BetterWB 3.3
« on: February 21, 2014, 08:28:30 AM »
BetterWB 3.3        21-FEB-2014

This is a new version of BetterWB workbench pack, that aims to be an enhancement, an updated extension to AmigaOS 3.1, without all those hardware requirement typically associated with these kind of packs. It is indeed a better 3.1 than 3.1 itself!

BetterWB works on any Amiga. It installs on top of a clean AmigaOS 3.1 installation. It is distributed as a set of floppy images and occupies about 10MB of harddrive space.

Changes since last version:

-Updated icon.library to version 46.4.332
-Added showboards command so that we can detect some ACA accelerators (WhichAmiga fails with some of them)
-Added PowerSnap commodity for enhanced clipboard functionality
-Redit 1.8 replaces the aging Ed and gives you much more functionality
-Added a new "IconSet" preferences app that lets you switch between different built-in icon types
-Plus Many more fixes and minor enhancements

For those that wish to update BetterWB 3.2 to 3.3 here (http://www.mediafire.com/download/hasy5a9b1dnrhy1/Update32to33.zip) you can find a zip file and either choose the adf or dms floppy image and use the supplied installer.

You should really change the title from "BoingBag 4" to something better fitting.
