I might add that the link on the Aminet page is not correct. It links to de.aminet for the file download, which causes a file not found on this server error.

Update: Nevermind. Seems I needed to refresh the page or either it has just been updated on Aminet with a new link. Works okay now

Just adjust your Codepage table (Character Encoding in FF) in your browser. Using Western (ISO-8859-1) solves it and displays a backtick.

Hi!

How about porting it to Aros? A launcher is more 'the amiga way'.
If this is not 68k assembler, the port should be quite easy!



Thanks for reading!

@_Steve_

I should have thought of it... It displays correctly now in MSIE...
BTW the settings were set to "Auto-Select"... Shouldn't it be picked-up Automatically then ?

The new version is online now:

Actually, it's amipuzas' fault: He's not entering a backtick or even a single quote, but a "space with accent" (i.e. he hits the "accent" key, then space).

Not much your browser can do about it (it has no idea that this is supposed to look like a single quote) unless you force it to use a codepage where "space with accent" actually looks like a single quote.

Use ISO-8859-1 instead of ISO-8859-15 fonts.

@Amipuzas

Hello AmiPuzas !!

I'm very happy to see you again, i try to contact you but it seems that your website and e-mail address is inactive from long time now.

Where i can download Rita The Singer and your other great tools ?

Hope that you can upgrade your software in the future, please don't leave the Amiga market

@thread

I'm glad to announce that it's working on OS4. And it is very nice looking. I like it.

The only thing is that when the blanker is active and I'm working on public screen (not workbench screen), the blanker doesn't recognize my working and blanks the screen!

Still a very interesting program.
