It's probably worth noting that the pack has just passed 300,000 downloads from DFFD, and who-knows-how-many from rehosting, the torrents, and all the other distributions. To all the people who make this possible - thanks.
Hey Peridexis, can I suggest adding some tooltips or additional descriptions to the Utils list in this pack?
Could I also suggest the tooltips that are available stay popped up as long as the mouse is hovering over them? I can't finish reading some of them before they disappear. And they don't always pop up again when trying to hover over again. It's very sporadic.
Basically no, sorry. The tooltips as I understand them are basically just telling an underlying framework "make a tooltip with this text", and I don't know of a way to have them behave differently. The utilities list is generated by scanning the utilities folder for programs, so there's no text to put in a tooltip - I don include the contents list with links in LNP/About/ though!
Salithus is correct that future development will focus on
the PyLNP, for a couple of reasons. One is that it's cross-platform - for the first time ever we can have universal standards for starter packs, and share common resources. Another is that I actually know enough Python that I can contribute to the project, whereas I basically just inherited the current launcher and there's no one currently maintaining it. Last, it's under active development and already out-features the current launcher - so both will be included on a trial basis.
