I modified yours a little, some things were inconsistent; like 'folder' and 'map'. And some of the language was kinda Google Translate dutch. :)

That is because if I read in english, my mindset is english. I know what Im saying but translating is kinda hard for me. Especially if there is a limit in characters.

Good suggestions. I will include them to the tasks list but first I have some questions:
  • What do you mean saying "boot animation"? There is already a progress bar on the booting screen. Are you saying about some form of image with an animation here?
  • Do you have any suggestions about how "better crash screen" should look like?

Bootanimation - let the user change the startup Animation

Better crash screen - like windows 8

For now boot animation displays real OS parts loading progress - its not just a picture and there is no "sleep" in loading code.
And for now I don't see any possibility to implement the feature which you request. But we are planning to add video files format (video player and some program to create this videos) in some of the future releases (maybe 1.4 or 1.5). So we may allow users to set their video files to be played in loop while the OS is loading. Is this what you have suggested?

For crash screen: so the main changes will be the filled background and autorestart?

For Crash Screen - No Autorestart but filled background.

Its /issues at the end of the url. Also you can manually type things like [code][/code], you don't need to use the button

I will add boot animation changing to the features list.
We will think about implementing your (or similar to yours) crash screen in the next version.

The thing to remember about crash screens is that they cannot rely on any other part of your OS, they must be 100% decoupled otherwise your error screen could error when a particular API/Class hasn't been loaded.

And we know this. Our current crash screen is created using only standard CC functions. No side APIs or classes. But thanks for warning!

Yeh I figured you'd think as much, but from a quick scan of TableCraft0R's code he is relying on some of your APIs/classes, so was just making sure to point it out to you so that it's fresh in your mind :)

What exactly is the terminal emulator for?

Terminal emulator allows user to launch native CC programs inside the LongOS with all its features like multitasking and windows. So even several terminal applications can be running in one time.
Its supposed that any native program will work in it just like it was launched in the CraftOS without any code rewriting.
