Additional Apps

Submitted by philpense on April 30, 2011 - 3:25pm

I write to inquire if one can install windows apps other than the default apps shown on this website. I would want to install some windows developer apps to a USB. Seeking an informed opinion. Much thanks as I await a reply.

i posted this here because there isn't a Warzone 2100 forum

Launcher/Menu/Appearance: Change 'Manage Apps' to 'Manage'

Submitted by Kevin Paul on April 25, 2011 - 7:17pm

In the new Launcher menu, we see:
Backup
Manage Apps
Options

PortableApp's launcher is designed to launch portable apps, so we know it's all about apps. There is no need for the word '... Apps' appended to 'Manage' anymore than there is for a 'Backup Apps'. "Apps" is a given.

The long-labeled 'Manage Apps' disrupts the interface's balance and logic. 'Manage' aligns with 'Backup' and 'Options'.

I suggest this label be changed to 'Manage' before the official 2.0 release.
