lol !!! ;D ......
Just look a it :


I work so much time on it...... In fact it's not perfect, there are screen flashes when you move the windows (due to set window position). I blocked the window size, and the minimize and maximize icons... The only restriction in the menu is that there is not possibility of key control, but for shortcut, you can spécifie the menu items name as "paste Ctrl-V", and then test Ctrl-V with Db commands....

I've try to make it in English, but If you don't understant something ask me....

The responses on this forum are much slower than on RGT...Well not always but I can hardly see 15 minutes on RGT without a post.

Thx !!!!!!! I'm french so I didn't understand all your comments .... What does mean "I reckon you used pure 2D" ? Do it means "I think you used pure 2d" ? Yeah this is only 2d command, if that's what you meant .... If you see bugs, tell me.... I know one : when you use FTP command in window mode, the "ftp connect" command clear the screen and put window in full window mode.... So if you have this problem, ask me for the solution.... I've it, but somewhere on my computer...

I personally don't have XP but I was wondering...
Does this look XPish in XP?

If he just emulated the look of windows, then no, it wouldn't look "XPish" in XP, although the look could be done the same with XP's graphics.

That's really cool, good work although sort of slow.

Oh and no, it doesn't work with XP themes because he simulated the graphics.
