Hum,
good to hear that winuae is up.
i would urge you to use ibrowse (even the 30min demo is worth the hassle/speed hit over aweb)

check Pmail.

Hum,
i use amigaamp/eagleplayer for mp3
frogger/multiview/visage/ etc for general viewing (using datatypes from aminet),
though i run OS3.9, so things may be different on your set up.

best just to download a selection of programs from aminet and see how you like them...
(most work fine in an emulated setup.)

oh, and you’ve installed MUI?
BEGUI, a nice selection of datatypes, etc...

Have you checked that you go the assigns pointing in the right direction?

For example I’ve got this in my user startup

 ;BEGIN MUI
if exists "[color=808080]Workbench3.1[/color]:MUI"
   assign MUI: "[color=808080]Workbench3.1[/color]:MUI"
   if exists MUI:Libs
      assign add LIBS: MUI:Libs
   endif
   if exists MUI:Locale
      assign add LOCALE: MUI:Locale
   endif
   version >nil: exec.library 39
   if not warn
      if exists MUI:Docs
         if exists HELP:dummy ; do not remove
         endif                ; this entry!
         assign add HELP: MUI:Docs
      endif
   endif
endif
;END MUI


You may need to change the `[color=808080]Workbench3.1[/color]` bit to whatever name and path is right for your system

Whoops,
Sry to scary you...i didn’t realise.

Yeah, it should be just point and click.

Try a reinstall. (The MUI install script could have become corrupt)

Hum,
Try another version?

you know about datatypes?

install a few from here (they go into classes:datatypes and devs:datatypes, as pairs usually, one in each ) they come with installers or readme file.

i seem to recall that Aweb used an internal jpeg decoder.
(or was it Ibrowse that used it???)

Heres a link to the ibrowse web browser

Hum,
Try to forget about the darkside,
When dealing with Amiga fonts, the OS goes about it in two or three different ways…

Here is some information about how the Amiga deals with those pesky PC fonts.
Link:

And once you’ve read that you can download some from HERE.

And it’s worth installing the latest
ttf.library.
