Airsoft Softwair, the hardest working men in code business, are proud to present version 2.2 of the hURL plugin for Hollywood. hURL is the ultimate multi-protocol data transfer plugin for Hollywood which allows Hollywood scripts to transfer data using all kinds of different network protocols including full SSL support.

Version 2.2 is a minor update for the Amiga platforms but a major update for Linux, macOS and Windows. On those platforms hURL now comes in two different flavours: A version that uses host operating system's native SSL stack and a version that uses a statically linked version of OpenSSL which can be useful on older operating systems (e.g. Windows 7 or macOS x64) where the system's native SSL stack is no longer able to do secure handshaking with servers. Also, the hURL version that uses macOS' native SSL stack doesn't support all protocols because of a limitation in libssh2. For example, the hURL version using macOS' native SSL stack doesn't support the SSH, SFTP and SCP protocols. When using the hURL version that comes with a statically linked OpenSSL, however, these protocols will work fine on macOS as well.

hURL is now available for free download from the official Hollywood portal. Thanks to Hollywood's cross-platform plugin system versions for AmigaOS3 (m68k), AmigaOS 4, MorphOS, Linux (ppc, arm, arm64, x86, x64), macOS (ppc, x64, arm64), Windows (x86, x64), Android (arm, arm64), and iOS (arm, arm64) are provided.
