All is working correctly now :-) 
...and yes, i would like to have those additional benchmarks, sounds like fun.

Calibrating delay loop.. 
Ok - 176.00 BogoMips 
 
Thank you

Thanks for you feedbacks, I have just updated a 1.6 version with altivec detection and copyright symbol fixed. 
I don't have a real Amiga so sorry for the numerous revisions. 
 
Please tell me if you'd like to add also Drystone and Whetstone benchs.. for now I added only bogomips just for fun. 
Bogomips isn't really indicative about cpu speed, due it's really too much simple test. 
For binaries I used GCC8 and GCC9 compilers under OS4 (QEMU sam460ex) and MorphOS. 
 
Please test 1.6 version and let me know I all issues are gone :-)

Exactly. The copyright symbol does not exist at all in ISO 8859-2, which means that most Eastern and Central European localizations will display a wrong character there. This holds true not only for version strings but also for locale catalogs.

Please don't use byte values above 0x7f in version strings, they will only come out 
the way you think they will, when the user has the same charset selected, otherwise trash. 
For the copyright symbol, use plain ascii, two brackets and the letter C, eg;  "(c)"

1.5 fixed the issues, thank you. 
 
Still, there is one thing that bothes me. 
It display i hvae no CPU Vector Unit, but i do have Altivec on my X1000. 
The "cpu" command tells me that as well.

Ah, so those special chars produced by the app doesn't like to be included in a comment. 
 
Anyway, i'm on a X1000 and some output is wrong, namely 
Genuine product ID CPU: P Version: [following here is a bunch of speical chars] 
FSB Speed: Ld MHz - CPU Speed: Ld MHz 
 
Ld???

It should be 1995 Mhz, no?
