OS 3.9: Boing Bag 2 available now!
20. March 2002: H&P is proud to announce the availability of Boing Bag 2
for AmigaOS 3.9. Boing Bag 3.9-2 contains many bug fixes, small
enhancement and new features in the areas multimedia (AMPlifier, PlayCD,
sound datatype), shell, Workbench (Find, AsyncWB, UnArc, XAD v10),
ReAction and harddisk support. The Boing Bag is delivered in three parts:
The main archive with all the files needed to update AmigaOS 3.9, the
translations into different languages and the contributions (CDDB library,
OpenURL, ClassAction). We want to thank all people that made it possible.
Please download at least the main archive and the translation(s) for the
language(s) you desire. The contributions are optional.
Note: This Update requires AmigaOS 3.9 with Boing Bag 1. AmigaOS XL users
can install the Boing Bag 2 directly.

OS3.9 Boingbag 2 available : Comment 10 of 125 | ANN.lu |
Posted by thanks H&P on 20-Mar-2002 20:24 GMT | This was a nice surprise :).
A mixed bag of comments:
My guess is that is this effort has partly been made with OS 4.0 in mind,
there are a lot small refinements and enhancements that really should have
been part of OS 3.9, had H&P had more than 1 month to complete the OS update :).
H&P has made Reaction GUIs for AMPlifier and Benchtrash, and a new GUI for
Find. I guess these will go towards making the OS 4.0 a pleasureable experience :)
There are a lot a stuff that I would have found useful back when I actually
owned an Amiga:
- Boot menu in 31 kHZ (no flicker fixer in A4000 with RTG gfxcard...)
- New exec! (Could this be Harry Pirunen's code, exec44? Very likely.
Complete with ShapeShifter initializtion code.. :))
Also it's nice to see that they've been trying to integrate stuff that's been
available on Aminet for about a decade now :) :
- Picture datatype prefs program!
- Sound datatype can now use AHI :) (wow, at last)...
There are many other goodies in the package that I won't mention.
But all in all I have to say that this update has implemented features
that are long overdue... |
