Now that's a really nice taskbar It matches the color of the MENU button perfectly.

The volume tray icon needs a serious facelift.It looks like a relic from the olden days of Windows 95.

Whodo, My vote is for crystal shore. However,I do think the orange icons look better on a brownish background.

I think you're doing a FANTASTIC job on Deepthought. I know very little about Linux and want to keep it that way. Wink

I've pretty much "had it" with the sh!t that MS keeps coming out with. They should rename it. Maybe call it Garbage or Rubbish. They are truly masters in the art of deception. Mad

Remember GeoWorks? It did everything better and faster than WinBlows even on old hardware. Ok,I'll stop here. Sorry to go off topic Embarassed

Keep up the good work,

Don

Bling is always a good thing,unless it gets in the way of performing work.

One question about included packages: Is tinyXML included and if so is it compiled to use the STL?

EDIT: I asked this because i'm working on a JWM theme configuration dialog, and wanted to know if i had to parse the XML myself or there was third party libs or JWM/IceWM had it's own XML parser. Thanks!

driveicon layout

Some thoughts on the 'default' horizontal driveicon layout (and depending on drivetype and perhaps install whether that horizontal layout remains so in relation to pup_events) .. I'm fairly certain that users of widescreen displays might appreciate an optional vertical layout much as was the case in P4.00 - this can be a real spacesaver and it seems a natural orderly placement (and even more so if there is no 'taskbar' to take up precious vertical space .. most tasklists involve text and thus are not terribly suited to a vertical layout, so quite often users of smaller displays must resort to various workarounds for that Neutral

). Of course it's quite late in P4.20 development for such a consideration, but it would help to increase the appeal to a wider set of users Smile

in the base (quite likely puplets, I'd imagine as time goes bye).
