AmiComSys is a program that you use to communicate with other people on
a tcp/ip-net - e.g Internet. At the same time it make it easier to find
people's IP-addresses, for use with Internet games, and home pages.
It uses AMarquee.library by Jeremy Friesner & Håkan Parting for most of
it's network handling.
Now you can say "Hello!" to your friends on the net, or just see if they are
online.
You can:
* send text messages
* send chat requests
* send WEB-requests.
* transfer files.
* have a public realtime chat
* have a private realtime chat, with photos.
* check your Pagoo message box.
* advertise your homepage, ftp-site, IRC-server, ICQ id and own-made programs.
Future updates will include more.
Please put it in your WBStartup drawer and enjoy ...
Then it will automatically connect to the server when you connect to the Internet.
AmiComSys requires:
* amarquee.library v.50+ in LIBS:. It's included in the archive and will
be installed together with AmiComSys.
and Magic User Interface (MUI) version 3.8 or higher
(The third party packages below is most certainly already installed on your
Amiga. They are used by many other Internet programs, like for example YAM 2.)
* and NList.mcc by Gilles Masson, available at Aminet:dev/mui/MCC_NList0_87.lha
* and BetterString.mcc by Allan Odgaard. Included in the archive
(MUI/libs/BetterString.mcc). Does only work with Kickstart 3.0+. Normal
MUI-string-gadget is used under Kickstart 2.0
* and Toolbar.mcc by Benny Kjær Nielsen. Included in the archive
(MUI/libs/Toolbar.mcc). Does only work with Kickstart 3.0+/68020+. This is not
used in the Kickstart 2.0/68000 version.
* optionally you may also use NewString.mcc by Rüdiger Sopp. (found in
the Ibrowse-archive)
* or Textinput.mcc by Oliver Wagner (found at ftp://ftp.vapor.com/misc/textinput_13.xx.lzx)
(kickstart 3.0+)
Note that the above only apply if your friends is using AmiComSys,
and have an Amiga. AMarquee.library is ported to JAVA(tm) but AmiComSys is not.
Features:

History changes:
1.34 (26.05.2001)
The Installer script was updated:
You could get "object in use" errors when you tried to update a former version which
recently was running. Now the installer script makes a couple of "avail flush":es to
flush the lock on the toolbar images.
The icon-file was always overwritten.
1.34 (24.05.2001)
-----------------
NEW: The central server name is amicomsys.dhs.org and it is now located in Sweden.
This version will connect to that site if you don't change it in the settings.
NEW: Recompiled the whole project to be certain there are no trouble with the compiled code.
NEW: The latest libraries are included in the distribution.
NEW: New images in 16 colours using the RomIcons palette by Andreas Kuerzinger.
1.33 (12.07.2000)
-----------------
NEW: Now play full samples if sound.datatype version 40 or better is installed.
If not it still plays maximum 1.8 seconds.
BUG: It didn't work to connect with SendFile to a computer in
the internal network from the Internet router, i.e. the computer having
the actual Internet connection. Reverse it did work and PChat
worked both directions. Outside your network there were no problems to
connect to your computer.
To make it possible for computers on Internet to connect with PChat and SendFile
to your computer which has an internal network ip address, i.e. is behind a firewall
or Internet router you have to enable the "I'm behind a firewall" checkbox in
the AmiComSys network settings.
It still isn't possible to connect with PChat and SendFile between two machines
both having only an internal ip-address, i.e. when the Internet router isn't
involved. This is a feature for AmiComSys 2.0 which still is in development.
This program is ShareWare.
