I found this in ARexxReference:


I added the say command to confirm it works.

I've been using a NETGEAR WNCE2001 ethernet to wifi adapter on my Amigas
for years. There is no driver or setup program required; setting are done through
your browser. There is also the NETGEAR WNCE3001 which is dual band.

@colinw
Thanks for the clarification.

@salass00
In the current public SDK there does seem to be room for confusion about path sizes:

limits.h in clib2 has " #define PATH_MAX 1024 "
limits.h in clib2 has "define _POSIX_PATH_MAX 255 "

sys/limits.h in newlib has " #define PATH_MAX 1024 "

dos.h has this:
/* Recommended space to hold any AmigaDOS UTF-8 path specification. (in bytes) */
#define MAX_DOS_PATH 4000

I'm a DOpus4 user myself and thought I'd point out a simpler method of accomplishing archiving seperate directories.

In the button editor select AmigaDOS and enter this line:
LHA -a -x -r -X a "{d}{ou}.lha" {o}

Select "CD Source" and "Do all files"

You use a lot more options in your script but I don't think that should affect
the result of doing it the above way. However, if you want to archive a directory's icon along with the directory a script migh be easier.

It opens it's window on my X5000. For some strange reason, my X5000 uses CD1: as the first CD instead of CD0: when the first blank CD-RW is inserted. Each time a CD is removed and another one inserted the CD # is incremented (e.g. CD1: CD2: CD3: etc.)

I have AmiDVD version 1.51 installed on my system and use this procedure to get the AmiDVD window to open:
1. Boot or reboot the system.
2. Change the DRIVE tooltype in the AmiDVD icon to CD1 (DRIVE=CD1)
3. Insert a blank CD-RW in the CD drive.
4. Double-click the AmiDVD

I haven't tried to burn a CD since installing OS4FE update1 on my system and have not yet installed update2 so I don't know yet if the above procedure will work with update2.

True. OS4Depot lists amigans.net as the contact point, which is why I'm posting here. Hopefully I'll get the attention of one of the OS4Depot staff soon.

I checked my files and I think I might have used the password at a different site previously. It may not have been hacked from OS4Depot and the fact that I can't log in there could be a coincidence. I just need to change my OS4Depot password or get it removed.

The person who sent the email apparently doesn't know I'm an Amiga user because he threatened to release compromising pictures and my old monitor, Amiga and phone don't have cameras.

Today I got a blackmail email with my OS4Depot password mentioned. I am now unable to log on at OS4Depot to change my password. I'm not sure how a hacker got my password but I need to change it. My username is xenic. Help please!

@nbache
Maybe I wasn't explicit enough. With Flexcat you would do the following:

Add a new entry in the middle of the CD file (.cd).
Bump the version number in the CD file (#version not the AmigaDOS $VER).
Update the CT (.ct) files with Flexcat.
Use Flexcat to produce a new command file (.c) and header file (.h).
Use Flexcat to produce a blank CT file for translators.
Compile the CT files to catalogs with Flexcat.
Compile the command file and header file with the main program.

I do all the above in a makefile.

If you don't bump the #version in the CD file then you are right that old catalogs won't work properly. The entire catalog creation should probably be done with Flexcat if you are going to add new entries in the middle of the CD file somewhere.

My only problem with Flexcat is that more recent versions get picky with elipsus (...) warnings and return a warning code (5) which causes the OS4 make command to stop the compile. As a result, if you are using Flexcat in a makefile then you need to preceed the Flexcat command with a dash (e.g. -Flexcat) so make won't stop the whole compile.

Flexcat will update CT files with new entries in the CD file. The new entries are placed in the same position in the CT files as they occur in the CD file. No need to add entries at the bottom of the CD file. The new entries are added to the CT files and marked as ***NEW*** so a translator can simply search in a good editor and add translations at the ***NEW*** locations.

FlexCat myprogram.cd swedish.ct NEWCTFILE swedish.new

If you update the version in the CD file, it should be copied to the CT files so that old catalogs won't be loaded by a program.

If you read my previous version of this post disregard it. I overlooked an old version of saved prefs which caused AmigaAmp 3.27 to use mpega.library which doesn't appear to work on my system.

My mpega.library is version 2.4 and is the mpega.library clone v 1.7. Is there another version that I should use??

This "too wide to read" issue when using Odyssey makes Amigans.net almost unusable on an Amiga. Hopefully we can find a fix. I'm writing this to see if the "Preview" is also too wide. The preview is wrapping the text to fix the window and adjusts to the window size on the fly when I change the Odyssey window size.

I see that the above text was wrapped at 200 characters. If there is some
default line wrapping setting, maybe lowering it to 80 could be a temp fix?

@salass00
Does that mean some of the current OS4 programs on OS4Depot will not work or become noticably slower on a Tabor?

Is it really necessary to specifically target the Tabor processor for an OS4.x program to work on Tabor? If not, why bother. None of the OS4 programs I've worked on specifically target any one PPC processor.

I'm not sure why the test doesn't make any sound on my X1000 but it could be my settings. Here are my AHI settings:

Driver: hdaudio.audio version 6.22
Music unit: Unit 0:Hifi 16 bit stereo++ (44100 Hz)
Unit 0: hdaudio:HiFi 16 bit Stereo++ (44100 Hz)

The device.audio that shows 'Unit 0' in the AHI 'Music unit' settings is version 6.22.

I also have the Mixer docky installed in AmiDock.

@Capehill
I'm using an X1000 with the builtin sound (hdaudio.audio) and I don't hear any sound at all. I'm running the "a.out" program from a shell and the output in the shell indicates that it's playing sound but I don't hear anything. AmigaAMP, TuneNet, Multiview and other players work fine on my system.

@Capehill
You could check out "audioevolution" at OS4Depot. It's primarily a mixer but the PDF docs have a "real-time" section. I've never used it but it might be worth a look.

@samo79
You need to run the debug version of the program and provide the crash log using that version in order to show the the program function and line number of the crash. The normal version of the program has too much data stripped in order to make the program smaller.
