| Its very cool to have GIMP even without the plugin, which I hope will follow in a not to distant future release.
With each additional AmiCygnix application ported dual booting linux gets less nessary to be able to get real work done on a SAM440 or AmigaOne without requiring access to a second PC. _________________ Sam440ep 667mhz, 512MB, 120GB 2.5" HD, OS4.1FE WinUae 3.0.0, OS 3.9, BB3, Catweasel MkIV Amiga 1200, Blizzard 040/40 (BlizzardPPC 060/200 with SCSI removed at present), mediatorSX pci, Voodoo3, PCI network card os 3.9BB2 4MB Minimig with ARM addon boar

| @ Yes true...
1) Is there a list of ports? 2) Prioritized list, needed vs wanted? time it would take? dependencies? all these columns. 3) Perhaps a how-to-port to AmiCygnix guide? 4) FAQ & Common porting difficulties etc... _________________ Quote:

Please be a bit patient. There will be a list on my homepage (www.schwan-clan.de).

At the moment it is not possible for others to make AmiCygnix ports. The AmiCygnix SDK ist not published yet. The complete sources are available at OS4-depot, but I think this is no option. _________________ X-5000 PPC 5020/2 GHZ, Fractal Define XL R2-Tower, OS 4.1 final update 2, 4 GB, Radeon HD 7770, ESI Juli@ XTe SAM 460ex/1,15 GHZ, OS 4.1 final, 2 GB, Radeon HD 6450 Amiga 4000D/040 25 Mhz, OS 3.9 BB2, 272 MB, X-Surf, 250 MB ZIP

Fontforge is much more powerfull than Typesmith. But it is not easy to understand, if you want to use all features. _________________ X-5000 PPC 5020/2 GHZ, Fractal Define XL R2-Tower, OS 4.1 final update 2, 4 GB, Radeon HD 7770, ESI Juli@ XTe SAM 460ex/1,15 GHZ, OS 4.1 final, 2 GB, Radeon HD 6450 Amiga 4000D/040 25 Mhz, OS 3.9 BB2, 272 MB, X-Surf, 250 MB ZIP

| I was a Typesmith fan, but :
It doesn't work on AOS 4.x The fonts created with it don't work anymore with Pagestream 5 (!!!) but they still work with the OS and other applications (why?). If you load them into Fontforge and save them again, they start working with Pgs 5.
Also on Win they work with the OS but not with Pgs 5, but after FontForge they work again. Mystery
Anyway, I find the new AbiWord amazing, but still very slow on SAM. Usable on the A1 (but not with very big documents) |

Typesmith 2.5b works fine on my AmigaOneXE OS4.1 system. I had to fiddle with 68k compatibility and screen prefs in the prefs drawer in order to get it to work. With that being said, Typesmith has not been updated since ~1997-98. FontForge is the better product and is free.

| At first thanks for the work! I'm a real Gimp fan and looked forward for testing this version on my Sam.
But after the install I'm sobered again. It's nearly unusable slow. Altought I painted a simple black line on a 640x480 white field the pen is like in ghost mode (the result of my mouse input noticeable lags). Is it bcoz of the alpha port or general of the slow environment? Gimp was more usable on my old 466MHz Celeron with less memory (under Linux & Win'98). :/

Alpha means, that there are no plugins and modules available.
Made your test here on my AOne and the speed is not much slower than on ArtEffect.
How fast are the other applications? How long (for example) does it need to launch AmiCygnix in standard configuration? _________________ X-5000 PPC 5020/2 GHZ, Fractal Define XL R2-Tower, OS 4.1 final update 2, 4 GB, Radeon HD 7770, ESI Juli@ XTe SAM 460ex/1,15 GHZ, OS 4.1 final, 2 GB, Radeon HD 6450 Amiga 4000D/040 25 Mhz, OS 3.9 BB2, 272 MB, X-Surf, 250 MB ZIP
