Why not use GitHub. That way you will be sure to not lose the files easily. ;)
And it adds versions tags and other cool stuff.

I never liked Github, but I could try. It's so icky in my opinion; I guess I just need to get used to it.

Updates so far:
  • Some bugfixes
  • Removed a lot of the BS: paint is now defaulted to npaintpro (change-able) and edit is now defaulted to luaide (change-able)
  • Redid the "Run" screen
Here's the screenies I have.
Spoiler

Some more work to do, but this is what I did in the past hour or so.

This is amazing. The different shades of grey green really look good.

This means there can be several pages?

Is it possible to move the tiles around?

Pages are generated automagically. The algorithm that places the tiles is a little... uhm... unpredictable, but they're always somewhat ordered, so I considered it a huge victory, as I spent all night working on it.

Moving tiles I think I'll do later. I'm going to make a whole thing where you can right click on the app's button and get a huge bunch of settings for like renaming (oh, yeah, btw; buttons can only get so big. If I had a file like "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvqxyz" it would print as something similar to "abcdefg..uvqxyz"), moving, and deleting. So, you'll have complete control next update, which most likely will be out within the next 24 hours if I'm willing to work with it again.

I'm going to update the pastebin installers and stuff so yeah. You will be able to test and report bugs (i'm sure there's a bunch) in about 15 minutes. Cheers. :)

Edit; remembered I didn't make any new files, so it was all just copy paste. The installer worked for me on two separate computers. If it doesn't work for you, let me know.

I also forgot to add!

The Alt Keys are like the windows keys. Just letting you know. Sorry for not making that apparent

I've updated the website! Visit http://limefyrecc.weebly.com (I know, weebly; I'm working on my own CSS code and stuff) for the new website.

I'm also going to use github for releases so you can download the current release, as well as previous releases.

Dev Build 5 is going great! Some minor changes and bugfixes, and then some more work to be done. I think I can get it out by the end of the night.

LimeFyre 2 Dev Build 5 has been released! Here's a list of what's changed:

Additions:
  • Tile configuration panel in "My Pinned Apps". To get to it, right click the tile you want to edit.
  • You can now rename, recolor, move, and change the path of tiles.
  • You can now change the computer label.
  • You can change whether CraftOS or LimeFyre runs on startup.
Changes:
  • Coloring scheme has been changed from basically a random thing to a blue scheme. You'll be able to configure these colors in the next update.
  • Internal code changes for easier programming
Removals:
  • Removed the useless "Peripheral Configuration" on the LimeFyre settings page.

Dev Build 6 released. Small update, but visually appealing one. I don't know what to add in the next update, if anyone has suggestions, please let me know.

Patch notes are on the main page.

This OS is cool, I like how there is drop shadow when you right click, the themes and the ability to change the colour and also I thought the setup was super easy. Great work :D/>

I've updated the OP to include the new pictures. Hope you all enjoy! Please tell me if you like it/dislike the changes.
EDIT: Lyqyd, I only posted this as A, a bump (because I haven't posted here in a while) and B so it was separate. If this is not allowed, merge it.

Service Pack 7 Release!
Download it with the command pastebin run WDHNSdGA

This update was a big one, so if there's bugs, please let me know. I updated the original post to include a bug report format that is much preferred.

Please, let me know how you liked it. I put some work into this and I'd really appreciate to hear what you think, even if it's negative.
Thank you! Enjoy the new LimeFyre update!

Hi, I have kind of a (visual) bug.

LimeFyre version: SP7
Program: Paint
Description: The menu flickers a lot. (Like, a LOT.)
What can be done: Maybe reserving the menu area when it's used? (Like
local bPaintMenuOpen

[...]

(some rendering stuff)
if bPaintMenuOpen then

... (a little manual debugging later) um... I guess you should talk to NitrogenFingers instead?)

Yeah, nPaintPro has a lot of flickering. I can try (try being keyword) to port it over to the new buffering system I'm using for the rest of the OS. I'll check that out.
Thank you for the post. :)

So an OS gets a better version of a (kinda) built-in program? If it was like that all the time then OS'es would be the best things ever.
