- XPATCH NEWS
-
-
- First I have to say thanks to all people mailing me about the XPatch, its
- have been more interrest for this patch than I thought. Such things helps
- one going on with a time assumpting thing like this patch. Thanks folks!
-
- However though, I am now been involved in a commercial project which I have
- to prior. I have been involved since November last year, but we didn't got
- the contract before now (Mars) so now I don't have much time to work on the
- patch (or other projects I would like to work on as well). That means that
- the patch will be delayed and I don't know for how long, sorry!
-
- BUT, I _am_ working on a developer kit for the patch so programmers can take
- advantages of the xpatch.library to make their programs look cool. The
- library will have all the features the main XPatch will have and they will be
- compatible with the patch when it arrives.
-
- For interrest on this developer kit send me a mail. NOTE: The kit is NOT
- finished either, but it will be available before the patch itself so please
- don't rush me.
-
- For those who don't know what the XPatch is, you should take a look at AmiNet
- and find the file XPatch_pre.lha (or the executable XwinDemo.lha). It will
- make your windows look like (modified) Motif X windows with extra features
- the normal intuition windows don't supply to day. It's however not a X11
- terminal emulator of any kind, just has the purpose of giving your windows a
- nice look.
-
- There is also problems with my Internet supplier which disables me to get the
- news from these newsgroups as well, so please e-mail me if you got questions.
-
- I am also trying to build a mailing list and need programmers to betatest the
- library when it is ready. Mail me if you think you are suitable. Preferable
- you should program assembler or/and C, but E, BASIC and Pascal programmers
- are welcome as well.
-
- Thank you for your attention! Amiga will survive..
