Getting the new windowing stuff from Level 2 Version 3 has been long discussed but nothing has ever been done.NitrOS-9 is fully open source. Go for it. Get that code in GrfDrv and CoWin and let's have some resizable/movable windows.I saw an earlier message where you claimed Shell+ was broken in NitrOS-9. I'm not aware of any problems or missing functionality, but again, the source is there.It's time for other people to start taking control of the NitrOS-9 Project. I have less and less time these days and simply cannot do it.On Oct 15, 2012, at 11:38 PM, Stephen H.
