We would like to wish all AmigaOS 4 users a very nice St. Nicholas day and we want to treat you this day with the freeware tool called AmiArc. This is a tool for packing and unpacking archives for AmigaOS 4.x. If you have suggestions for improvements then we'll hope that you send us a mail.

Replicate the Windows Alt+Tab shortcut.

When you hold down Alt and press Tab, a window will popup showing thumbnails
of all the screens that are currently open. Pressing Tab again (while still
holding down Alt) will cycle to the next thumbnail. Releasing Alt will then
make your Amiga switch to that screen!
