Harry Sintonen: Two days ago I happened to browse to Workbench Nostalgia web page (http://www.gregdonner.org/) just to find out that seemingly no one has yet found the AmigaOS 3.5 hidden message. Olaf Barthel has confirmed there is one so I did some studies and found it. :) AmigaOS 3.5 hidden messages --------------------------- All the following is in at least BoingBag1 updated AmigaOS 3.5. a) "Do You Know The Way To San Jose" -message inside the libs:workbench.library. There is a relocation entry pointing to this string inside the library, but it doesn't seem to be used by anything. Not 100% sure about this though. (due charset limits "Jose" is with normal e. It really has e with ' on top of it.) b) Little german rot13 crypted message at the end of the libs:workbench.library (CygnusEd has rot13 feature, AmigaOS 3.5 and CugnusEd have been greatly influenced by Olaf Barthel:-) The message encrypted is: Denn die einen sind im Dunkeln Und die andern sind im Licht. Und man siehet die im Lichte Die im Dunkeln sieht man nicht. In english: Some are in the dark some are in the light. The ones in the light are seen the ones in the dark you can not see. (rough translation by ZZA) <ignatios> says it's from the "Dreigroschenoper", text: B. Brecht, music: K. Weill. There's a translation to English sung by Louis Armstrong, in case you have access to a disk library... c) Cool eastern egg in Workbench About: 1. Choose Workbench/About... menu item. 2. Position the about window so that both left and top are odd. (for example to position x:1 y:1, you can turn off the mouse acceleration to make positioning easier) 3. Type "Who?" when the window is active (excluding "") 4. Click Ok. 5. Check RAM: for something cool :-) AmigaOS 3.5 secrets discovered by Harry Sintonen
