Absolutely seconded

The pace on updates may seem a bit slow to some people, but i think it's above fast for a niche system and only a handfull of coders.
Great work i have to say.

Free upgrades are superb and i for one will pay for a new big version...the least i can do to support the system i love...and keep it alive.

The CON/Shell upgrade will be a much appreciated addition but i can wait...i *do* work and port with the Amiga shell and learned to live with its limitation and as such will welcome a new upgraded version, but as i said...i can wait

I am right now happy for a more stable system and at last gdb is working again
Thanks Hyperion!

Wait, WHAT

But THAT is what I call NEWS and nobody until now dared to announce it ?
I'm dying to have to opportunity to test it by myself soon (despite I have downloaded the update I haven't had the chance to install it yet because my mother in law is at home currently and she's sleeping in the study room where I have my A1XE and my guitars, so the last few evenings I had to go to sleep earlier than I used to normaly )

I did, didn't i?

And it does work, although it has some strange behaviour...

If one runs the main program, CPU load will go up to 100% immediately...one can still work with it, though.
run <arg> will start the program in question, but there is no feedback if it does run whatsoever...big programs will take some minutes before there is even output, but as i said, it works (tried it with residual just now)

I can do a backtrace...unfortunately (my luck!) i got addresses that are far beyond the exe to print anything useable (the same address space is displayed in Grim, so it's not a problem of gdb - as addr2line neither prints anything ... back to the start for me)

I saw the new shell about two years ago from a betatester during an Amiga Event.. two years for a shell is a long time imho..
