| A-EON Technology Ltd is pleased to announce six new command updates on Updater utility:
* AddBuffers command
* AddDatatypes command
* Assign command
* Copy command
* List command
* MakeDir command
These new commands have been steadily developed over the last three years for use in forthcoming AmigaKit Ltd Classic projects. They have more recently been ported to PPC. They have been released to Enhancer Software customers to optionally decide if they wish to install them.
Apart from core functionality they introduce some useful enhancements. Please refer to our Amiga.org Wiki documentation for more information.
Special Thanks:
A-EON would like to extend appreciation and thanks to the beta testers across the community who have been giving up their free time to test these commands on Classic and PPC platforms. Special thanks to the beta testers of the Amiga Developer Team for their hard work in testing. We are grateful to our developers for their dedication and enduring work to this project.
