Oooh, so much fun, magorium!
![]() I felt like turning back the clock of... well... 25+ years. Last things I did were BASIC 7.0 programs for the Commodore 128. :D BTW, I wish to integrate in "Icaros Settings" (temporary new name, due to the fact that 100% of people who answered... agreed on that) also: 1. voices from the AmiBridge script in Prefs 2. startup sound selection Probably, however, I will detach the AmiBridge things from this program and clone it to a new one for that. I don't like too-much-centralized settings windows (sometimes I don't get much comfortable with Dopus 5 setting manager either, for this very same reason). Only time will really say what will happen. Another interesting development would be a graphical requestchoice command, in a nutshell a GUI which would ask the user for two or more options, but presenting images along with text. But, hey, this would be really overkill for my current knowledge.

I've always found the name Services a bit confusing, so I vote for the trivial choice: d) "Icaros Settings".

A new name for "Services" pref application

<p>Hello, as our beloved Facebook followers (and Icaros beta testers) already know, in the last days I decided to have a look to "Services" amilua script from Yannick (basically because I needed to add some new voices to it, and I didn't want to bore Yannick anymore with my silly requests). Amazingly, I could understand what the code does and, with a braindead error-and-trial approach I could get to this point:</p><p><img alt="new GUI for Services" height="394" src="http://mirrors.lezard-visuel.com/icaros/img/200/nu_services2.jpg" title="new GUI for Services" width="310" /></p><p>As you can see, I've divided options in different panels, but now I fell the 'Services' no more suitable, since the applications also handles choice between different file managers (wanderer/magellan) and in the future should handle other environment decisions as well.</p><p>So: how would you rename it?</p><p>a) keeping "Services"</p><p>b) "Environment"</p><p>c) "Icaros"</p><p>d) "Icaros Settings"</p><p>e) specify yours...</p><p>thanks in advance for your opinions!
