Still cleaning up old and useless sources when I'm in the mood... so here is another find:

Quote:

SerialEcho works like the AmigaDOS built-in command 'Echo', but its output is redirected to the serial port instead (which can be catched with another computer connected to the serial port or a tool like Sashimi).

SerialEcho is reentrant and can be made resident.

http://tokai.binaryriot.org/public/serialecho-50.1-morphos.lha
http://tokai.binaryriot.org/public/serialecho-50.1-amigaos.lha

Sources (in case someone wants to port it to AROS, OS4 or whatever... else it's an example how to write an reentrant commandline tool):
http://tokai.binaryriot.org/public/serialecho-50.1-source.tar.gz
http://tokai.binaryriot.org/public/serialecho-50.1-source.tar.bz2

And now I'm off for some more interesting and useful stuff...
tokai

UPDATE: an update is available at http://tokai.binaryriot.org/public/ New: OS4 version.

Found more funny/usefull/useless (? you decide) stuff in the depths of my harddisk (still cleaning up things).

Made this nifty SDL port approx 4 years ago. Also noticed today there is a release of it on Aminet already, but hell its a very bad release... so here is a new one after all.

Quote:

Atakks is an Otthello-like clone clone for one or two players.

Quote:

This was one of my first SDL ports ever, but I never released it, because its interface is a bit sucky (important game messages only go to the standard output). But as usual that level of quality is good enough for others to make releases. Since my version is not only a build, but also contains some useful changes (e.g. it
does not require 100% cpu usage while playing, etc.) and the other version on Aminet is a very low-quality release I decided to make a proper release myself after all. I didn't fixed the interface though, so this one is still a bit sucky... but you'll see. :)

Changes compared to orig. version:
o removed extreme CPU usage for no reason
o better 'Quit' handling during play
o nifty iconx start script to catch the standard output in an acceptable way when game was started from Ambient
o MorphOS icon
o other cosmetics

MorphOS version:
http://tokai.binaryriot.org/public/atakks-1.0-morphos.lha

Sources:
http://tokai.binaryriot.org/public/atakks-1.0-source.tar.gz
http://tokai.binaryriot.org/public/atakks-1.0-morphos.diff

The game might not have the perfect usability (UI wise), but its still fun to play if you like that kind of games.

regards,
tokai

Ever heard of MPD (Music Player Daemon)? No, don't be afraid.. I didn't either before analogkid pushed me to do this mind-bogging tool to be able to control it from MorphOS. It started out as simply clone of enqueueTorrent, but in the end a completly new product was born. I have no idea if it's really useful or not. Can't try it out myself really. ;-)

Quote:

MPDControl is a very basic commandline based client for the Music Player Daemon (short: MPD).

Music Player Daemon allows remote access for playing music (MP3, Ogg Vorbis, FLAC, AAC, Mod, and Wave files) and managing playlists. MPD is designed for integrating a computer into a stereo system that provides control for music playback over a local network.

For more information about the Music Player Daemon visit its official site: http://musicpd.org/.

With MPDControl it is now possible to control a MPD server from MorphOS. E.g. have MPD running on an EFIKA with Linux and manage everything comfortably from a Pegasos with MorphOS. MPDControl can be used as a MMKeyboard or Toolmanager hotkey or be launched via some simple project icons and AmigaDOS scripts from a dedicated Ambient panel. The possibilities are numerous.

Personally I have no idea if MPDControl is really that useful (I coded it 'blindly' w/o having a MPD server running or access to one), but the person who needed it and did all the testing said it works fine: so, if something doesn't work then blame analogkid. ;-)

When I have time I'm still cleaning up old stuff... noticed a bug in my old RLEpack which had to be fixed, cleaned it up a bit and ported to 68k too for the fun of it.

Quote:

RLEpack crunches or decrunches any kind of binary data with an implementation of the RLE compression algorithm (known from many picture formats like BMP). RLEpack is a low level implementation, so no special file headers are written and therefore the resulting files are relatively useless for normal user purposes (better use gzip or bzip2 for such cases, they also compress better).

http://tokai.binaryriot.org/public/rlepack-1.3-morphos.lha

Sources:
http://tokai.binaryriot.org/public/rlepack-1.3-source.tar.bz2
http://tokai.binaryriot.org/public/rlepack-1.3-source.tar.gz

quite useless for normal usage, but maybe someone finds some use for it.

Hi.
Sometimes while i'm running mldonkey, my connection goes dead and when this happens the debug log fills with this message:
[udpSock] Exception sendto failed: No buffer space available in sendto next

I use MOSNet mainly but this happens with other stacks too. What can i do about this? Is there a MLDonkey or TCP/IP stack parameter that i should tweak?

@AmigaMancer:

Nope. Never had this. Maybe try with Netstack from MorphOS 2.0 now if possible. Maybe it's a MOSNET problem (not unlikely).

Re: Freeze 1.1 for MorphOS

MorphOS Developer

Hoppla,

a tiny release, just wrote this today for my own personal needs. Maybe useful for someone else too (no idea).

Freeze 1.1 for MorphOS

Introduction

Freeze is a small commandline command to freeze (suspend) tasks or processes. A frozen task is still available in the system, but doesn't consume CPU time anymore.

Freezing a task can be useful if the task misbehaves (e.g. if the task starts to busyloop and does not let have other tasks a turn frequently enough and hence renders the system unusable).

There are similiar tools available already. F.ex. iKill (comes with MorphOS 2.0) can be used for the same purpose. But iKill needs an intution window to find the task, so does not work at all for window-less tasks. Further the well-known system monitor Scout offers in its tasklist window the possibility to freeze and activate tasks, but in case of a busyloop situation Scout can takes ages to load and initialize before it's possible to freeze a misbehaving task.

Freeze can be used from commandline and without any mouse interaction. It's very small and does not require any extra dependecies. It should load even in a worst case situation relatively fast.

To find a PID of a task or process the tasklist command (also provided by MorphOS 2.0) can be utilized from the commandline easily.

Example

> Tasklist MisterBanana

 pid    address type  pri   state 68kstack/used     ppcstack/used     name
2217 0x261760A0 proc    0    wait     4096/100         32764/1712     MisterBanana

> Freeze 2217 VERBOSE

Task <2217, MisterBanana> successfully freezed.

Requirements

MorphOS 2.0

Hoppla,

A new OpenTTD release after a very long time. Must be some evil magic making this possible.

Please note this release should work fine on 1.4.x still (not tested though).

I probably switch very soon to MorphOS 2.0 features (shared z.library, png.library and so on) to make the releases easier to maintain for me personally. So if someone still needs MorphOS 1.4.x compatibility then he has to do own builds with static link libraries, I guess. Just as info. If there is *really* *high* demand for 1.4.x compatibility I might keep stuff static for now... all depends on feedback...

For more information and downloads please visit http://www.openttd.org.

If you like to support further OpenTTD releases for MorphOS and motivate me in this regard (I haven't played OpenTTD myself for years now, because I don't have the time. And OpenTTD code has become evil C++ mess which I really dislike. So... I'm not doing this ports for myself after all. ;-)

) you'll find a nifty Paypal button at the bottom of my homepage: http://www.binaryriot.de/releases/index.php?lang=en. :-D

Happy Tycoon'ing!

tokai the solo entertainer is back... with another release probably noone will use anyway. :-)

Hoppla,

Debug 1.1 for MorphOS 2.0 is a small commandline tool to enable/ disable Exec debug flags from the commandline. Just like you can do in "System Settings > Debug".

This can be useful if you want to handle this from a shell script or something (f.ex. I have a shell script which puts my MorphOS into a more powerful debug state if required (activates invzeropage, starts extra debugtools like mungwall, etc.), so I don't have to run all the slowing-down extra debug stuff all the time).

Well... this is mostly useful for developers or experienced power users which want to help developers. ;-)

Did you ever wonder where the hell all the CON tasks come from? Yes? Now you easily can find out with:

TaskTree 1.3 for MorphOS

TaskTree is an informative command line utility printing out a current list of tasks in a hierarchic structure showing possible parent-child relations. That way it is possible to see which task launched another.

Registered Shuffle users had them in the Shuffle release archive, but somehow they were missed in the MorphOS 2.0 version of Shuffle (actually there is no really good place to install them on the ISO, so they get skipped. ;) )

Maybe someone has some fun with it. Usage instructions at the top of the scripts.

regards,
tokai
