Of course, I see. But if the code in XCenter did the same, I mean, if
"reduce Desktop" is checked, check if something is using it already on
startup, and act accordingly, wouldn't it all appear to work OK? At

there are many more to interfere out there. Am I missing something else?

You have a plan for forcing the update of XWP on all systems and preventing
the use of Warp Center which we can't fix and you know for certain these
are the only programs that use this?

I always have a plan. Phase I is getting to know how all of this works without looking at the code. Thanks for your help ;)

I imagine the lack of a WarpCenter object in ArcaOS kind of prevents its use. If the people at ArcaNoae were really determined to do that I imagine they could also prevent the SmartCenter class from being registered in the first place in future versions. That would be an even safer way to be sure nothing will interfere with what's not even there. And I imagine those people would want as many customers as possible to be reasonably updated. Seriously, how many people are left outside that lot (besides me ;)?

Then it's all a matter of documenting things properly (do not do this and that for such and such reason: just a twist on the current docs) and wait for reports of the three people in the entire universe who still see something break up in their systems.

But you know, I've been planning to upgrade my lSwitcher for some time now, so don't get upset. I would say you still have years to see my plans change. :-)

Almost there, see attachment. Could you move it further left to align
with 'Idioma' above, maybe? I think we'd be done for good.

On my system if I do that I see a strange clipped box following the + sign.
I can move 'Idioma' to the right if you like. Thanks

I'll have a look at that later. I've changed a couple of strings to stay closer to the current English menu (lSwitcher settings -> Properties, and help mnemonics).

-Open a WPS folder window. Bring up the PM popup, 'C' is for close,
and works; good. Open the folder again, bring up the popup menu for
the folder on the taskbar ('Move' is in there, btw): now 'Close' is a
submenu with 'Close' and 'Quit', and 'Quit' does nothing, as I half
expected. I suppose that's meant for applications (which have 'Close',
'Quit', 'SigKill', 'DosKill'...)

I am not clear as to what you are telling me here.

Yeah, I've written better pieces. Have a look at the screenshot. 'Programs' is a WPS folder: you can make it 'Close' but not 'Quit'. Maybe the 'Close' menu should be replaced by its first child item, which is the only one that works in that situation.

-Packaging: any particular reason why we keep old English readmes, i.e.
readme.v*?

I always package the historic readmes on my first release. They can probably go away now. Thanks

Thank you for all you do ^^
