Is my PetMate #Amiga #AmigaOS3 #AmigaOS port a reaction App ? Well I would say it's 20% "reaction" which is only a set of extended class to #BOOPSI object model. Let's not forget BOOPSI is here since OS2.0 and " that gadget class you can extend" is something 100% from commodore (like datatypes that are part of the same system.). So when I extend a gadget like the zoomable canvas where you draw or the character chooser, it doesn't include or depend of anything at all from "reaction". Also when Commodore/Amiga put BOOPSI in place, they tried to keep some sort of retro-compatibility with their previous UI API: "GadTools".... -> (continue next post

"GCC Pack" is designed to simplify the installation of GCC under AmigaOS. The package contains an installer that installs the GCC 2.95.3 compiler on the hard drive, ready for use.

The author @rastport expressly points out that compiling on real Amigas is only for enthusiasts. It is significantly faster to work on a modern system with a cross-compiler, which would also be a up-to-date version - GCC 2.95.3 dates from 2000.

"Amiga Image Storage System" (AISS) is a system for managing toolbar images. Following the initial release last January, developer Martin Merz has now published an update of AISS on Aminet. The new version 1.1 contains around 1,400 additional pictograms and PNG files without metadata, which promises a significant improvement in the speed at which images are loaded.
