webOS 2.0 looks good...
I've been a palmOS user since it's inception and look forward to a new HP phone running the new palm/WebOS
Was extremely happy when HP bought palm as they're my favorite 2 tech firms

Oric emulation
Still got a Oric Atmos (in a Dragon 32 case...don't ask I was young) and an Oric 1 lurking someone round here. Alway remember wanting the floppy drive add-on....but Tangerine (French I believe) went bust before I ever saw one for sale. Ironically as the Atmos was my first computer, I ever bought with my own money...I still see it with Rose tinted glasses and another irony you could pick games up for it for at least a year or two after, cheaper than you could Spectrum and 64 games. It didnt last long tho....Commodore moved to Corby and so there was a steady black market in 64 gear so I went that away soon after.Posted 04-03-2010 at 04:24 AM by Boudicca

What a crappy day...
Ok, a slightly better suggestion.
Do you have an IDE hard disk you can use in the A1200 for a network enabled OS install? If you can do that and you can simultaneously use your SCSI disk, you can use the A1200 do download and put all the drivers and stuff you'll need for the A2000 on the SCSI disk and then put the SCSI disk back in the A2000. After that, just locally install them. And as a plus point, your A1200 remains usable (albeit on an old IDE drive, but what the heck, I still use one) until such a time you can add another SCSI one to it.Posted 12-31-2009 at 02:42 PM by Karlos

That does read as a pretty crappy day, nothing worst than having to part with items especially if they have sentimental value and then adding insult to injury by breaking down on you - argh!!Posted 12-04-2009 at 07:23 PM by Skippy

Easily upload files via FTP from scripts etc.
Always used ncftpput for such tasks here, as for pipes there are a few solutions on aminet (not hacks, think I used util/shell/Pipe-1.5 here).Posted 09-22-2009 at 07:45 AM by Golem!dk

Speaking of pipes, isn't there a unix-alike pipes hack for amigados that allows bar separated commands? IIRC, it also creates IN: and OUT: (or something like that) as logical devices for redirection...Posted 09-19-2009 at 05:30 PM by Karlos

You can't use it from scripts. Or, well, you could, but you'd have to pipe commands to/from it.
A specific example: I was using magpierss to automatically syndicate this blog to my homepage. Its a pretty cool PHP script that does caching etc. to minimise traffic from the original host, but for some reason it stopped working for several days.
I've just written a simple program for OS4 that downloads the rss feed with wget, generates a new index.php and uploads it to my server using this perl script.
Its not quite as nifty as magpie, since the syncing of my website to this blog is now manual, but its just one click of an icon in AmiDock and its done with no user intervention.Posted 09-18-2009 at 01:33 AM by xeron

I must have missed something. What's wrong with just using the regular ftp command line tool?
It worked for me, even without the SDK installed.Posted 09-17-2009 at 06:01 PM by Karlos

Bye bye, tag soup!
There's plenty of fun to be had with any strict standard, especially when it comes to achieving relatively simple layout related tasks

HTML5 is one of those standards that seems totally incapable of being fully agreed upon.
You could just use XHTML strict, if you want something clean.Posted 09-14-2009 at 02:28 PM by Karlos

Six years with OS4...
That is quite a long time really. I never really thought about it.
I remember getting OS4 beta up and running on my BPPC. Unfortunately, I had to take a big sabbatical away from it all.
A lot has changed in the meantime. 4.0 final was released, OS4 classic, and now OS4.1.
Somewhere along the line, I inherited an A1, but I never really used it. I decided recently that I should sort it out. Picking up the trail after this long seems kind of weird. I'm slowly getting back into it though.
I still use the classics, though, along with UAE, which is stupidly fast on my current PC
