Airsoft Softwair, the hardest working men in code business, are proud to announce the immediate availability of version 2.0 of the XML plugin for Hollywood. This plugin, previously known as XML Parser, was one of the first Hollywood plugins and has now received a major update with many new features.
The biggest new feature in version 2.0 of the Hollywood XML plugin is that you can now serialize Hollywood tables to XML documents with just a single function call. In the same way you can also deserialize XML documents to Hollywood tables with just a single function call. This is made possible by Hollywood 9's new serialization plugin interface which is why the XML plugin now requires at least Hollywood 9.0. Further new features include lots of new callbacks to handle advanced XML features like namespaces, entities, attlists, and more. Finally, the XML plugin now includes a comprehensive documentation that describes all features and contains many examples.
The plugin is now available for free download from the official Hollywood portal. Thanks to Hollywood's cross-platform plugin systemversions for AmigaOS3, AmigaOS4, MorphOS, WarpOS, AROS (x86), Linux (arm, ppc, x86, x64), macOS (ppc, x86, x64), Windows (x86, x64), Android and iOS are provided. Note that Hollywood 9 is strictly required by the XML plugin 2.0.
Additionally, Airsoft Softwair has also released version 4.3 of the Hollywood APK Compiler today. This Hollywood add-on allows users to compile their Hollywood scripts as standalone APKs/AABs for Android. 4.3 is fixes a major bug and is available free of charge for all existing customers. It can be downloaded from the restricted download section.
This release was brought to you by Airsoft Softwair - the hardest working men in code business.

Looking for a Video of a Commodore collection including a Commodore LCD com |
Announcement posted by sibbi on 24-Nov-2022 13:22:12 (2190 reads) |
The group working on the Commodore LCD restoration project as well as the Commodore Historic Society is looking for a video posted on YouTube sometime in the time period between 2005-2010. A teen shooting the video was taken to a basement of a collector which had a Commodore LCD machine on a shelve along with other rare stuff such as a C65. If anyone remembers this, please post the URL of the Video as a reply to this news item. There are very few of these machines known in existence and knowing the history of why that individual came to own one of them could be important.

 Portabl E is my recreation of the AmigaE programming language, along with most of the improvements I have wanted. Portabl E works on AmigaOS4, AROS, MorphOS, as well as even Linux & Windows! (It should also work on AmigaOS3, but compiling needs a powerful machine like WinUAE.)
This is the finished r6 release, with the "beta" tag removed, although it hasn't really been beta since the last couple of release..
See the main manual for what has changed since r5. The biggest changes since the last r6 beta release include: * Added basic Linux support (64bit x86 only), to the same level as Windows, i.e. Shell-only, with no graphics or internet access. This was a major effort, partly due to all the differences (64-bit pointers, case-sensitive filing system, mount-points anywhere, etc), and partly due to all the C headers that needed to be converted. * Linux: PEGCC now supports cross-compilation (for Amiga & Windows) using the TargetOS parameter, as long as an appropriate GCC cross-compiler is installed. * Programs will now compile using the latest SDK of AmigaOS4, AROS and MorphOS. * All OS procedures that can support unlimited parameters now do so, including the Amiga's SystemTags(). * AmigaOS3: No-longer needs a modified "intuition/classusr.h" file. * Added the 'std/pUnsigned' module, to provide basic support for unsigned number types, and the example program "Examples/std/Shell/crc32.e". Useful for porting certain C algorithms. * Added the procedures InStrNoCase(), BigMax(), BigMin(), BigFastMod(), IsBigEndian() & IsLittleEndian(). * In 'std/pTime', improved CurrentTime() to take a timezone parameter. * Fixed FastNew() (and so NEW) which would trash memory, instead of raising the "MEM" exception, if it failed to allocate memory. Thanks to Dimitris Panokostas for reporting symptoms of this long-standing bug, especially as I don't see out-of-memory errors on the OSes I normally use. * Amiga: The installer would fail at "Copying executables..." if the user-specified path for executables did not contain any (sub) folders, such as "C:" (which sadly was the default). Many thanks to "Zendarion" for the bug report. * Windows: In 'std/pTime', CurrentTime() now returns the correct time when DST is in effect.
* I've renamed the language from "PortablE" to "Portabl E" with a space, in the hope of making it more easily searchable on the internet (as well as clarifying how to pronounce it). But the "PortablE" command name itself is unchanged.
You can download it from here: cshandley.co.uk/portable OS4Depot The new release is not YET available from Aminet, as I'm still struggling to get it uploaded, but hopefully eventually the new version will be here: Aminet Portabl E comes with documentation, but you can always find the latest version & on-line documentation from it's homepage: cshandley.co.uk/portable

On November 4th 2002, Airsoft Softwair, the hardest working men in code business, released Hollywood 1.0 for 68k AmigaOS. Originally advertised as a multimedia authoring solution, nobody would have expected back then that this software would turn into a cross-platform programming language for lots of platforms with dozens of plugins for all kinds of tasks. Now, 20 years later, Hollywood is still going strong, receives regular updates and new plugins, and is used by many people around the globe. All of this would not have been possible without the continued support of many Hollywood enthusiasts in the past 20 years. Only the positive feedback we received right from the start made us continue developing Hollywood into what it is today.
As a little "thank you", we proudly present yet another plugin for Hollywood: XLSX. The XLSX plugin makes it possible to conveniently read and write XLSX documents from Hollywood scripts. It offers a wide variety of functions to set and get cell values, cell types, cell formulas, document/worksheet properties and several other attributes. It also offers an iterator function for a high performance iteration of a large number of cells.
On top of that, the XLSX plugin also supports the new serialization interface introduced in Hollywood 9 which means that scripts can conveniently serialize Hollywood tables to XLSX documents by just a single call to Hollywood's SerializeTable() function. In the same manner scripts can also deserialize whole XLSX documents into Hollywood tables by a single call to Hollywood's DeserializeTable() function. It just doesn't get any easier!
Of course, the XLSX plugin also comes with detailed documentation in various formats and integrates seamlessly in the Hollywood IDE, including live help. The XLSX plugin is now available for free download from the official Hollywood portal. Thanks to everybody for all the support in the past 20 years and here's to the next 20 years, cheers!
This release was brought to you by the hardest working men in code business.
