I would like to know too? I'm confused, as far as i get it: 1) afxgroups built the first version and keeps the original up-to-date with patches to the source 2) joerg built another one with his own patches which seems to make it work better (at all) on low spec systems Why don't the two join forces? |

Re: OWB 1.6
Joerg has a slower but more memory efficient allocation system, thus making it more suitable for <=256MB systems.
And dynamical linking is present in Joerg version only atm. Both these are afaik. I suppose that bug-fixes from both developers propgate both ways (at least that's my impression based on dissapearance of some of the bugs in both versions) Jack |

Re: OWB 1.6
I'd liked to have tried this out on my A1 but I'm confused as to what needs installing etc.

[Changed the xad_7z link as the one currently on OS4Depot is slow - Chris] |

Quote: It's painfully slow though.. I've started porting OWB to AmigaOS4, in 1.7 it's using the OS4 font engine instead of libfontconfig and libfreetype. Especially if your FONTS:_TrueType directory is on a slow partition, for example a FFS one, it makes a big difference. |

Re: OWB 1.6
Whoah! It's much much faster now (1.7)!
Still hangs on some sites though (100% CPU, doing seemingly nothing), but all in all I'm impressed. |

Re: OWB 1.7
Thanks, jahc, for that that toolbar. I can see the ARexx port allowing for a lot of nice third-party UI possibilities if more commands are added.

Re: OWB 1.7
Since a lot of people seem to have problems with the fonts I've uploaded an archive with the .font and .otag files for the core fonts. Check the included readme on how to extract and install the TTF files.

Re: OWB 1.7
Looking good.
Any chance of getting rid of all references to Cygnix: and replacing them by progdir. It still comes up wanting to find a Cygnix: assign. |

I couldn't complete a post though, as I could select the preview button, but not the submit one. |
