Software News

This is an announcement of the immediate availability of version 0.62 of Cinnamon Writer. Cinnamon Writer is a compact and efficient word processor developed especially with Amiga and Amiga-like systems in mind. Cinnamon Writer runs on AOS 4.0 and 4.1.



New version include:

- Major speed optimization
- Added Find/Replace functionality
- Selectable document sizes
- Resizable document area
- New document ruler (WIP)
- Several minor additions improve user experience

Please visit the homepage to try the new version. The homepage also contains screenshots of this version and previous versions. Furthermore you will be able to download fonts that can be used in Cinnamon Writer and other programs
I strive to improve Cinnamon Writer for each new version. Therefore, if you have any ideas or suggestion to improve the program or if you have discovered a bug, please contact me.
Cinnamon Writer is free to download and use. If you like it please consider a donation. Donations will be used to attract gifted programmers and graphics artists to improve Cinnamon Writer? Or will be included as an integral part of my beer budget, of course depending on the size of the donation

ENJOY!

Easy guys..

@Desler
Looking forward to try this when/if I get my A1 fixed. Unfortunately no mouse works anymore, neither PS2 or USB (even via powered hub).

Made a small donation, cool to see some original Amiga development:)

desler,

I know it's a WIP s far as printing goes. but . . . my Workbench printer is simply Postscript. But CW calls up gs and then fails to print. Workbench printing in other programs goes OK.

In a future release I hope you can make it possible to resize the viewable page area. Right now there's a lot of wasted screen space at higher resolutions. A 12 point font is very hard to read at 1680x1050.

It's really starting to look and behave very professionally, though. Good luck as you keep at it.

Paul

About the viewable screen space: Try to press the little hand icon in the slider (under the + and - sign) and drag the slider right or left

@desler

Thanks Desler. That's what I was looking for.

EDIT: I tried Cinnamon on my PegII/MorphOS and it wouldn't run. With OS4emu it did actually attempt to run and asked for the Cinnamon: assign. Everything runs nicely on my PegII using OS4.1 for Peg.

@desler,

I bet that was somewhere in the guide file, wasn't it?

Works well, anyway. Thanks.
