agreed.. indeed it would be the best solution. Also on Windows a lot of programs are using QT

I was going to guess something along those lines; if 4 beta's code is already ported, it will be easier to integrate the changes to 4 when it is released as a stable version.

Thanks Hyperion for porting this program!

@samo79

Well the reason is that once Timberwolf comes out, we would want the latest version of it. Updating the source code now to 3.6 and later to 4.0 is a waste of time, so we opted to go for 4.0 directly as the better alternative.

@number6

My unofficial view on AmigaOS GUI toolkits ís that they all suck dead hamsters through a garden hose. Compared to modern UI toolkits from other platforms, they lack in functionality, customization features, and about everything else.

They all of their flaws, and they hardly have any strengths. Making a list of all of it would be a waste of time. Personally I consider the list of Reaction to be the shortest one, but I am quite sure MUI supporters will chime in and say otherwise. It's personal opinion anyway, so you're welcome to yours, as I am to mine.

Personally, my favorite pick for a future GUI tool kit would be Qt. It's very functional, customizable in a decent fashion (i.e. through themes, not through the exchange of every single frame, bitmap and what have you. It has good developer support, good functionality, and a GUI builder.

But I guess this is going to be "an insult to the community" again..

@tfrieden

Hi, just a question

Is there any specific reason to go directly into the 4.0 branch instead to choose the more stable 3.6.x ?

The actual 3.6.x is really stable and tested, perhaps it need less time to update over Shiretoko

We're currently updating the Timberwolf source code to Firefox 4.0 and the changes are quite severe. As such, I would guess that most bugs you find now will be invalidated by the new version.

I would suggest to wait until we can release something based on the 4.0 code.

Don't try to bring facts in this discussion, it's generally not well received. :)

A typical troll comment. A statement that doesn't say anything. It's just there to incite answers of the flamy kind. Well done.

For what it's worth, my recollection of the MUI debate was that it was supposed to be ported to OS 4 by Jens Langner, and no hardware was required. Of course, other people might tell a different story.

(oh why does this forum require me to wait to correct a simple spelling mistake?)

@MichaelMerkel

A new alpha will still take some time. We are currently updating the source code to the Firefox 4.0 beta 1 code. The jump in the major version number means a lot of adaption work going on, since a lot of the internal structure has changed, subsystems have been completely replaced by others etc.

Add to that that we're both busy with the x1000 development, so we don't have a lot of spare time to do Timberwolf. Progress will be slow for a while.

@billt

True, the A3000 is supported as well.

@Sveta

Quote:

"DeveloperPPC (rare) equipped Amiga 2000 (A2000)"

It doesn't matter what Wikipedia says. There are only three machines supported:

- A1200
- A3000
- A4000

If it works on any other machine, that's a coincidence and not intentional. The A500 is certainly not among the supported devices.

As I already told you in private mail.

I was wrong by the way, MapROM needs to be *off* not on. Otherwise, the mapping mechanism isn't available to bootloader.

Please, how adjust OS 4.0 Classic kernel + loader for Developer PPC?

OS4 for classic does not, and will not, support the A500 or A2000, and will not support pre-series developer PPC boards.

Sorry, but that's a fact that won't change.

@All
Nice to see peoples enthusiasm to take OWB further,

@TSK
Quote:

I think Sand-lab website even says it should be easy to turn OWB into a library (if I remember). Could somebody turn OWB into shared library or datatypes class ? That way anybody could build their own browser around it. Or use even Multiview.

The ability to embed a simple browser into for example a hollywood project would be cool, I could see a use for that.

Hi guys,

This is my first post here so here I go :)

I decided to release something I composed in 1997, using at that time my favorite Amiga's OctaMED Sound Studio music tracker. If you have some free time, take a listen and drop me a line Music style varies from BreakBeat to Electro, from BreakDance to BreakBeat Goa Trance...

@Cool_amigaN

You can coold down the case only by increasing the airflow through the case. Nothing else has any effect. (Law of physics)

I think you should simply leave passively cooled CPU, M9, RAM and PCI radeon just like they are.

If one wants to cool the components better, one could build tunnels inside the case to direct the air flow.

+ remember that every fan also consumes electricity and transforms the energy to heat. So the system will generate more heat after one ads a cooler, so better have only one fan on the air flow exit and one on the intake..

While once upon a time I were a real ARexxWizzard (tm), I'll really want to play with Python. But from pure lazyness I still mostly use ARexx...

Last night I had the strange idea to use Python, the ARexx module and PEB's Visualguimaker to build some utility. Maybe I should get more sleep and take my pills...
