AmiDream 0.3

Posted by ALB42 on 29. August 2025

some small changes in AmiDream, bugfixing and introduced a daily image of a random image created very day, including a list of the last days, because the most just use the random image function as far as I see. So we just create a random image every day, which is then much faster to load for the users just want to see some random images to get idea what kind of text to write to create an image.

CreateQR 0.2

Posted by ALB42 on 23. August 2025

By request on amiga-news.de I also added a image save routine for the QR Code creator. The original code had this already but it was using VCL types (TBitmap and so on) but I dont want to make it an LCL application the LCL application wrapper is so huge and slow on standard 68k Amigas. So i made a new version of it using the free pascal own FPImage library. So here is the 0.2 Version of CreateQR with image save function.

I found a little source code on GitHub to create QR Codes. The Source is rather straight forward and simple with little changes, most about difference between Delphi and Free Pascal. So I created a little Version for Amiga, but not save an image as the original but print it to the console using the CRT unit with white and black background. It works nicely can scan with my iPhone.

MPW 0.2

Posted by ALB42 on 8. August 2025

Finished the implementing of image upload for MPW. it was more tricky as i thought. Usually I use AWeb to test the pages, but the upload file never worked with AWeb and the Free Pascal build-in HTTP Server. It never showed any files. A cross check with IBrowse and it worked. It took me some hours of debugging to find the bug in the Free Pascal HTTP Server code. But now it works without problems.

Besides that I introduced a template folder. When the data folder is empty the contents of the template folder is copied to data (for the first start for example). That way one can just overwrite MPW from the archive without destroying the own pages.

Menu entries for „New Page“ is now hidden when the client has no write access.
