Software News : WookieChat 2.9 now available for AmigaOS 3.x, AmigaOS 4.0, MorphOS and AROS.

Lots of changes, in particular:

- Pasting delay, to send lines of text slowly to prevent disconnection
- Charset support works better now, using a Find Best codesets.library function
- Tabs can be sorted alphabetically now, a side effect is that channels and private tabs are grouped together

Read More....


- The Main Settings window looks a lot nicer now, I put a lot of effort into making MUI layout things nicely
- Less unnecessary refreshing of the display happens when you switch tabs, which feels a lot nicer on slower machines
- Fixed a problem where heavy incoming traffic was being written outside of the receive buffer (whoops)

.. Plus many more weird bugfixes.

Click here for a full list of changes in v2.9

What is it?

WookieChat allows you to connect to Internet Relay Chat networks (IRC) and chat with other users in a text medium in real-time. Some of the server groups are preconfigured to join an Amiga chat channel upon sucessful connection. Executables are provided for AmigaOS 3.x,4.0, MorphOS and AROS. WookieChat is uncrippled SHAREWARE.

Download it from the WookieChat homepage, and soon from aminet.net and os4depot.net.

Fantastic! Nice to know that despite your other programming commitments, you carry on updating this Wookiechat.

I hope people remember to thank you by tipping your cookie jar. - You deserve it

Thanks!

8 donations so far this month. It's been a great leg up for me, thanks guys. I'm still recovering from the fortnight of "never ending $200-300 (nzd) bills"... we had to use my entire overdraft and part of my credit card. but I've gradually wittled down my debt. Only half an overdraft to go now!

Thank you Robert Dickinson for the $50 + $15 donations!

Nice!

I didn?t know wookiechat was shareware. Some of yesterdays donation should have gone towards buying a licence. And the rest should have been the start of a much needed get-jahc-to-change-his-home-page-picture-bounty.

It's noncrippled shareware! but yeah theres no keyfiles or anything, so I guess its freeware. Six of one, or half a dozen of the other, really. :)

Hi,

nice work jahc

But - cant still not used "non tabbed buttons"
on OS3.x.
Get by activating this an cyberguard hit,
and by ever chanell change too .. and if i will back
to tabbed buttons, the prg. freeze.

It is nice and work except the problem above very good.
You musst not fix this issue, better take your time to
improve the OS4 version *GG*.

Regards

Apparently you are not allowed to mention MorphOS or AROS on this site.
