3.93.2
picturedatatype crash fix on iconedit save as iff.But func not work because it use the selden used feature to save with datatype and this AROS picture datatype do not support.
Truetype text with textatribute italic is show now correct in italic.
no second afa_system.library is create.this save some memory
minimum stack is now increse from 4500 to 6000 bytes.
I want add picturedatatype save which is miss in AROS picture datatype .But i see in RKM no example.maybe somebody can send me a exampleprog which show how this from Applikation programmers side work
Zune for AFA OS 0.97beta1.(sources are in AFA OS 3.93.2)
screenshots of YAM Simple Mail apdf using zune is here

scalos prefs dont work in zune if the library´s are not binary patched to open zune.library
instead muimaster.library.
zune can work together with MUI.There is a zunePromoter commodity.
You can start in wbstartup and CTRl+shift+z open config window
Here you can add tasks that
use zune.Note that Apps cant use zune if the stack size is below 30 kb.
This is a safeness feature to avoid that stack overflow happen and make the amiga instable.
when a program is promote to zune the call of the MUI menu opens the zune prefs.
here you can select a screenmode too.when the window title show zune -prefs for then you can
select a screenmode.
when you select a screenmode in zuneprefs when global prefs is set.Each program use a own screen
(zune prefs too)
That changes take effects you must restart the program
For some classes i have the ok from the Authors to add this to the Zune install.
other classes are binary patched and copy in the install
to muidir/libs/zune/classname.zcc.If a message come that the class cant convert
you use a too old class in the muidir/libs/muiclassname.mui or muiclassname.mcp.
The versionnumber 0.97 is choose because zune miss 3 features.
1. all menuitems are always in choosable state draw.No ghostet Menu is possible
2. window postions can not store to prefsfile.They are only store as long the app run.
3. MUI notify keys dont work for example delete Key in simple Mail Yam dont work.
But System Keys for example cursor keys to scroll in lists or select a item work.
Help from (AROS) Developers that add this 3 features to zune is welcome.
Here you can download it

Good job Bernd!
It's interesting to see that both YAM and Simplemail can both run using Zune instead of MUI. Someone is skilled enough to port YAM/Simplemail to AROS?

Very good work Bernd! I use Afa for quite some time and its simply great, looking very good!
Looking forward to test this new version with zune, looking really good !
Aros roxx..

Excellent work Bernd!
I think this project is the most exciting thing to happen in the Amiga world in the last decade.

Excellent!

Excellent work Bernd! I would still love to see AROS 68K come out of unmaintained and back into the active developement.

>I would still love to see AROS 68K come out of unmaintained and back into the active developement.
AFA have nothing to do with the AROS 68k.AFA have no defines in AROS.YOu can see AFA simular to MOS but AFA can too built for difffrent CPU.SO it is not limit to 68k.with PPC machine files then it work on PPC too.
But both use AROS Code when it is usefull The aros 68k is same incompatible as X86 (dos.library).
without recompile and modify of programs you get near nothing work.

I understand that, that still does not change my wish for someone to restart AROS68K developement. Especially since AROS was first written, it was written on an Amiga. There are many arch's that I wouldn't mind seeing AROS ported and actively maintained. 68K, ARM and even PPC ports would be a good thing for future developement.
Be as that may, it's good to see AROS code being used in support of AOS. :cheers:
