Carsten Siegner has released a new beta version of his desktop publishing application Calimero. You can download it via the following link: Calimero_beta_0.7

From Friday 27th of February until Sunday the 1stof March 2015, the Amiga Club Osnabrück and the Amiga Club Steinfurt will be hosting another user meeting.

If you are interested in MorphOS, you are welcome to join us. In addition to various Pegasos systems, you can expect to see Mac mini, PowerMac, iBooks, PowerMac G5 and Efika systems. Of course, other hardware platforms are very welcome as well with at least one AmigaOS4 system announced to be present .

If you want to bring your own hardware, please inform us as soon as possible because the space for external users is limited. Of course you can always just stop by for a visit if you like.

I know a laptop running MorphOS takes no big space and is portable, but I still need to know about the number of attendees. So if you are interested, please contact me as soon as possible.

The participation is as always free of charge.

An upcoming feature of Calimero 0.4: A Powerpoint (.ppt) loader.

The screenshot shows the early days of this new development. After extensive research, I became familiar with the structure of the PPT file format.

The parsing of pure text found in ppt files is rather trivial whereas parsing pictures is more challenging, but I found sufficient information about how to do so on the internet.

More information will be shared in the near future.
