible, by the way on AROS One there are new skins with buttons in the style of Chrome, Firefox and others

If you install truetype fonts package you do not have to configure anything. Odyssey web-browser detects that automatic.

nikos, on OWB the truetype fonts installed automatically, to do this however I had to delete OWB.config
By doing this though I also delete the media settings that I have on OWB, now I'll see how I can fix that, thanks
-
Solved nikos, basically I took the settings from my AROS One v1.7, on that version I had your fonts and then the automatic setting.
This way I got back the Multimedia settings and other preferences as well, you can see them in this old video of mine.
By the way, have you tried AmiTube? other quality software for AROS.

Yes, AmiTube is very nice. Perfect for AROS :)
-
Fixed the color of the Mini Icons (Details mosdality window), so that they are clearly visible with any dark or light background :)
-
On AROS One x86 besides AmiTube, even with OWB you can download Youtube Videos in many Audio and Video Formats.
Basically it is site named "GenYoutube", to download a video just search the name to have the various formats that can be downloaded listed, see screenshot.
"GenYoutube" has been bookmarked on OWB ready to be clicked. :)
-
Nice :)
I download AROS one now
-
The icons are very nice!
Good to see an update on icons on AROS :)
-
nikos I am glad you tried AROS One, there are users who judge it without trying it, not imagining how much work has been done.
Too bad it is not advertised on the forums, maybe the graphics and functionality could bring more users closer on AROS, pittosto always post screenshots of outdated AROS or basic Build.
-
I not really tried it yet. Just had a quick look. I will come back with input when I have more time to play with it :)
I guess sunday.

Testing RNOTune on AROS One x86, in my distribution for convenience I set the Music Files path to EXTRAS/MusicFile.
As shown in the video, the newly opened Request File will show the EXTRAS/MusicFile path, and all music of "any supported format" will be available to be played in the RNOTune PlayList.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSHBxMKNDAg
-
Built the ISO of AROS One v1.9, in addition to the various updates I also restored the Libs and Fonts icons, the new AROS One will be released as soon as final RNOTunes and some other softwar is available.
-
Small Poll, which do you think are the prettiest icons to use by default on AROS One x86/68k, the Blue ones or the White ones, see screenshot; of course all icons are interchangeable in seconds with a Click, in case you would like to change all Icons from Blue to White or vice versa.
-
Both look good,
Are you able to print through background, like a glass tile?
-
Can you, take a comprehensive screenshot so that I understand, thank you, also I didn't quite understand if you are referring to the background or the icons.
-
SuperTux 1 and SuperTux 2 will be featured in the games section of the new AROS One v1.9

Installed on AROS One the new version of PortablE r6 (07.11.2022)
Portabl E is the recreation of AmigaE from scratch, while AmigaE only worked on AmigaOS3, Portabl E
also works on AmigaOS4, AROS, MorphOS, as well as even Linux & Windows!

This morning "Image2PDF" v1.1, a useful tool for converting images to PDF was released on Aminet, this Application developed in Hollywood had been distributed only for OS3, OS4 and MOS.
Seeing the lack of this tool on AROS x86, in the morning I kindly asked the developer Bernd Assenmacher if he could create a version also for AROS x86.
Punctually in the evening Bernd sent me a copy of a new version 1.2 with the AROS x86 version included for inclusion on AROS One x86.
Also in the morning I createdand sent to Bernd, DualPNG icons for all platforms.

"Image2PDF" 1.2 Distributed on Aminet and Aros Archive, includes my package of DualPNG Multiplatform Icons for "Image2PDF" which are found to be corrupt, you will find the Icons in perfect condition in the next "Image2PDF" v1.3.
The cause of the corruption was due to the developer's OS3 system which included an Icon.library by PeterK that was not compatible with RTG systems and DualPNG, OS4 and MOS Icons.
He has now eliminated the Icon corruption problem thanks to the correct Icon.library I sent, for those who are not aware, PeterK's Icon package includes numerous Icon.libraries, each with a different feature based on the operating systems used, including Aros 68k.

For the upcoming AROS One x86 v2.0 the first update it is the game LazSokoban.
On game i have restored the graphical part by by replacing a background and some objects, I have also recolored some parts of the background and replaced the character with AROS One logo, see screenshot.

New more beautiful and more stable version of LazSokoban, now it is also possible to change the Skin, the archive includes 3 Skins, plus 2 created by me for AROS One.
There are many Skins for LazSokoban on the web, but you need to adapt them for the AROS (Filename and Graphic Type) version.

Created a new Skin for LazSokoban (See Screenshot), also created a Script that allows you to choose and change the Skin on the fly (see screenshot).
In the Standard verison of LazSokoban the Skin had to be changed by editing the configuration files by hand !

Here are the first AROS One DualPNG Icons in AfA One style, finished today the Sector Icons Games Folders, size 64x64 and 50x50, for the small icons I increased the size a bit otherwise given the shaping, the 48x48 size apparently looked smaller than the 48x48 Icons of the Applications.

Another localization for Italian users of AROS, at the moment I am working on the Italian translation of ZunePaint, you can see a part already translated in the screenshot, I hope to finish the translation in the day.
-
(https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=774.0;attach=3967;image)
Finished the Italian Translation of ZunePaint that you will find in the next version of AROS One, it was more complicated than expected, the Descriptor "ZunePaint.cd" was not compatible with "ReCatItPro" (it created decomposed menus)
At first I had decided to translate "ZunePaint.catalog" directly, but then I realized that some menu items could not be translated.
Today doing a bit of research on my old OS3 programs, I found the right tool to correctly compile the translated "ZunePaint.cd" Descriptor, now fully functional, see screenshot.
The translation work doesn't end here, slowly I will see if I can localize other important AROS x86 programs into Italian as well.
If someone would like to localize ZunePaint or other Programs in his own language and does not know how to compile them he can send me the Translated Descriptors, Descriptors are simple text files, eventually we can open a thread dedicated to translations.
Translated with www.DeepL.com/Translator (free version)

There is already a tread dedicated to translations and I think that it could be (re)used:
https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?topic=651 (https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?topic=651)
There is also a web to check the progress of the translations, it could be good to get a 100% on every language:
https://github.com/aros-translation-team/translations/wiki/Progress (https://github.com/aros-translation-team/translations/wiki/Progress)

Thanks for the link, in the list are listed system files, in my case these are third party software which usually include .ct and .cd descriptors compatible with the application.

Updated on AROS One "HWP_ZIP" to version 1.2
This plugin allows Hollywood scripts to read and write zip archives. It uses
Hollywood 6.0's new file and directory adapter plugin interfaces which allow
you to iterate through zip archives as if they were normal directories. Files
within zip archives can also be accessed as if the zip archive was a normal
directory. It is not necessary to unpack a file stored in a zip archive to a
temporary file before it can be opened. Hollywood 6.0's file adapter plugin
interface allows direct streaming from the zip archive into the respective
file handler.
Those who would like to update HWP_ZIP, and do not know how to do it manually, the HWP_ZIP archive includes a convenient Installer, see screenshot !
Additionally, zip.hwp offers a range of functions to read, modify, and write
zip archives. New zip archives can be created, existing zip archives can be
opened and modified. There is a variety of functions which allows you to read,
change, and write attributes of files stored in zip archives. On top of that,
zip.hwp also supports reading and storing password-protected files with strong
AES-128, AES-192, and AES-256 encryption.

Thank you miker, a few more days and I would be done, these icons based on my AfA One were liked by many people on the web, some users are waiting for them because they would like to use them on lorio OS3 RTG systems, some time ago I was also asked by the developer of a Distro OS3
Maybe in the future with your application we could have these icons with more colors, this icon brings out the objects as if they were 3D, maybe in the future I can also include the larger 64x64 version that brings out the objects even more.
Some time ago I had created other prototype icons but not very suitable for Amiga/Aros systems, puyoi see them in the screenshot

On AROS One updated to the new version "Exutil"
Exutil: This is a small MUI-based utility that batch renames images with names sorted by Exif or file date. You can rename images with a common name (default is Pic_), followed or driven by the date and a counter for each calendar day.
-
On the upcoming AROS One v2.0 you will be able to choose and install via special installer, 6 types of Disk Icons (all Def_Icons), I attach screenshot showing the 6 icon types.
If anyone likes a particular Icon Disk, they can send me the image, and I will create all the def Icons

Don't worry for the time being we will not release version 2.0, this will happen as soon as deadwood makes the final Build "20200413" available
Meanwhile yesterday I finished the creation of the new AfA One style Icons, also I recreated from scratch many other new images to be used for folders and Applications, some you can see in the attached screenshot (good quality), probably the one in the screenshot will be the "AROS-One v2.0" Graphics Theme

New software on AROS One x86 it's about "Fenachistoscopio", program that loads and displays animations based on
phenakistiscopes, instruments from the 1800s that show small animations.
The frames of these animations were placed along a disc that was rotated and while watching them, the viewer had the impression that the figures came into motion, the phenakistiscope is an ancestor of modern cinema.

Today I installed AROS One x86 on a 60GB SSD.
I'm pleasantly surprised that all my external drives including USB CD/DVD, USB Teac Floppy Drive, USB Multi Card Reader, USB Zip250 Drive simply work. All media mounted correctly using Trident. How do I force a disk to dismount in Trident?
I attached my USB Blu-Ray drive & I inserted Icaros 2.2 Live CD. It mounted correctly. But when I removed the DVD the Icon remained on the Wanderer workbench. All other icons unmounted automatically when the disk was removed
For AROS One x86 how do I know which version I have? Info only shows the version information about AROS ABIv0.
The AROS One x86 Native that I just installed on my mini PC will be great for testing x86 applications. I like the look & feel of AROS One x86. My version will require some custom tools & icons, themes, etc. :)

You can remove Trident from Trident Prefs, but it is complicated, you can instead disassemble it with the "AddUSBHardware" command,
you have to run it twice though (I am preparing a script for AROS One).
Using "AddUSBHardware" after unmounting on real PC the icon remains on the Workbench, while on VMWare the icon is also removed .
The "AddUSBHardware" command is also used to mount a USB volume, but in the AROS version there is no precise information on how to do this.
On Aminet there are scripts that work partially because they are native OS3.
For other Devices (CD/DVD/Floppy) you can use the "Eject" command, to do this you find ready icons in the Utilities folder the files/icons are called "Eject-CD-DVD" and "Eject-Floppy"
To unmount volumes you can also use the Assign command, example "Assign Dismount CD0:"
I attached my USB Blu-Ray drive & I inserted Icaros 2.2 Live CD. It mounted correctly. But when I removed the DVD the Icon remained on the Wanderer workbench. All other icons unmounted automatically when the disk was removed
Is the icon that is left on Wanderer an icon that stays even after a reboot?
For AROS One x86 how do I know which version I have? Info only shows the version information about AROS ABIv0.
There is no way to detect the version of AROS One, from the next version it will be added on the GRUB graphics and AROS Logo
The AROS One x86 Native that I just installed on my mini PC will be great for testing x86 applications. I like the look & feel of AROS One x86. My version will require some custom tools & icons, themes, etc. :)
With the new AfA OS Style icons it will look much better, already many people prefer them, when they have them on the Wandere they will appreciate them even more. suggli screenshots
-
Thanks for the information. :)
For the AROS One version there is a nice graphic for the Themes that goes on the Titlebar of the Wanderer screen. Instead of just a stylized "AROS One" make it for example "AROS One v1.9' That way it is always visible in a nice way.
I will customize mine so you can see how nice it looks. ;)
-
Yes that was what I wanted to do, the problem is that each theme has a different bar, this means that with each version I would have to change all the bars.
I can still unify and use one bar for all themes, that would be the best choice.
Consider that that text on the Bar moves based on video resolutions, it would have been nice to have an option in the system where next to Wanderer and Memory you could also add Distribute, on Amiga OS3.2 this function is part of the operating system, on OS 3.9 there are external applications.
-
Done, unified the top bar with added the version, as you also suggested, also added the version also on the Main Info of AROS, see screenshot ;)

I would like to update LunaPaint with the new code I have for datatype & bit depth conversion for picture files. It would also include Neuquant Color Quantizing. But the executable file is rather large to post on Aminet or Archives.
Would you like to include it in your AROS One x86? The downloads for your distro are large enough that one more package won't make a big difference. ;)
It will take several weeks to complete the changes though all the code already exists. I just need to update it all to make it more cohesive. I also have to spend time testing.
The original author Mons00n did a great job with LunaPaint. When the datatypes code is completed I will use it for all my picture file conversions. The user can select from several background tiles & a few different logo files for "about" box.
The original logo slogan was "Playing With Bugs" That will be the default logo & slogan. Though others are available.
It's just a substantial update for the datatypes conversions for picture files including support for my new TIFF datatype.
-
Yes with pleasure, I don't know if I understood correctly, should I put it in the Graphics folder instead of the old version, or separately ?
How big is the file, on Arosarchive I have seen archives larger than 150 MB !
http://archives.aros-exec.org/?function=showfile&file=development/cross/x86_64-aros-binutils-2.21.1-mingw64-bin.zip
-
The compiled binary is only a few MB in size. Most uploads are much smaller.
I have to do a "clean" update of the sources to be able to provide a complete changelog for the update. I neglected to make a file called Project Notes to detail everything I did. Now I must re-create everything. :(
Luckily LunaPaint is a small program. I'll compile the x86 version of the current build with the newest changes so you can try it out with AROS One x86.
-
As of Build D14 there are some interesting new features, one of them is the new datatypes to display images in the "webp" format, which is widely used on the Internet.
Of defaul could be recognized "webp" images only if they prente the extension, for AROS One I made a small change to the Descriptor and now "webp" images will be recognized even without extension, see screenshot.
For the new "webp" format I also created the custom icon def_webp.info
(https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=774.0;attach=4141;image)
-
Good. Are you committing the change to AROS repository?
-
It is not really a modification of the Descriptor (made for all my Datatypes), I just disabled recognition by extension, the Descriptor does not support the two methods included at the same time.
The procedure adopted on AROS One, as on OS3, is that each file format (Graphics, Music and other file types) has its own Descritor and custom def icona, on AROS Standard there is only one def icon for all types of images, so my procedure is not in line with the standard.
----- Italiano ----
Non è proprio una modica del descrittore (fatta per tutti i miei Datatypes), ho solo disabilitato il riconoscimento per estensione, il Descrittore non supporta i due metodi inclusi contemporaneamente.
La procedura adottata su AROS One, come su OS3, è che ogni formato file (Grafica, Musica e ltra tipologia di file) ha il suo Descrittore e la sua def icona personalizzata, su AROS Standard c'è una sola def icona per tutti i tipi di immagini, quindi la mia procedura non è in linea con lo standard.

Very nice! You do good work. :)
It's good to have options when it comes to icon sets.
-
Thanks miker, this icon requires more careful and more work, I had to enlarge and lengthen it, otherwise with the 48x42 size it was smaller than the 48x46 of the Apps.
Now the size of the icon is 52x50, to my eyes it seems to be the same dimenstine as the App (48x46), naturally there are also 62x60 versionsMax, but these will be needed when there will be a tool to resize the icons like the one present on AfA OS or OS4.1.
Also also all the images have been replaced from how they were on the old AROS One.10, now they have the same images as the other Icons in AROS One 1.9/2.0. see screenshot, sono solo alcune delle icone già create.

SMB2 also works well from Virtual Machine (VMWare), Windows side I created a "Network Drive" on Win7, and copied the "DosDriver" to the WBStartup of AROS One x86, on reboot everything is mounted automatically.

-
Experience with Sharing is very positive, especially if you use a "Network Drive," see screenshot above.
Basically by mounting the SMB2 DOSDrivers via the WBStartup folder, Wanderer will make the share available with Windows automatically, showing the icon on the Wanderer
Positive thing that the Filesystem is perfect, unlike the FAT32 of Pendrive you can rename from lower case to upper case without the loss of the file or folder.
Other Positive thing is that data can be copied quickly, add new data to the share without the need to mount or unmount anything, as was the case with PenDrive

Nuova versione 1.02 del software "RPN Scientific+" installata su AROS O
RPN Scientific+ is a scientific, programmer, and statistic, it allows entry in and simultaneously displays values in decimal, hexadecimal, binary, and time notation. The programmer functions allow displaying values of Long, Word, and Byte signed or unsigned numbers. Numbers and basic functions can be entered using the number pad on your keyboard.
The calculator is stack-based with 4 registers. The stack can be manipulated using the buttons in the upper right of the
calculator. They function per Forth language counterparts. Various options can be set by toggling the green keys. For
example, DEG when pressed toggles from angles in degrees to angles in radians. The FP button alternates between floating point and integer mode. Entering in the Hex or Binary display triggers integer mode. Press FP to return to floating
point.

On AROS One x86 how would I find which def icon belongs to which file based on file signature?
Is it better to get a datatype of the file then detect the base name?
Which is the best way to get the def icon name based on an unknown file?
-
The def icons are associated with any file either by extension, or by the first characters internal file.
MIDI file example Descriptor datatypes
- Through extension .MIDI or .MID
- Through file internal acronym, see screenshot !
-
- Through extension .MIDI or .MID
Although that is an option, please /never/ rely on it.
MS-Windows has shown that using file extension in order to identify files is a nightmare waiting to happen (even though we are not restricted to using 3 characters).
For example some people name their music module "mod.name_of_mod" while others use "name_of_mod.mod"
I have always been so proud of the author of Directory Opus with its file-recognition scripting, e.g. something similar as the mask used in the file-type descriptor. It was one the first programs I used that is flawless in recognizing files correctly (and if not you screwed things up yourself :) )
-
I agree with you, but unfortunately many types of files do not have an "acronym" file start, there are files although they are of the same format have a "different acronym", see precisely the music files "MOD", where each program that creates the MOD, generates an acronympersonalized and therefore different from others.
On AROS One, I use recognition by extension, only on certain types of files where there is no possibility to use the acronym.
On AROS One, not only Wanderer but also Dopus4 recognizes the same file types.
-
The commands GetDefDiskObject & GetDiskObjectNew are what I was looking for. Sorry for the confusion. 8)
But having the correct datatype descriptors is also good.
-
OK miker no problem, also because I didn't know "GetDefDiskObject & GetDiskObjectNew"

In the next Release of AROS One v2.0, thanks to SMB2 it will be possible to connect to a share available on the network.
In theExtras/Internet/SMB2 folder is an example script for installation, also present aa set of icons to assign to the shared volume.
To install the icon it will be sufficient to click on the icon of choice, I attach screenshot showing the available icons.
To see the new icon on Wanderer simply do a refresh of Wanderer from -> Wanderer Menu -> Bacdrop

For OS4 users I have finished the "OS3 Games" Icon Set requested by the "amigans.net" user, now in addition to folders there are also Binary file icons, the same icons will be able to be used on AROS x86/68k, I will only have to change the Folder Type (so as not to infringe copyrights), and the Icon type, OS4 uses "PowerIcons" type Icons.
All icons have been recreated from scratch, now all icons follow the same style, image encompassed in a circle.

One more big effort, to unify the 5 DualPNG Icon Sets of AROs One "Games", after the positive experience with the Icons I created for OS4, also on AROS One x86/68k the Icons will have the images enclosed in a circle with golden border.
The Drawer Icons will always have the qualitative Glow, while the Binary Icons, will have the two faces with different colors, at the moment I am proceeding with the recreation/conversion of the Games Icons.

Installato e configurato per AROS One the new version of the excellent UserMenus da integrare su Wanderer.
UserMenus opens a small window on the screen titlebar which when active, displays your user defined menus.Move the window or change its color and select the Save menu item to create ENVARC:UserMenus.prefs.
This prefs file holds the color, x position, y position,window width, and window height.
You can change the sizeof the window by editing this file. Included are executables for i386 AROS and OS3+, an illustrative example menu definition file for Wanderer, and this readme file.
Use commandline argument -f PATH/UserMenus.def to load a definition file from shell.
-
It looks great.
It would be nice if we could have more than one user menu & two or more user menus could be stacked in a buttonbar launcher to tidy things up like the old ToolManager. Each button would launch a user menu window. Just an idea.
There are so many ways that this little app could be useful.
Wow! The exe file for this is 8.7MB in size for just menus.

Wow! The exe file for this is 8.7MB in size for just menus.

Started the Fix on All Themes, where I am adding new "Lock" "Mui" "Popup" Buttons, so that they are compatible with the Theme graphics.
After the fix in All Themes you will be able to activate and these buttons, on all Themes without any problems or graphic artifacts

What are the extra window gadgets for? What's their purpose?
-
Non sono dei Gadget extra sono gli stessi di MUI su OS3.
Basically I created the Gadgets on the Themes that are spovvised with it, because if some users activate them from Zune Prefs then they will get ugly "squares".
These Gadgets are shortcuts to recallar, Zune Prefs GUI, Zune Menu functions for the Window, Iconify (applications that support it) and snapshot.
If you look at the Screenshot you will see which options Zune Prefs correspond to.
I= Iconify (It works well)
P= Zunemenu Prefs (doesn't work on AROS, works fine on OS3)
S= Snapshot (doesn't work on AROS ?)
M= Zune Prefs GUI (Lock Wanderer)

Very nice! Are these colored window themes available on older versions of AROS One or just version 2.0 forwards?
-
These Themes and plus the ones I am still restoring, have always been presentfrom the first versions of AROS One, with the new versions me I added some more, on AROS One 2.0 there will only be restorations and gadget creation..
Many Themes I created, others were part of AROS Builder, although these I did many restorations to improve the quality
The same Themes are also present on AROS One 68k, you can see them in this old video of mine:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fc8WAjouEBI

Having finished all the Gadgets, here are the remaining AROS One Themes.
In addition to the Mui Gadgets, I also restored and inserted the "DirUp" Gadget, the ones you see in the screenshot.

Finally finished the fourth (and last) series, all four series can be installed in seconds with a single click.
Each series includes all the icons folders in the system about 200, for a total of 800 folders contained in the 4 Icon Styles.
The setup of the Icon Packages do not contain the Binary and Data File icons so those installed in the system, will never be overwritten, also the Binary and Data File Icons should be 200 or so.
Of course, the same can be installed on AROS One 68k as well !

Looking good : :)

Thanks Nigel, I have started another project, this will also take a long time, basically I want to "unify" and customize the icons even more the File Icons "Binary" and the File Icons "Data".
As you can see from the screenshot each image will be enclosed in a ring, so all Icons will have the same shape and images the same size.
The work is complicated enough for some icons that do not fit well in the circle, also many images I have to take them from the old icons keeping quality and sharpness.

Installed AmiFox v03 beta 1 on AROS One x86, I would say it works well, but as ALB42 himself said, it certainly cannot replace a Browser like OWB.
It will probably improve AmiFox and maybe with well-functioning AmiSSL it can serve to reach those sites where OWB cannot access.

There are several methods to create "animated" DualPNG double-sided icons, the first thing to do is to create two PNG images of "equal" size by creating a difference in the image to get the animation effect, and wanting also the "Glow"
Once on OS3 I used to use the "Join" command to join the two images, now with the IconEditor software I can also add Glow, Effects and much more, IconEditor exists for OS3, AROS and OS4.
On AROS there is also "IconPoser", a simple GUI to create DualPNG Icons on the fly, with the ability to set the type.
Creating quality icons requires some experience with graphics programs, precision and a lot of patience, especially if you have to create a whole set of hundreds of icons.

Grimorium PDF was removed from Aros Archive because the AROS x86 version did not work, after having done some Testing with Juan Carlos developer of the software, now Grimorium PDF works, see screenshot.
At the moment however Grimorium PDF cannot be used and will not be present on AROS One x86, the reason is because Grimorium PDF cannot display PDF documents because on AROS "does not exist" the PlugIn "polybios.ext"
Grimorium PDF is a little and fast program to view PDF documents as invoices, receipts, blueprints, etc. created in this format and with the help of powerful zoom cans read the small letter even export the pages to graphic format like jpg, lbm, bmp, png, gif.
The reader is available in the next languages:

The icons with circle for the "Tools" section of AROS One x86 is also finished, if all goes well for AROS One v2.1 in addition to the binary icons, the sitle folder icons "AfA One" will also have the images enclosed in a circle.
Of course, the screenshots reduced in quality to be able to attach them on the forum, do not highlight the graphic quality. this will be enjoyed directly on AROS.
As always the icons are also created in a large 64x62 format, these will be usable when there is an automatic reduction tool on AROS, as there is on Amiga OS4.1

The update for AROS One v2.0 (fix Input Preferences and OpenURL Prefs) is available here:
Hi! As the AROS One v2.0 thread was cleaned, where can I find this Fix? I have this problem with input.
The provided link does not point to any file. Thanks.

warelogix I recreated the update, besides OpenURL Prefs, Input, in the update there are also the 4Sets of AmiFox buttons.
Once you unpacked the Zip Archive, run the "Update-ArosOne" icon, if you want to see the new Buttons on AmiFox you have to restart AROS One.
Be sure not to run AmiFox after the update otherwise the new button preference will be overwritten in the Env-Archive.
If you want to change the Set Buttons to AmiFox, then I will explain how races, for AROS One v2.1 I will prepare scripts for automatic replacement.
Here is the new Update AROS One v2.0

Very nice! Will it also join PNG files? I would surely use it if it did.
Well you use the "Join" command, so anything that can be joined can join, did a test on the fly to join two PNGs to create a DualPNG Icon and it worked, only the PNG images you have to rename them ".vob" ;D
I advised Yannick to add other file types in the request file, which he will do in the next version where file extensions will also be supported: png, mp3 maybe wav too.

The new icons look great. 8)

Thanks miker, I am now creating the setup that will automatically install all the "circled style" App icons on the system.
The Upcoming AROS One 2.1 will have as default the AfA One Icon Set for folders instead the Circled Icon Set for system and third party Apps.
Meanwhile an amigaworld user installed AROS One 2.0 on MAC OS through QEmu, the user was remarkably surprised to see AROS One x86 running with a simple Clic ;)
https://amigaworld.net/modules/news/article.php?storyid=8889
-
With these almost all the circled App Icons have been created, that's about 1200 App Icons in AfA One x86 2.1.
Tomorrow I will start placing all the App Icons in the right locations, and the script for the installer, which will allow you to install and replace all the AROS One App Icons in seconds.
Due to size issue the screenshot is not quality, the icons look much better in reality.

Excellent work. Thank you.

Very nice! Will it also join PNG files? I would surely use it if it did.
Miker out the new version 1.1 of JoinGUI, PNG images are supported, you can join other supported files as well.
To upload other file types such as PNGs, you just have to smply modify the FileRequest, basically you have to leave only the characters "#?"

It looks like it could be useful.

Regarding the folders "with circle", they will no longer be produced, I did some tests and they are not well visible, basically the circle shrinks the image making it lose visibility (too small).
APP icons on the other hand having a white background stand out the image, although on AmiStart, they have the same problem.
AmiStart does not allow you to resize icons, it uses only two sizes, real icon size, and reduced icon size. With the reduced icon size App icons with circle do not fit, for the reasons mentioned above, so it is better to use the real size of icons, see screenshot.
-
This is BoingIconBar showing the new Icons with circle, I remind you that to change the backgrounds just click the icons shown in the screenshot, to do this will require a Reboot, the reason for the Reboot is because "BoingIconBar" cannot be closed by a Shell command, bug reported:
https://github.com/aros-development-team/AROS/issues/589
-
Improved scripts to copy or replace Disk.info in the Shared Volume, now a request will ask for confirmation, or cancellation of copy/replace Icon.
SMB2 works very well, no USB peripheral is needed anymore, only problem is that if the Shared one auto-disconnects if not used for more than 10 minutes, of course a hot reboot is enough to put it back together.

New version 2.1 of Image2PDF, greatly improved program:
A little tool to convert PNG or JP(E)G files to PDF In the first place its meant to convert scans done with e.g. Scandal or Scanquix to PDF Documents in certain output formats like A3, A4, A5, Legal, Letter or ImageSize, but can be used to convert
other png or jp(e)g files too.

For Italian users created the new updated catalog in Italian of Wanderer Prefs !
Today I also created the new updated catalog in Italian of Zune Prefs, as soon as I have it reviewed by Samo for possible translation errors, I will post CT and CATALG files of Zune ITA.
(https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=1063.0;attach=4820;image)
-
Catalog translations continue in Italian, translated and updated Wander Prefs, Zune Prefs, Pointer Prefs, input prefs.
Today I will probably do the translation of Print Prefs and the remaining Apps still untranslated !
(https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=1063.0;attach=4830;image)
-
The Printer prefs and PSI Prefs catalogs have also been translated into Italian, the translations are not finished.
As soon as all the translations are utilmated, they will be available for everyone, reports of any translation errors are welcome.
Once the tests are finished all the translated "catalog" and "ct" files will be available for the whole AROS x86/68k community
(https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=1063.0;attach=4826;image)
-
Today translated the catalogs in Italian of "ReqToos Prefs" and "ASL Prefs", see screenshot, on ASL Preferences I added and modified some string, there remains only one untranslated string, but this is because it is not possible to do it we discussed it HERE (https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?topic=1063.msg16134#new)
(https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=774.0;attach=4841;image)
-
Also translated the "WIMP" catalog, this catalog has not been translated into many languages like the other catalogs.
If any "Italian" user wants to test the translations, and maybe find some inadequate translation, you can contact me in PM.
Consider that I have used abbreviated and sisntetic strings, in order to avoid that the GUIs can enlarge considerably

Completed the update and Italian Translation of the "DiskInfo" and "FTManager" catalogs.
(https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=774.0;attach=4864;image)
-
The "Find" and "Commodity" Catalogs have also been updated and translated :)
The catalogs on AROS are really many, more than I imagined, the translation work continues !

In the latest versions of AROS One, on the Zune configuration "White", I experienced a small problem with the cursor, slowness and in some cases it would get stuck see screenshot.
I solved the problem by recreating the "White" configuration from scratch, now the cursor works fine and I also improved the appearance.
If anyone is interested in the new configuration I will prepare a small installer that will automatically replace and fix all themes that make use of the "White" configuration.
-
Finished the test of SMB2-GUI, the GUI works perfectly on AROS One x86 and AROS One 68k, allows you to create the Mountlist (SMB2) and mount it via special tabs.
The generated mountlis is washed out in Storage/DosDrivers, and reused later when needed in mounts, either through an appropriate Icon or from some Menu or Dock Bar.
The mountlist can also be moved to Devs/DosDrivers, but in my opinion it is not recommended; on some systems, mountlis started early before connection will fail and cannot be remounted later.
(https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=774.0;attach=4875;image)
-
Translated Catalog "More" and "SysExplorer," for SysExplorer some strings remain that cannot be translated at the moment, until "SysExplorer" is updated.
(https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=774.0;attach=4879;image)
-
Update SMB2-GUI on AROS One, Yannick Buchy has updated the GUI, it has been improved and completed, now there are new options, among them the name to choose for the AROS volume that will host the share.
As you can see now my new Zune configurations look better, the cursor is immediate, the background color will change as soon as you click on the Tab to type something.
AROS One always more beautiful and functional !

Installed on AROS one HollywoodCompile Multiplatform v1.1 now also in AROS x86 version.
Yannick Buchy in the next updates will include catalogs for localization in his applications.
(https://i.ibb.co/6Br0WhP/Hollywood-Compile.jpg)
-
Two more Italian translations of the important catalogs, InstallAROS and Multiview ;)
From the next version of AROS One, you will be able to use "installAROS" in Italian or other available language, simply by clicking on the link of the "Local Prefs" icon present on Wanderer, and after choosing the Language clicked on the tab "Use"

-
Other catalogs have been translated into Italian, others have been updated and recreated, these in new catalogs in Italian:
- Editor
- Editor Prefs
- Executecommand
- Executestartup
-
Finished the Italian catalogs of "HDTooBox" and "Info Icon".
On HDToolbox I could not translate some strings because they were non-existent on the file, reported to Mazze HERE (https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?topic=1063.msg16385#new)
Incon was recreated from scratch and updated.
Many existing Italian catalogs were out of date, and lacked the original English description.
-
After 2 days of intensive work, the triton catalogue (over 300 strings) was translated into Italian
-
Updated version 9.0.1546 of VIM, installed on the new AROS One 2.1
Vim is a highly configurable text editor built to make creating and
changing any kind of text very efficient. Vim is rock stable and is
continuously being developed to become even better. Among its features
are:
* persistent, multi-level undo tree
* extensive plugin system
* support for hundreds of programming languages and file formats
* powerful search and replace
* integrates with many tools
Please note that this is not a straight port of the upstream version.
It includes a full MUI GUI with most of the bells and whistles found
in Vim on any of the major platforms.
The source code is available here:
https://github.com/sodero/MUI-Vim
https://sourceforge.net/projects/mui-vim/
-
Finished the Italian translations of the catalog, they are 43, these are the utimi translated:
Boot
ASL library
Clock
DiskimageDevice
Dos
Font
Format
Keyshow
Muimaster
Palette
Pcitool
ScreenGrabber
SysMon
Wbrename
If any Italian would like to test and find some translation errors I would be happy, there are catalogs such as for example "Plalette" which is not easy to translate, it is proved by the fact that many translators from other countries have made different translations among themselves.

Updated on AROS One the "LHA" Command to version 1.14i.
LHa for Unix with a handful of hacks to make it behave more like the
AmigaOS implementation by Stefan Boberg et. al. File permissions and
comments are preserved, Amiga wildcards are supported and extraction
target directory can be specified without using alien Unixdklsfjiss.
This is based on LHA for Unix with Autoconf by Koji Arai.
-
Created on AROS One a small script for choosing and playing Midi Files.
The script uses WildMIDI Player and the request file is set to recognize midi files with .mid, .midi and .kar extensions
Some eseperto developer wanting in the future could improve the script.
-
Update on AROS One some Hollywood PlugIns:
- HWP_hURL v2.0
- HWP_APNG v1.2
- HWP_YAFA v1.2
- HWP_TIFF v1.2
- HWP_PCX v1.2
- HWP_JEPEG2000 v1.2
- HWP_FLIC v1.2

Successfully compiled the new version of WildMIDI v0.4.5, now it is possible to play a list of Midi files in succession, also improved the script, now it is possible to make the Multi choice files to play.
As mentioned on other post, the new version 0.4.5 of WildMidi, no longer uses the musical instruments contained in the famous folder "Timidity", but uses a folder containing the Musical instruments "FreePats".
The old WildMidi AROS version 0.2.3.5, included the "Timidity" path in its binary, while the new version v0.4.5 through the WildMidi.cfg file allows you to set the path of the musical instruments and its contents.
On AROS One in order not to have Musical Instruments scattered in different paths, I modified te path Musical Instruments in the WildMidi.cfg file, using the musical instruments of "Timidity", now both versions will find all the musical instruments needed in "Timidity"
The two Palyers can now coexist on AROS One, but in different folder, for the reasons mentioned the old version 0.2.3.5, is not compatible with the WildMidi.cfg file, if present in its folder is used, ma it will not work (instruments designated by WildMidi.cfg not compatible)

Installed SploinerGUI v1.0r3 on the new AROS One 2.1.
SploinerGUI is a new small programm realized with Hollywood: a GUI for Sploiner
command. IT allow to join and split files easiest.
The interface uses the Hollywood RapaGUI external module.
Other GUI are under study (FFMPEG, file conversion, etc.).
Don't hesitate to contact me if you want a specific project.
Thanks a lot to:
- MorphOS Team for MorphOS
- Andreas Falkenhahn for Hollywood and plugins
- Bernd Assenmacher for his code source to begin in Hollywood
- Beworld for his help
- jPV for his help
- AMIGASYSTEM for tests on others plateforms and for the icons
History
1.0r3 - fixed "split" instead of "join" in logbox
1.0r2 - fixed the uppercase problem, thanks to Holger for his return.
1.0 - first public release for MorphOS, AmigaOS4.x, AmigaOS3.x and ARO
-
Reintegrated "AROSAmp," on AROS One, I had deleted this software from AROS One because it was unstable, facially going into Guru.
After a long time I wanted to try it again, and to my amazement I noticed that with the new versions of AROS One x86 it works very well.
Of course it is an Alpha version, but adeso it is very tabile can also run an MP3 Playlist, without hiccups or slowdowns, I would say a very good tool for listening to mp3s.
On the occasion for AROS One I created the new DualPNG Icons in the various AROS One styles, and a new Skin called "Aros One," see screenshot
(https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=774.0;attach=4989;image)
-
Created 4 Skins for AROSAmp, also made some changes on size, song lyrics were coming out of the predetermined range.
I hope the development will be continued, AROSAmp is a great tool for listening to an MP3 Playlist.
The Skins are changed manually, in this Alpha version the "change skins" function is not acurrently enabled, but on AROS One I will create scripts so that AROSAmp will start with the preferred Skin.
(https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=774.0;attach=4991;image)

Updated AROS One with InstallerLG v1.0.3, from the next release of AROS One, InstallerLG will be the official Installer of the Distribution.
On AROS One InstallerLG will permanently replace the system Installer, and all installation software will have InstallerLG (renamed Installer) as a tool in the icon tooltypes.
InstallerLG is also localizable into the languages "Italian," "German," "Swedish," and "Russian"

Created 2 more Themes for AROSAmp, in the process of finishing 2 more new themes which will be the last ones.
If anyone wants some particular AmigaAMP/WinAMP "compatible" theme to bring AROSAmp, they can make the request here attaching a screenshot of the main GUI.
Yesterday's day I devoted it to the AROSAmp configuration script, the various "underneath" buttons did not match (larger size) those of the main GUI, I had to locate and correct all the values.
In addition to correcting the values, I also recreated the underlying buttons in the same style as those in the Main GUI, but with slightly different color.
(https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=774.0;attach=5008;image)
-
Completed the Skins set for AROSAmp for AROS One x86 (all created by hand), there are 12 new Skins, one of which is Lite (see attached video).
Also I managed to correct the graphical artifacts, now the GUIs look perfect, in the video you can see the 12 new Skins loaded all at the same time, plus the 3 default Skins.
AROSAmp, although it is an alpha version, is very stable, only the exit gadget and the Skin change (not implemented) do not work, you can still exit the Menu and change the Skins from the scripts I created (see video).
PlayList and preference program works well.
AROSAmp Video Tutorial:
https://youtu.be/vgY3j8tTdz8
-
As you may have noticed in the video attached above, in the AROSAmp GUIs the track title is not visible, To the lack of the title in the ID3v1 tag of the file.
On the next AROS One, you will find AROSAmp complete, scripts fixed (file paths change) and new icons for the Skin change procedure, "already done" :) see screnshot!
(https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=774.0;attach=5013;image)
-
New graphic look also for MPlayer, created "ZUNE" backgrounds and new Buttons.
Tomorrow will create scripts for on-the-fly change of Skins, via usual icon.
The experienced user will be able to make different matches, replace Buttons and edit the simple scripts.
The Black theme will probably be the default theme for AROS One
If anyone likes a particular Button or background, they can attach an image here where I can use it for the new theme.

@AMIGASYSTEM
I just updated my VirtualBox AROS installation (used for testing filesysbox/smb2-handler) from AROS One 1.9 to 2.0 (completely clean install, hardfile wiped). I used pretty much the same settings as before (full install with extras and developer files installed onto Work: partition) but when I open a shell and try to start sashimi it says that the command can't be found.
I didn't have this problem with AROS One 1.9 and I don't recall installing sashimi manually (I can't even find an AROS version of sashimi either on AROS archives or aminet) so I'm guessing that it's been removed from the distro by mistake, or maybe installed somewhere where it's not in the path?
-

I fixed it by copying sashimi from the AROS One 1.9 ISO (it's in the System directory of the disc). On the 2.0 ISO it seems to be missing (or it's in a different place).
-
Ciao Salasso, with the new Core, Sashimi is now located along with other Debug tools in the path:
SYS:System/Debug.
In addition, "Sashimi" along with "Snoopy," are also available on AmiStart, see screenshot !
Of course from that path it couldn't work from the Shell, eventually I will copy the Debug tools to the system C folder as well, that way it will work wherever you run it.

New look on AROS One also for OWB, new Black and Blue Buttons, also improved Buttons in Stle Firefox and Crome.
Today I will prepare scrip and a video showing how to replace Themes with a single click.
(https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=774.0;attach=5030;image)
-
Also finished the scripts to change the "Theme buttons" on OWB, see screenshot !
To change the Theme just click on the icon of the chosen theme, before starting OWB, or after exiting OWB, this is because the Theme in use cannot be overwritten.
The script will not only replace the Buttons, but also restore the Zune preferences, in case of accidental changes on the Zune preferences.
(https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=774.0;attach=5032;image)

One more game chosen to enrich the games section of AROS One.
Powermanga is a shoot'em up game; you will have to fight more than 60 different types of enemies.
You start with a ship, and enemies show up throwing bombs at you. Shoot them, and get better weapons for your ship (otherwise, you won't go too far!)
To get better weapons, you will have to catch green and red gems. When-ever you pick a green gem, the highlighted option at the right side of the screen goes up one unit.
-
Also for AmiFox I created the scripts to change the "Button Theme" on the fly, at the moment there are 4 themes available, see screenshot
(https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=774.0;attach=5042;image)

Small video showing how to change the Theme on BoingIconBar, which you can now do without Restart the operating system.
You will find this new feature on the Prossomo AROS One v2.1. As shown by attached video you will be able to change the backgrounds or delete it altogether.

Has been updated SMB2FS by bravo "salass00", this version has been improved, now when accessing shared "without password", no request is shown.
Successfully tested creating and mounting SMB2 through SMB2-GUI by the bravo "Yannick Buchy" included on AROS One (see screenshot)
You will find SMB2FS installed on the new version of AROS One 2.1 that will be released in a few weeks, after testing ISO and USB image on both Virtual Machine and PC.

For the new AROS One v2.1, I have updated all 4 styles of Icons to the newly installed applications and newly created scripts, many icons have been graphically improved.
I would say it is the most complex part of AROSOne, in fact the installation of the icon packages will have to replace "all icons" designated, without losing the Tooltyes data and assigned tools.
Now the creation of the ISO DVD andUSB Image and the various functionality tests can be started, after which AROS One v2.1 will be deployed.
(https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=774.0;attach=5057;image)
-
Also released is a new version of filesysbox.library V54.4 for OS3 and AROS x86, now you can unmount and remount the same shared folder, also works on virtual machines like VMware.
This will allow those using Windows shares to disconnect "expired" shares after 15 minutes !!!
On AROS One created special Script that DisMount and Mount the "disconnected" connection (see screenshot)
As a matter of security Windows systems disable network shares after 15 minutes, this disassembly procedure avoids changing this Windows feature.

Testing AROS One 2.1 it looks great, thanks for the hard work.
Meanwhile I found the same problem in two places, it easily corrected changing the path.
If you install using Work for Extras:
RNOTunes has no icon and has a non working path in Amistart (SYS:Extras/Music....), for some reason it's not working with that path. I have to correct to Extras:Music....The same happens with OWB Theme changing scripts. However using the shell it works fine, Amistart problem interpreting path's?
There's an empty SYS:Extras folder present...
RNOTunes also gives an error stating : Syntax Error in line: -268434840!,File: RNOPlayer.hws (current line:2636 - In function: ?)
Regards
-
The errors you are experiencing are all due to the path you changed ! RNOTunes works fine and has the correct icon, OWB Themes also work fine.
Can you tell me the exact path you gave to OWB and RNOTunes ? can you take a screenshot of Work ?
Consider that Extras is not only a folder, but also a Volume, this is necessary if I installed Extras on other Disk or other partition.
Basically all the applications that are in Extras, reside in the EXTRAS volume:
-
Sorry, nope, the errors are out of box, just after clean installing with no changing at all. RNOTunes even starts with a black icon on Amistart bar.
I know Extras is a volume that's why I changed the path to Extras:Music... as I said the path it's working now but
RNOTunes gives that error even if you navigate to the folder and start it from there.
I am doing another clean install on another PC to see if this happens again.
-
Ok, thanks warelogix for pointing that out.
Basically it is not an error, when you create the Work partition, SYS:Extras is not recognized (I can see to add an assign)
I attach you an Archive with Fixes for Amistart and OWB Theme, you just have to replace your files.
Of course restore your changes first, if you encounter other problems report them ! ;)
-
Hi Amigasystem, I confirmed with a second install on another PC. The same result.
I applied your fix (which also correspond to the changes I made manually) and it solved the issue.
Thanks!
Regards
-
Okay, I am checking if there are other fixes to do, for example on VAMP, there is the configuration file "Skinvamp.cfg", basically just edit:
SYS:Extras/Video/VAMP/Skins/BlackNight
with
Extras:Video/VAMP/Skins/BlackNight
-
@All
Of course those who don't install AROS One on 2 Partitions or 2 Disks don't have to do any fixes
-
Created a new SMB2 script, now on AROS One you can Mount SMB2, SMB2-Dismount, SMB2-Restart (when the share is distracted by Windows). I attach a video showing the functionality of the 3 scripts.
Those who install AROS One, to benefit from these scripts will first have to create the DOSDrivers (SMB2) with SMB2-GUI, which in turn will install the MountList + Icon (SMB2) in SYS:Storage. Having done this, the user will be able to mount from a Shell or the SMB2.info icon.
After mounting you will also be able to use the SMB2-Dismount and SMB2-Restart scripts, see video:

Found one tiny bug. When opening Utilities from the start menu, then opening any app, the title bar of the Utilities menu gets corrupted. I attached a small video demonstrating this.
-
Is this also happening if you open the Utilities directory from Wanderer? (AROS One DVD -> Utilities)
-
Yes I confirm it happens only with amistart, from wanderer there is no corrupted window title.
Actually on amistart you should not click on the folder "Utilities" but in its contents, in fact the other items in amistart are not clickable, only "Utilities" is clickable, I will see if something can be corrected, or I will make "Utilities" not clickable like the folders "System" and "Prefs"

Made some verifications, in fact in the Amistart menu, the folders "Utilities" that "System", have been inserted as "FileSystem", and this allows you to click on the main item and create the bug, if instead you choose "Application" you can no longer click on the item "Utilities" and "System", but only on the applications included in the list.
Now the problem is that "Utilities" that "System" cannot be configured as "Application," because the scripts to configure folder and its contents are missing, an operation that I think can only be done manually, already tried and it seems to work fine.
-
After some testing done, the "Utilities" and "System menus of AmiStart on AROS One, will now be changed and set as "Application," you will no longer be able to click to open the Directory, but you will be able to click all the configured applications (see screenshot), of course each user will be able to delete or add what they want.

-
Is this also happening if you open the Utilities directory from Wanderer? (AROS One DVD -> Utilities)
Strangely, no. The only way I was able to make this happen is if I open Wanderer from that menu.
-
This is an Amistart Bug, basically it only happens if you open a folder from Amistart.
If you try to open folders from Wanderer, and then run an application from AmiStart no corruption happens on the title bar.
For this reason I fixed Amistart, I disabled the ability to open a window, now if you try to click on "Utilities" or "Prefs" nothing will happen, no folder will be opened.
I attach here the fix, you need to copy these files to the SYS:System/AmiStart path:
-
On the occasion of the AmiStart fix I recreated icons, now all icons are AROS One style

On AROS One, in addition to Dopus4 also on Wandere you can preview a "TrueType" Font by simply clicking on the icon.
(https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=774.0;attach=5101;image)
-
Thanks to the "ViewFont" included on Dopus5, now on AROS One with Dopus4 but also on Wanderer, it is possible to view native Amiga and AROS "bitmap fonts" with a simple double-click on the file.
Now on AROS One all fonts used on Amiga and AROS are viewable with one click on both Dopus4 and wanderer.

Created the Datatypes Descriptor for "Bitmap Fonts" and "TrueType Fonts", in the next AROS One x86 all the mentioned Fonts will have an Icon (def_Font, def_TTF) with the Fonts display tool.
Also directories including Fonts now have an Icon, this will speed up Fonts browsing, I would say a nice update, until yesterday no AROS Application could show "Bitmap Fonts" and "TrueType Fonts" through an Icon.
I attach screenshot showing the Icons associated with "Bitmap Fonts", "TrueType Fonts" and Fonts Directories.

Excellent work with the font viewers. Nice!
-
On AROS One x86 there is also "FontTester" which also allows you to test Fonts on a background, but it cannot be associated as a tool in the tooltype icon , missing function, so for quick reference it is very convenient to do it through the icon.

So are you using two different methods (Font Viewers) to display TrueType Fonts and Bitmap Fonts ? Which apps do the icon Tooltypes use to display each type of font ?
-
Yes I use 2 different tools "ViewFont" included on Dopus5 for "Bitmap Fonts" while for "TrueType Fonts" I use ViewISO

Very neat piece of functionality :); Thanks again for working to make AROSOne so polished (built of course on the massive recent progress from the developers on the core system) - that realy makes such a difference when a new user trys out the system.
Cheers,
Nigel.
-
Thanks, AROS One really focuses on its look, of course there are some "fanatic" users who like the old Amiga icons, maybe all different size and ugly to see, or classic Amiga windows theme.
As you said all the "new attracts" many users especially new users, having AROS with a default or old Amiga style look makes a new user think that nothing has changed, and so they trash AROS after starting it.
-
Available on upcoming AROS One AmiTranslate, an excellent Multilanguage translator, copy-paste of texts also available
A DeepL interface for Aros Systems with additional PDF output that you can read the chars nor easily printable by MUI

Nice addition, as always!

Very nice! I like that.
Now I can translate Italian, and other languages, into English. ;)
-
Yes really good Amitranslate, simple, fast and great Translator thanks to "deepl"
(https://ae.amigalife.org/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=774.0;attach=5148;image)
I have always used deepl on my PCs, in my opinion the best Translator on the Web
https://www.deepl.com/translator
On OS3 as already mentioned, on Amiga there was an old Off-line program called "Ital" that translated from English to Italian, also possible translation of amigaguide and html documents, without loss of text formatting. On Dopus4 you could translate automatically, with one click, see attached my old video

Create the icons for the new Applications released these days, of course for the 8 Types of Icons used by AROS One x86/68k.
I would like to mention that in the ISO of AROS One x86 v2.1, I forgot to add the new updated Icons archives for the 4 Typologies, which you will find in the next release of AROS One.
Should anyone be interested in a type they can create an installation package.
The 64x62 sized icons are not included on AROS One, but they are prepared for a future Wanderer that can resize the system icons automatically, at the moment it is not convenient to mix icons of different sizes, this would lead to a missed alignment and distances of the icons and the text, visible in the screenshot.
-
I would like to report that if anyone has problems to Install BoingIconBar on AROS One x86 v2.1, to replace AmiStart, this is due to the fact that in the Dock Menu there is the icon of "SMB2", when a file/icon is not found, BoingIconBar fails.
I remind you that for a definitive installation, so the replacement of AmiStart, you have to do it through the script "Install-BoingIconBar" that you find in the path SYS:System\BoingIconBar
To solve it just edit the "Iconbar.prefs" Text File you find in the Env-Archive and delete SMB2 from the "Internet" menu, or create the "SMB2" connection with SMB2-GUI, which will automatically create the SMB2 Storage/DOSDriver with its Icon, you can also copy it by hand.
-
What is the difference between AmiStart and BoingIconBar?
-
Theoretically no difference, AmiStart is on the style of Start "WinXP", besides aclicking on icons it allows you to navigate and run all the Apps available in the paths.
BoingIconBar is on the Mac's Dock, which was originally born on AMIGA systems, this one allows you to have multiple sections "just turn the Mouse wheel or change sections from the Menu"
BoingIconBar is native AROS and can also be configured by hand, while AmiStart is more complex and allows for many more functions.
-
Updated DigiClock on AROS One v2.2, with a newer version found on Archive-Aros.
Transparency and Font replacement is now available which makes the App less intrusive, see screenshot.

I forgot, for those who don't know, if you click on the "Time" generated by DigiClock, it will open the gui of "Time prefs," so the calendar will also be available.

In the next release ofAROS One the default search engine "Google" on OWB has been replaced with "DuckDuckGo", see screenshot !
The reason for the change,emto is because Google is no longer supported by OWB, basically no "reCAPTCHA" validation, see request screenshot !
-
Try updating certificates Rename this file
-
Yes thank you, with the updated certificates the OWB search engine works , with "DuckDuckGo" on the other hand it always works, this can be useful for inexperienced users who don't know how to update Certificates.
-
I've never had any trouble with Google giving me captchas unless I try to use it through Tor or a VPN, which Google considers "unusual activity".
-
yes every now and then you need to update the certificates
-
Yes we are lucky that we can simply update certificates on Odyssey otherwise it will be unusable
-
I've never had any trouble with Google giving me captchas unless I try to use it through Tor or a VPN, which Google considers "unusual activity".
It also happens on Windows, if you persist with Google to search the same thing over and over again, other engines also practice restrictions, "DuckDuckGo" seems to be more tolerant, also it seems to be faster and lighter !
-
DuckDuckGo also doesn't (at least they claim to not) track your searches, while Google is notorious for that. There's also a plain HTML version (no JavaScript), which is even lighter. https://html.duckduckgo.com/html/

New version of AmiTranslate (0.2), improved and fixed some bugs, the scrollbars for the text edits did not work why not connected to the actual textedit.
The pdf did not care about returns or line wrap so a longer text are not readable. Now it cares about returns in the text and will also insert line wraps for longer texts.
A wish was to include a context menu for both edits to copy and paste text.

If you use FireFox you can install the add-on "TWP - Translate Web Pages", in my opinion the best one, it allows you to translate in your language all the web page with one click, you can also translate the selected text.

Forgot to mention that 'LoView' can also serially rename and save the image in different formats such as: JFF, JPG, PNG and BMP, see video attached above
As you can see from the screenshot, two scripts were created to change the Button Theme, "Standard" and "ArosOne"

I have changed the Default tool for OpenURL, it is now set to AmiFox, OWB when used as a tool by OpenURL returns a GURU, the GURU is motivated by the fact that OWB requires a high Stack (20000) to run, this stack cannot be configured on OpenURL.
AmiFox is not a true browser, as well as working well with OpenURL, it allows access to sites no longer supported by OWB.

Made a small change on AROS One, now SMB2-GUI will not only generate the DOSDrivers (SMB2), it will also be possible to Mount the share on Windows or other OS.
The DOSDrivers generated with SMB2-GUI will be saved by the programme in Storage/DOSDrivers, and that for later mounting will have to be done via a script or a link to its Icon, perhaps conveniently from Amistart or BoingIconBar.
I would like to remind you not to run SMB2 from Devs/DOSDrivers, from WBStratup or from User-Startup, otherwise the mount will fail, this is because SMB2 must be run after Wanderer has been started.
I would also like to remind you that on AROS One there are two condamental tools for this service in the ExtrasInternetSMB2 path:
- SMB2-Restart = serves to ReMount SMB2, when Windows deactivates "by default" after about 15 minutes "network shares"-.
- SMB2-DisMount = This tool serves to DisMount SMB2

From the next version of AROS One, Dopus4 will use XAD library to handle most archives, all known Archive formats are supported such as LHA, LZX, ZIP, 7z, TAR.BZ2, TAR, TAR.GZ, ZOO, RAR Archives version 4 and 5 will be unpacked from UnRAR as before.
I enclose a small easustive video where you can see how Dopus4 with a "Double Click" can examine the content of the Archives and with "M Click" unzip the archive to the predefined path on the second window of Dopu4

Having completed all Datatypes Descriptors, AROS One now recognises TIF, WEBP and PPM images.
All Image File Types in the Icon Tooltype have the tool "LoView", excluding TIF images because TIFF Datatypes do not yet exist on AROS.
For TIFF images I have used the tool "VindentiumPicta" in the tooltype, but the image must be dragged to the "VindentiumPicta" window because this programme cannot be associated, hopefully "Juan Carlos" will add this function to his programmes.
-
Two more new descriptors for AROS One, these are "XBM" (X BitMap) and "XPM" (X PixMap), both formats are not handled graphically by Multiview but are well managed by LoView!

I have associated AmiFox with OpenURL requests, a tool used by Amiga/AROS Software to direct you to their site for any updates or news.
I would say that it is very fast and very practical to download the software, I made a small video showing the functionality of AmiFox !!!

By Christmas I should be able to distribute the new version 2.3 of AROS One, there are a lot of new features in this release, updated Core, new software and a lot of updated software.
In addition I have created new configurations and completed the 4 Icon Sets, as always installable through a simple click, there are now almost a thousand of them.
Among the novelties of AROS One v2.3 there is the presence of 3 new Directories located in "Extras" it's about "Benchmarks", "DemoEffects" and "DemoScene", see screenshot, it's about a lot of very good Demo on RTG screen, many of them came from Amiga world.

Concerning the Benchmarcks folder, to close the BogoMIPS Shell, you had to use the "Enter" key, while the "SPS" and "Terrain" demos inside the B4SDL folder are interactive, i.e. you can navigate with the "arrow keys", of course they will be faster if you have a supported graphics card.

For those who use VMware will have noticed that on GRUB the keyboard does not work (on VirtualBox it does), so it was not possible to choose and start other items in the Menu.
Today doing a little bit of testing I managed to enable on VMware the keyboard on GRUB, it is a simple operation, once loaded the GRUB just put the Mouse so that the window is active, and press one of the keys "Win" either left or right, done this will activate the keyboard.
Now as on VirtualBox you will be able to use either the Arrow Keys for movement, the "e" key to edit or issue other commands, or the CTRL+x keys to forward typed commands
With this I confirm the presence on the GRUB of AROS One an entry that allows you to directly start "Early Startup Control" for avii Volumes management, run applications such as Dopus4 etc..

Big buzz in the AROS world, I am beta testing some updates and new software for AROS x86, among them are LoView, ProTrekkr and Control Sonos (now also on AROS x86)
Among them is the new 2024 version of LoView by the good Simone Monsignori, it works perfectly, it is in fact the system Viewer for AROS One x86/68k, although AROS One has numerous Viewers.
I chose LoView because of its datatypes support that allows you to view all common graphic formats and more, it also allows SlideShow by clicking on a single image, as well as being able to insert effects and a music base.
LoView will be available soon for all Amigose platforms !

Realised a new 0.6 Multiplatform version of AmiFox on the occasion of the first anniversary of the release of AmiFox.
AmiFox is a very useful Application, it allows to reach all those Sites where OWB cannot access properly.
Included in this new version is the language feature that allows you to tell Google and other pages which languages you prefer.
Also added although not yet finalized is the history feature.
AmiFox v0.6 you will find it in the upcoming AROS One v2.5, AROS One includes an interchangeable keys configuration, to do this just run the icons found in the "Themes prefs" folder.
These themes work only on AROS One because of the setting included in the scripts run from the icon.

Hello AmigaSystem and thx a lot yet for your os which is my favorite !
So then i would like to know if it is preferable to make all the reinstallations of versions of the os or if the 2.4 version is enought to use without updates ?
As this if it is preferable, how do you see to offer us updates ? i mean the delays ? every months ? two months ?
Thx a lot yet and regards !

AROS One has no fixed deadlines, it all depends on new third-party software and new Builds released, usually about 2 releases per year.
If there are Core updates you have to install everything from scratch, this is to avoid incompatibilities.
If, on the other hand, there are only third-party software updates then there will only be updates and there is no need to do a fresh install.
Lately, as for AROS One 2.4 the whole structure of the Core has been changed (compiled C library), so a new installation was inevitable.

Due to some requests from users and developers I have created a Lite Version of AROS One, this version anticipates the release of AROS One v2.5, which if there will be no news also from Rufus, soon will be distributed the Complete version both in ISO and USB Image format.
This ISO Lite is complete with everything, it includes the new Core with the latest updates and fixes, to make it smaller 419 MB Zipped, 836 MB uncompressed, I removed Development and many third-party software from the Extras folder.
Among the important new features of AROS One 2.5, you'll find the possibility to delete highlighted files and folders with the CANC key, added on GRUB "EarlyStartup" where from the prompt you can just type "uCommander" where from its menu you can directly access Dopus4 or a Text Editor, needed for maintenance when for some reason AROS doesn't boot.
Those who download AROS One Lite and encounter problems or anomalies can report them here

Thank you, from the OWB MOS Catalog in addition to the Catalog of Spain I have also recovered the Catalog of France, Turkey and the Czec..
While waiting for your programme "WitchCleaner", given the many files produced by OWB in the Cache, i created a small script that with one click deletes all the files in the Cache folder, see screenshot !
Changed GRUB's screen resolution, now set to 640 x 480, also improved uCommander support running from 'Early Startup'.
Also seen some user requests, added ClickToFront in WBstartup, handy for moving between folders with one click.

AROS One v2.5 will include as always new software and new updates which will be listed in the News !
On AROS One I have removed the Icons archive (4 types) that are available on an external package, the same thing will happen for SDL Games and 3D Games, this is to avoid enlarging the ISO too much, and because these games are more suitable for owners of supported Native Video Card.

For SMB2 mounting, the final solution was found for the automatic mounting of the Network Shared Folder or Unity.
In practice there were two drawbacks, the first one was if SMB2 and its Icon were copied to WBStartup or via User-startup execution, in which case the SMB2 DOSDrivers were mounted too early before the system was connected, consequently the mount failed and the DOSDrivers had to be renamed to be mounted.
The other drawback was if SMB2 and its Icon were copied to Devs/DOSDrivers, in this case the Mounting was done automatically without errors, but the connection was not Active, no Icon on the Wanderer, to activate the connection and have the icon appear on the Wanderer you had to first type SMB2: somewhere (Shell or Dopus4).
The first solution I found was to copy SMB2 and its Icon to Storage/DOSDriver and then click on the SMB2 Icon on the Wanderer or AmiStart.
The solution found now allows automatic mounting, which was successfully tested on native AROS installed on a PC and on WMvare.
In practice, SMB2 and its Icon must be copied to Devs/DOSDrivers, while a small script must be created and copied to WBStartup, where the SMB2 command must be inside it, preceded by a Wait with a minimum time value in order to delay the assembly and give the system time to connect to the network.
Info and scripts will be available in the next AROS One, the described procedure can only be done after the user has created his personal SMB2 that includes his Network data.

After completion of the ISO and USB Image Tests, the new AROS One 2.5 will be available for download later this week.
For "Burning" the USB Image you will still have to use Rufus v3.2, unfortunately the stable version of Rufus 4.5 released a few days ago can correctly create the USB Image, but once burned and started AROS after the Grub will not find the SFS Partition.
The same USB Image created Rufus 4.5 can be "Burned" with Rufus v3.2 without any errors, the created Live Pendrive will boot AROS One safely.
From the screenshot you can see the new Theme and Amifox logged into Facebook, at the same time Mplayer plays a streaming MP3 and OWB opens the Aros archive site

New Descriptors were created and others improved, now the most common Floppy, CD-DVD, HD and HardFile images are recognised by Wanderer even if the files have no extension.
Of course if anyone is interested in a particular Descriptor for a particular file format, and having an associated Def_Icon, they can request one.
Regarding Floppy Images (.IMG) and HD Images (.IMG), despite the same extension, the Workbench will know which Def_Icon and which tool to use, see screenshot
Of course, these Descriptors also work perfectly on AMiGA OS3 and OS4.

An exclusive gift to all AROS One users from developer Juan Carlos !
The final version of "Pintor Wb" has been released. Compared to the previous version, this new release includes improvements and a few more effects/filters.
Pintor Wb comes with a manual that includes practical examples of what the application can do, and unlike the version uploaded to the AROS archives, the AROS One version includes a few extra features and the registration key that unlocks the option to save images
Of course, those who do not use AROS One can make a personal request for the registration key directly to the developer as described in the manual.

Today I wanted to see if it was possible to use wallpapers on MPlayer and I must say that thanks to MUI/Zune the operation is possible.
In the next version or update it will be possible to change Wallpapers and Buttons also possible to interchange Wallpapers with Buttons, this is possible as both have different methods of setting Preferences.
Of course all users could create their own Themes, maybe with different Backgrounds and Buttons, of course some AROS/Amiga experience is needed, but if anyone wants information on how to create them they can do so in the Thread AROS One Support, Tips And Requests (https://www.arosworld.org/infusions/forum/viewthread.php?thread_id=1154&rowstart=80&pid=5965#post_5965).
For those who don't know Mplayer (It exists only on AROS and MorphOS) is a Multimedia Player that supports all common Video and Audio formats.
MorphOS Users could also use it, but will have to do a manual installation!

About ten days ago the Youtube Channel of InstallOS (https://www.youtube.com/@installos) published a video on how to install AROS One, too bad it showed the old version of AROS One 2.5.
The Video is of Good workmanship, it lasted minimum the time to install AROS One, I liked a lot the commentary of course positive, the only thing that you can notice is that the author is not a connoisseur of Amiga/AROS you can notice it when he tries to use some Application.
I enclose a link to the Video Tutorial on how to install AROS One, but be careful in the tutorial he skipped the "Wipe Disk", fundamental when using Hardisik or other peripherals previously used for Windows, MAC or Linux installations.
Basically the "Wipe Disk" wipes any bootloader and writes the native Amiga RDB, in his case it was not necessary because he used a Virtual HardFile on VM, for the rest all the procedure is correct, here is the link of the video:

Since with CAB Archives it seems that it is not possible to unpack them from Wanderer, but only from Dos, I found a way to do it through a simple Icon from Wanderer using the magic WBXCLI command created by the good "magorium"
I would like to point out that there are 2 types of CAB Archives (there is also a third one which is not used much), not to be confused, one is the "cabinet" used by Microsoft, the other by "InstallShield cabinet", usually the files are named "_sys.cab", "data1.hdr", "data1.cab", "data2.cab".
Wander thanks to two of my descriptors will recognise both CAB formats and associate the correct tool to unpack them.
I remind you that Microsoft CABs can be unpacked with the "Cabextract" command while "InstallShield" CABs can be unpacked with the "Unshield" command
To unpack both CABs, simply double-click on the icon and the data will automatically be unpacked in RAM in a folder called "Unpacked".
The "Unpacked" folder does not have a physical Icon will be visible if "Show all files" is set, on AROS One this setting on the RAM Icon is set by default.
I enclose Video Tutorial showing how to unpack the two versions of CAB from Wanderer and Dops4 (Microsoft CAB only)

Today I tried my hand at creating some Scripts to make it easier for all those users who are not Amiga Emulation experts.
Basically I've created some simple scripts in AmigaOS so that an Emulator would be started, with a typical configuration so that the user only has to add the Floppy (ADF).
The scripts should work on any "Amigosa" Platform of course depending on the platform you will choose the emulator that works best.
The scripts as well as starting the emulation will also load a config file which is universal, practically it should be compatible with all Emulators, the scripts created are 2 one for AGA games and the other for OCS/ECS games.
The two configs in addition to the settings for the two ChipSets also include a ROM and Floppy path, in the same path there is also the Emulator, all to keep all the data in one path.
I created a small video showing when mentioned, the system used in the video test is my AROS One, the emulator chosen was JanusUAE (more advanced and better working), also tested E-UAE and P-UAE, but they didn't satisfy me as much as JanusUAE.
The script once started will show the kick-start screen, the user will only have to run the emulator icon or use the function keys CTR-Alt+i and add the floppy, the emulator will do the rest, when the game will ask for more floppies you will have to redo the operation add floppy.

Found the solution also to start WHDLoad Games from icon on Wanderer, I'll follow with an exhaustive video
The tool in question is "TinyLauncher" for OS3, perfect for the purpose, it doesn't need Libraries and System Files, it allows from the GUI to create menus for Games, Demos and Music, and you start it by simply clicking an icon from the Wanderer, pretty much the same way as ADF as shown above in the video.
For TinyLauncher I got in touch with its Developer Michael GIBS to be allowed to install it on AROS One, after a few hours I got the answer via email where he gladly allowed me to use it, he also told me that he is of a certain age and Amiga enthusiast since ever, in the past I tested another good software of his "Amiga Boot Selector".
-
As peromitted here is the video that shows how WHDLoad games will start on AROS One!
Of course on AROS One there will be no KickStart or Games, that's what the user will have to do:
Before running, the games carefully read "All" the specific Readme also found in each folder, all this to
facilitate step-by-step installations.
For WHDLoad games the first time you start with TinyLauncher you have to create the Games Menu,
Read the attached TinyLauncher Readme and follow the on-screen instructions.
First you need to copy KickStart 1.3 and KickStart 3.1 to the path and name below:
SYS:Extras/Amiga-Games/DH0/Devs/Kickstarts/
KickStart must be renamed Kick34005.A500 and Kick40068.A1200 respectively.
ADF games must be copied to the Games-ADF folder
WHDLoad games must be copied to the Games-WHD folder instead.
If desired, subfolders can be created for each individual game.
No operating system is required, of course you can also load
ADF, and WHDLoad to start Workbench 1.3 and Workbench 3.1.
This is the video showing the ease of execution in the AROS environment running JanusUAE, which in turn runs what I set up in the script!

Having some spare time, I studied and put into practice the Amibridge procedure shown HERE (https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Aros/User/AmigaLegacy), which would then be the one used by IcarOS.
This is a not so simple procedure to do, Amibridge from IcarOS allows you to run OS3 software using AROS 68k or via AmigaForever.
My Idea instead is to create an Amibridge with all Standard Amiga OS's like OS 3.1, OS 3.9 and OS3.2
On AROS One there will only be the settings and the 68k files accompanying Janus-UAE, users will only have to copy the OS and KickStart into the appropriate folders.
To do this I am using JanusUAE as stated in the attached guide, but it should also work with E-UAE if it includes the "Coherency" " Wanderer Integration" functions.
At the moment I have experimented with OS3.1 and OS3.2 RTG and it worked perfectly, the RTG system is essential otherwise Amibridge will not work, the system must be light otherwise emulation would be slow, JanusUAE and E-UAE do not have the many functions and power of WinUAE which exploits the host hardware.
For OS 1.3, OS 2.1 systems, due to lack of RTG there will eventually be normal windowed emulations without integration on Wanderer.
(https://www.arosworld.org/infusions/forum/attachments/amibridge.jpg)
-
Did some tests to integrate OS 3.9 and OS 3.2 as well!
Everything works fine, but if a Guru happens, Janus-UAE will always go to Guru, whenever you start an Amibridge configuration.
This is solved if you start the executable "JanusUAE" without any configuration. Once this is done, all Amibridge scripts will work fine again.
Unfortunately JanusUAE like E-UAE (with the new Core goes in Guru) are outdated and very far from WinUAE, after a while running 68k applications hangs, it is solved by exiting the emulation, see attached video.
Nornmal Emulations (no Amibridge) are much more stable
https://youtu.be/tZyI_ld3Z84
-
Finished the AmiBridge function on AROS One x86, it was quite complicated to configure everything, but now it seems to be even more stable, I had to experiment, Janus-UAE is based on E-UAE sources, but for this purpose it turned out to be the best choice, on E-UAE in the GUI there are no Options to Configure AmiBridge.
The tricky thing will probably be for inexperienced users, AmiBridge only works if the Video Resolutions of AROS and OS3 are identical, which means that you have to install OS3 systems in RTG, which will be tricky for those who don't know how to fiddle with the Picasso 96 preference programme.
As for OS 1.3 and 2.1, since they cannot install Picasso96 they can be run in PAL mode on an AROS One window.
I attach a new video see running OS 3.0, 3.1, 3.2 and 3.9 with Amibridge and OS 1.3 and 2.1 in Window mode

Hello dear friend !
I just read on an amiga newspaper that aros one is able to be updated now instead of re installing ?
Please tell me more :) Thx a lot
Regards
-
The update is only for updating older versions, you cannot use it to update older versions of AROS One.
For example, the one you see on my site, "AROS One Update 2.6", is for updating "AROS One 2.5".
This is because the older versions have an old core and therefore the entire operating system must be replaced to update them.
yogib33r, for more information on AROS, please visit: https://www.arosworld.org/index.php
-
Okok thnx a lot :)
regards.
-
Hello hello :)
Yes ok as you give an update from 2.5 to 2.6 i understand.
But are you going to make the same from 2.6 to 2.7 ? For example. and after from 2.7 to 2.xx ...
I love your distro but the only bad point is about the update version as icaros, not really as icaros (network update ?) but it would be so cool due to the polish aros you done for ues :)
Have a wonderfull week-end.
-
If there are no changes in the Core, there will always be an Update for the previous version.
If the whole core changes, it is quicker to do a Clean Installation!
To do a Clean Installation just format and reboot the system with the DVD or pendrive !
I've never done an On-line update, I wouldn't know where to start, my update however is very convenient just a click away, moreover in the update you will also find a script to remove useless or obsolete things!

Created some new Skins for AmiFish, among them in the next version of AROS One you will find a Pawn Skin based on the AROS One Logo, see screenshot.
AmiFish is a nice Chess game updated to version 2.0, on AROS One there was already version 1.0.
AmiFish uses an external engine "Stockfish" currently maintained by a community of open-source programmers, since 2010 Stockfish has repeatedly occupied the top position in the main chess engine rankings !!!

I created Datatypes Descriptors for the MKV and WEBM video formats and the M4A audio format
It was not so easy as the dentifier was far from the beginning of the file and in many cases changed slightly, in the end I found the solution for everyone.
MKV is Matroska Video, while WEBM is a Google-sponsored project dedicated to creating a free, royalty-free video format.
M4A is nothing more than an MPEG-4 Audio file
Dimenicavo, these file formats, like all others you will see in the video, will be recognised automatically by AROS One even if they do not have an extension, see video.

The creation of Skins for the various System and Third Party Applications continues, of course it is hard work to create the themes for all the Applications installed on AROs One, except those for which a White GUI remains the best choice, see the small GUIs that have only Buttons.
All the skins are based on the new type configurations I created for Zune, for the uninitiated, Zune as well as MUI, have a configuration program that allows you to create a general type configuration for all the Applications that use it, for example if we give a Red background to a window, all the Applications that use that window will see it as Red.
If, on the other hand, we want each application to have its own "unique" preferences, Zune, MUI saves will have to be made from the MUI/Zune settings of the programme; this can also be done for those applications that do not show this item in the preferences, in which case this function is activated by enabling the appropriate Gadget.
I enclose a screenshot that shows some skins that make some GUIs more attractive and modern, and others such as HDToolBox indispensible since a too light or too dark background would not allow a good reading of the texts since in the same GUI the texts are both White and Black.
AROS One by Default will have the usual White GUI, then each user will be able to choose the various configurations from those available for each Application, to do this just click on the Icon of the chosen Configuration and that configuration will be stored as the default setting of the programme.
Replacing Backgrounds and Buttons will not require a reboot, the icon will run a script that will delete the old settings from both ENV and ENVARC.
(https://www.arosworld.org/infusions/forum/attachments/skins.jpg)
-
Besides being able to customise every single application, on the next version of AROS One also Wanderer will have its own default themes, I've created 4 "light" themes to make the Application windows more pleasant, to replace them just click on the icon and the script will do the rest, again no system reboot is necessary.
In the screenshot you can see the 4 themes created on Zune that will be used by default by all Applications, except those where the user has already chosen and saved the "custom" theme.
MUI/Zune works like this, if there is a preference the Application will ignore the system setting, furthermore customised Zune configurations for individual Applications can be edited and saved without any problems, while customising and saving Wanderer configurations is more complicated, to do this you first need to delete the configuration file in ENV and in ENVARC.

Almost there, AROS One 2.7 if there are no unforeseen events will be released in the coming weeks.
In this new version I've set as default a ZUNE/MUI configuration with a "White marble" background that will be visible on all System Applications and most third party applications, 90% of the AROS One software makes use of ZUNE/MUI.
I write ZUNE/MUI because many applications have been ported from the Amiga and therefore always carry the MUI entry in the Menus.
Of course, as mentioned above, the user can replace this Zune configuration by simply clicking on a pre-configured Icon, where he can also choose to set the standard White default of Aros One, a native AROS Grey background, or a slightly striped White background.
For some Applications such as HDToolBox and others that you see in the screenshot the general Zune configuration change will not work because these Applications have a custom ZUNE/MUI configuration, to change this requires a special procedure, explained in the previous post.
From the screenshot you can see the change I made on the InstallAROS GUI and the AROS One Info GUI!

From previous versions I had added "Early Startup" in the GRUB Menu for Emergences to run uCommander from the Shell.
uCommander is a small Menu that allows you to run some Applications including Dopus4, this is to be able to intervene in case AROS doesn't start, most of the functions of Dopus4 are available even without the support of the started Operating System.
Now, as someone had difficulty understanding how to start uCommander I have modified the string and it should now be better understood, see screenshot.
Any advice is welcome to improve the string so that it is better understood.

I have been notified by retrofaza of some problems with 3 Games included in AROS One, these Games are part of the Contrib package, and for some reason have not been recompiled correctly in the latest version of the Contrib package.
The games in question are LBreakout2, Soliton/Freecell and NewMasterMind, for "LBreakout2" I recovered the previous version that works fine, for "Soliton/Freecell" instead I managed to find a newer version on Aros Archive, where I totally renewed the graphics, new backgrounds and Card Sets in high resolution in HQ PNG format (see screenshot), the originals were low resolution native Amiga IFF, also the MOS and OS4 version. 1 have the old IFF format Card Sets.
On Soliton, I have also created 3 Scripts that allow you to change the background and Card Sets of the game on the fly, and added more Catalogs.
Concerning NewMasterMind actually there was no Crash, in the recompiled version of the Contrib the data was missing in the Icon Tooltypes, place where the game saves the configuration, not being able to save the configuration crashed the game.
(https://www.arosworld.org/infusions/forum/attachments/soliton_1.jpg)
For Italian users, but probably also for Spanish users, I have manually created a set of Italian Cards in good quality, in particular the 'Neapolitan Cards'.
In Italy each region has a different pack of cards, but the Neapolitan ones are the most well-known and used not only in Italy but also in many countries where there is an Italian community.

At the request of a RasVoja and with the permission of the developer I ported the "Crystal" native OS 4.1 skin to AROS One.
The covering has been done manually Pixel by Pixel with the addition of some MUI/Zune Gadgets not present in the theme, the only particular change has been done on the window bar, eliminated the round part because Wanderer doesn't support transparencies yet at least on VESA screens, I didn't have the world to test them on a PC with well supported native Video Card.
Crystal can be set automatically by simply clicking on the appropriate Icon via scripts in Prefs in the 'Themes' folder. As with the other 35 Themes available on AROS One, the scripts will also install the Background and Pointer el MUI/Zune Preferences (App windows).
If instead you want to install only the Windows Theme you can use either the "Appearance" App, or "ThemePrefs", the latter allows you to preview the themes, with these 2 Apps you can also see and install other extra Themes available on AROS One

From AROS One 2.7 (soon to be released) USB images will be created on 8GB Pendrives, by now AROS One with included 'Development' software has exceeded 3.7 GB space no longer supported by 4GB PenDrives.
On the positive side, the user can now add data to the pendrive, perhaps to test software or games.
New Theme created for AROS One name "ArosOne-BlueWave", see screenshot !

On the next AROS One there will also be Dopus5 Magellan which like Dopus4 to use it just click on its Icon, path SYS:Tools
Improved configurations of both Dopus4 and Dopus5 Magellan, both have the same configuration and both will be able to recognise any file even if it has no extension.
Dopus4 can now also display TXT and exe files, in the same way as Dopus4 OS3 version, thus solving the problem mentioned some time ago HERE (https://ae.arosworld.org/index.php?topic=478.msg3983#msg3983)
-
For those who prefer Magellan, from the next version of AROS One, Magellan can not only be run from Wanderer, but can also be started autonomously.
In practice, there is no difference between the two modes; Magellan still makes use of Wanderer preferences even when started autonomously.
In practice, when Magellan displays a file in "Icon" mode, it will use Wanderer's settings, whereas if Magellan is used in "Detail" mode, it will use its own settings.
Example, if a Music, Graphic or Video etc file is clicked in "Icon" mode, the file will be executed by the default tool in Wanderer's Def_Icon
If on the other hand you click on the same File, but in "Detail" mode, then the tool set to Magellan will display the file.
Also in "Detail" on Magellan you will be able to see "All Archives" supported by AROS One, as if they were normal folders, just click on the archive file LHA, LZX, ZIP, RAR, 7Zip, bz2 etc... to turn it into a normal folder.
This function is also available on Dopus4, but only on the Amiga version, on the AROS x86 version it is unfortunately not available.
In addition, LHA and ZIP archives can be created on Magellan with a simple click
A few demonstration videos on what is described will follow.
