Subject: The Frontend : Smaller icons and more of them ?
X-mailer: Pegasus Mail v3.40
Message-ID: <15589C56133@mail.barnet.ac.uk>
Sender: owner-acornet@lists.barnet.ac.uk
Precedence: bulk
Reply-To: acornet@lists.barnet.ac.uk

Peter Lee has kindly sent me a copy, at my request, of his modified
frontend which he altered to allow for 16(IIRC) smaller boxes
instead of the usual 10. It also uses the normal application icons.
Note - that at the moment its just a demo. But if you'd like to see
it I've put a copy at
ftp://ftp.barnet.ac.uk/pub/Acorn/misc/fe_demo.spk
I'm not suggesting we adopt it - I'm just trying to make people aware
of possibilities - especially as several of you have mentioned
something along these lines.
