Congratulations Holger!!!
Yesterday I was trying Amiga /View and it works GREAT. It is really a bit
faster. Even the "hardware" scrolling is fast and without the GFX garbage.
I'm also looking for the /Pro Amiga features. (I'll buy the /Pro license as
soon as my financial situation gets better ;)) I just found one minor
problem: when resizing the desktop window it looks like the bottom edge is
not calculated well so the desktop layout is not shown in full size after
resizing...I have not much time to track the problem.
Just another question: Will be possible to make a special 68060/FPU
optimized version of /View? Would be there any speed-up effect?
Keep up the great support for our oldies Amiga machines
Regards,
Cyphre
