The CygnusED webpage is online via a new URL - http://www.cygnused.de. CygnusED is currently produced by Olaf Barthel and is one of the most popular text editors for the Amiga. Albeit slowly, the development of the program is still continuing. We'd like to get your opinion and thoughts as to what features you'd wish for future versions of CygnusEd. Please let us know your ideas by writing to us in the support forum of CygnusEd's new webpages so that we can consider supporting them for the program's future releases.

Just in time for New Year there's another major update to our Amiga Software Database (ASD) at Amiga Future. In the last few weeks we've added and edited several hundred entries, and nearly 1000 new scans. Almost 5000 scanned images of original software/application packaging, manuals, etc. are now included in more than 3700 entries of the database. The next steps will include further additions of CD-ROMs, and (Cover-) Discs and Magazines, an estimated 2000 entries more will be available. Enjoy viewing the largest database of application software and literature related to the Amiga! By the way, issue 100 of the Amiga Future magazine is now available. It's ready and waiting for you to buy it at selected Amiga dealers or directly from our online shop.

eGame now works fully on MorphOS! eGame allows you to keep an easily searchable list of games for playing – rather than having to hunt through lots of folders using Workbench/Wanderer/Ambient. Please note that eGame is only able to start games that you can already run by double-clicking them.

Yet another image manipulation program written in Hollywood? At the first glance A.H.I.W. by MorgueSoft is exactly this. Its hand-drawn GUI, non system friendly localization and set of basic options are typical for this class of software. There are two exceptions however. The first one is extensive documentation in PDF format. The second are a few interesting filters, not to be found in competing software. Examples are "old photo" filter, which is much more than just ordinary sepia, and conversion to binary black and white image with Floyd-Steinberg dithering. The program may be downloaded from the download section.

Since today there is an update available, so Roadshow can also be used on MorphOS. Roadshow is much faster than the internal TCP/IP stack of MorphOS 3.1. Please note, that with MorphOS a manual installation of roadshow is required. The supplied installation script will not run under MorphOS. The user should therefore be familiar with the operating system. The manually installed Roadshow is now directly usable and requires no further intervention to boot. New sample files for the network usage on the Pegasos / Pegasos II, and for Apple hardware are also included. The update can be downloaded for free on the support page of Roadshow.
