You could mount FTP, HTTP, your audio-speakers, raw memory, or whatever you wrote a device-driver for, as a disk. Since all was using the same scripting language (and Rexx was purposedly designed for inter application scripting, its creator called it a language for job-control, you had access to all environments (DOS, Application Hosts, shared libs) within the same script. Most applications would support it, meaning, you could fully automate them, extend them to do things, the programmer never dreamed about. The OS came with a default scripting language, a Rexx derivate, called ARexx. Now, web-browsing and office is another story.

Raster-image painting is, especially if you want to work at the single pixel, unreached. I have never used a better Filemanager (Directory Opus5 Magellan II, now available as Directory Opus 12 on Windows, which is birlliant, too), Texteditor (GoldED Studio), IRC client (AmIRC), email and news system (UMS), YAM, NewsRog.

AmiKit will then install everything into a consumable system, ready to go, with some modern drivers, that have been created for AmiKit. If I remember correctly, one needs to own the original AmigaOS 3.9 DVD or an image, the ROM. So, it's basically an installation on top of AmigaOS 3.9 (the last legacy version). We've done all the hard work for you so that your modern It includes more than 380 Amiga programs (and games)Įnriching the default system with exciting features and This is for using AmigaOS as a modern Workstation, as much as possible. For that you will be fine with AmigaForever. Please note, that this is not so much about playing old games and demos. For people like me, who still have their old Amigas (and OS disks) the price is bearable. Also 'Rabbit Hole' let's you start host (Win/Mac) applications from within the emulator. If it would not be for AmiKit, these updates, most probably, would have never happened. That is surprising, because the m68k Amiga (the one which gets emulated here) is, basically, out of business since 1994-1996. Several freeware tools have an 'Exclusive Update'. Never has been a UI library that configurable on any system! It is the current version, in active development.Īnother World, the game, is also pre-installed. Some Shareware soft is regsitered here, for example, MUI5, which is the Amiga OOP GUI library. If UAE is the application, then AmiKit is the document it loads. AmiKit is a modern configuration and a curated collection of software for the Amiga, set up as environment for the UAE emulator.
