I've downloaded and ported the latest discord plugin for pidgin. The author startet to implement an authorisation process using a QR code, but it is not finished yet.
As far as I know, discord wants to make a special authorisation, when you login with a certain device the first time. It seems it uses CAPTCHAs and/or QR codes for this.
I don't know, how we can handle this as I don't have a discord account.

Yes, I can confirm this. I guess, you need newer files. Please give me some time to make a package for you.

Hmm - the question is: When do you get the DSI? After you confirmed the AmiCygnix settings? Or later, when the display is already open?

Maybe you can try an other display driver.

Or you need a more more current AmiCygnix SDK. I could give you the latest includes and libs of libaos4util.
Which additionally libs did you use? Only libX11.a?

On the other hand, I had no crashes so far.

Well done! Works without problems

To be compatible with other AmiCygnix packages and to have a proper version control, I recommend to use the files provided with all other packages.
Here are some ready to use files you can include in your package: memacs-files.lha.

All files expect this:
- Software directory must be : "Cygnix:Software/JASSPA-MEmacs-20091011"
- icon file "me_gnome_48.png" must be in "Cygnix:CygnixPPC/share/pixmaps"

The archive includes following files:

- "Install"
This is a standard installer script for AmiCygnix applications. Only a few changes were necessary. Just have a look at the first lines.
The script expects, that most data is stored in their final destination drawers like "Software/JASSPA-MEmacs-20091011".

- "jasspa-memacs.desktop"
Should be in "CygnixPPC/share/applications". Creates an entry in the desktop panel menu.

- "jasspa-memacs.lnk"
Should finally be in "Cygnix:Home/root/.idesktop" and in "install-data/.idesktop" in your package. Creates an icon on the desktop.

- "jasspa-memacs.pc"
Should be in "CygnixPPC/lib/pkgconfig". Contains data about the installed program for version control. Increase "release" in every new release of a same version (also the #app_release variable in "Install")

- "Start_JASSPA-MEmacs_Desktop.bat" + "Start_JASSPA-MEmacs_Standalone.bat"
Two new launch scripts for standalone and desktop

That's strange. The strerror() function IS included in the newlib and the clib2 library.

For some reason I was under the impression that for AmiCygnix I must link with newlib (default). Or, can I link with clib2 instead? I guess so... just keep all my compiler flags but use -mcrt=clib2 ?

As the name of the lib says ("aos4util_newlib"), you only can use the AmiCygnix libs with newlib.

Great to hear, that you're working on an AmiCygnix app

. What's the name of it?

The setitimer () function is not included. It would be very tricky to implement. So you have to make a workaround.

I wish there would be a more up to date AmiCygnix SDK. Many things have changed since 1.0.

@rjd324

This library contains functions not avaialble in newlib.library, but also replaces functions, that are not compatible enough to Unix. Additionally there are some dummy functions like fork() and some utility functions especially for AmiCygnix.

For example the opendir() function cannot open the root directory "/" but the aos4util_newlib version can.

Currently I've revised and bugfixed the library completely and will be part of the next update 1.7.

maybe the first assign is not needed ?? I dont recall modify it manually...

Yes, please delete the first assign. I think this was manually added. The installer script only changes the lines between ";BEGIN Cygnix" and ";END Cygnix".

Strange. The assign AmiCygnix uses is "Cygnix:" and not "AmiCygnix:". Did you make some changes in the user-startup by hand?

The entry in the user-startup must be like this:

;BEGIN Cygnix
assign Cygnix: "your path"
execute Cygnix:s/Cygnix-Startup
;END Cygnix

Hi Dino,

the only information I could find is in the file "Class.c" in the directory "Examples/AHI/Low-level/PTdatatype" of the AmigaOS4 SDK.

DTA_ObjName and DTA_UserData is used there. The question is, if the data is written into file, when you save it with the ILBM datatype.

Re: X11 Forwarding via AmiCygnix?

Being able to use remote X11 apps on a local display greatly improve the ability to use AmigaOS on a everyday life basis.

I have tried and succeed to open remote apps on the Amicygnix as explained in this thread, however that was a bit tricky, and I do not understand how to open such an app on a dedicated window on the workbench instead of opening that app in the Amigygnix desktop (see screenshot above by @smf), much like you are able to use Amicygnix apps such as Abiword in "standalone" mode. Do you know how to do that?

Could include in a next Amicygnix release:
- a guide on how to use remote apps with Amicygnix
- a new GUI to manage allowed IPs instead of editing "Cygnix:CygnixPPC/etc/X0.hosts"?

As a further improvement, I would love to see more integration between SSHterm by Fredrik Wikström and Amicygnix.

It would be great to simply type the name of an app in SSHterm while connected on a remote Linux host and see that app appearing in a dedicated and re-sizable window on the workbench using the Amicygnix X11 display capabilities.

A very nice idea to improve the handling of remote apps! I could add an menu item to the workbench windows to edit the permissions of this display.

And I could create a start script to launch an empty display.

I cannot test it here, because I have no Linux machine, but you should already be able to launch an remote application with SSHTerm. Of course you must do this by hand. Maybe there is a solution to make this by script??

No, there is no terminal available for AmiCygnix so far.

The easiest way to launch a Linux application on an AmiCygnix display is this:

1. To add permission to run an application on (e.g.) AmiCygnix display 0, add a new line to "Cygnix:CygnixPPC/etc/X0.hosts" and add the IP of your Linux machine.

2. Launch the application (e.g. xterm) like this on your Linux machine:

xterm --display=Amiga-IP:0

Sylpheed uses OpenSSL 0.98d. It's funny, that this outdated version works and the more current gnutls 2.12 not. I think gnutls uses a higher level TLS and old OpenSSL falls back to simple SSL - but I don't know exactly.

Looked again into the base package and into a test installation: The curl cert file is there! Maybe your archive is corrupt? Please check again for "curl-ca-bundle.crt" in "Cygnix:CygnixPPC/share/curl".

There is a TLS client included in the base package called "gnutls-cli". With this tool you can see what happens while creating your SSL/TLS connection and also send and receive data.

Open an amiga shell and type:

gnutls-cli hostname:995 (Maybe you have an other port number.)

There is also a second command for debugging:

gnutls-cli-debug hostname:995

Claws-Mail uses the gnutls 2.12.24 library for SSL/TLS. It searches for cert files like this:

* If the variable "Cygnix/SSL_CERT_FILE" is set to a cert collection file, it uses this file (path must be unix style).

* If the variable is not set, it takes the file "Cygnix:CygnixPPC/gtk2.24/share/curl/curl-ca-bundle.crt" or "Cygnix:CygnixPPC/share/curl/curl-ca-bundle.crt". A file "Cygnix:CygnixPPC/share/curl/curl-ca-bundle.crt" is provided with the AmiCygnix base package V1.5.

Maybe it helps to replace the file with a newer one.
But I guess, that you a need newer version of gnutls. Current version is 3.6.13. If a cert file is too old, Claws-Mail asks for a permission to use the received cert and stores it in the settings (see menu "Extras").

My port of gnutls will be updated in the next AmiCygnix release.
