Features

 

AmigaOS AmidockEasy to navigate desktop environment and application launcher

AmigaOS comes with its own desktop environment called Workbench. Workbench comes with a range of functions to help users access and arrange their documents, photographs, music and video files in an intuitive manner. Naturally, users may also customise the look and feel of Workbench from the background desktop image through to the design of the interface and much more.

Themes/TrueType Fonts/Anti-aliasing/Truecolor Icons

AmigaOS Truetype Fonts SupportWorkbench has the ability to use themes that change its look instantly. A theme is a set of configurations that change the appearance of the window borders, buttons, fonts, backgrounds, etc. Many users have created their own themes that anyone can use to make a desktop look special or unusual.

AmigaOS has the ability to use TrueType anti-aliased fonts, like most modern operating systems. This allows the user to augment his system fonts from the variety of fonts available on line.

The appearance of the Workbench is enhanced by the use of scalable icons with truecolor depth. With an icon plugin, you can use any PNG image as an icon by just renaming it. Many PNG icon collections can be found online, which the user can download and install.

Easy and fast installation procedure

The installation procedure of the AmigaOS is really fast and simple. The user can start the installation from a bootable CD or (on supported hardware) from a bootable SD-Card, which leads the user through helpful screens where he/she has to make the necessary choices. Within a minute the installation starts by copying the necessary files to the system, then, after a reboot, the system is ready to be used.

PythonPython scripting language

AmigaOS 4.x has added one more scripting language to the system. This is Python, a well known programming language that gives the user the ability to create helpful scripts to automate everyday tasks. It is totally free, even for commercial products. Python also integrates well with the AmigaShell and ARexx and includes many AmigaOS-only modules.

Hardware compositing engine

With the latest version of Workbench, graphics card features can be used to add graphics effects to windows, like shadows and real time transparency. With these, the user can choose inactive windows to be transparent to any extent he wishes. Also, drop-down menus and the AmiDock can be made to appear transparent.

Intelligent memory paging

With this new feature, AmigaOS 4.x has the ability to use memory paging. The kernel uses a special SWAP disk partition when memory requirements are greater than physically available. The application needs no special processing, as the system uses the swap memory transparently.

Cairo 2D Rendering LibraryImplementation of the "Cairo" device-independent 2D rendering library

Cairo is a 2D rendering library which adds to the system the ability to output graphics to various targets, like a window on the Workbench. It has the ability to be hardware accelerated, which means that Cairo can gain speed and performance from suitable graphics cards. Modern applications from other operating systems use Cairo as well, like Mozilla Firefox and OpenOffice.

Grim Reaper

AmigaOS 4 saw the introduction of the Grim Reaper, which is a smart crash handling system that can catch application errors and tries to handle them while preventing a total system crash or freeze. When an application fails, the GrimReaper window allows the user to kill the offending task, allowing the rest of the system to keep running. It also gives information about the problem that occurred, really useful for a programmer. It has the ability to export a report of the system status at the specific time the crash happened, which the user can send to the developer to help him to find the problem and fix it.

JXFS 64 bit file system

With AmigaOS 4.x a new file system has been introduced called JXFS. It is a totally new 64 bit file system that supports partitions up to 16 TB in size. It is a modern journalling file system, which means that it reduces data loss if data writes to the disk are interrupted. It is the fastest and most reliable file system ever created for AmigaOS.

Ringhio Notification SystemNotification system

AmigaOS 4.x has a new system-wide notification system. This allows applications to inform the user about what is going on by displaying a custom message above everything else on the screen. †As an example, when you receive an email, a message can appear on screen telling you that you have email in your inbox. If you click the message, the email client will come forward and be displayed. †Another example, a large download might finish in your browser, a message can appear to inform you that it has finished downloading. The backend server which runs this new notification system is called Ringhio.

Shared Objects

Shared Objects are a relatively recent addition to AmigaOS. They are radically different from the traditional AmigaOS shared libraries. A shared object is, as its name implies, somewhat reminiscent of an object code file that is used during compilation of a program. Shared objects make it extremely easy to port applications from other computing platforms and complement traditional AmigaOS shared libraries.
