Hi all,
Some suggestions for the menus ("screenshots" below):
- Small changes to ordering.
- Removed " I suggest that you try things in this order..." to make room.
- Move "Time and Clock Settings" to the Preferences... menu
- Separate Fun & Games menu (accessible from main menu).
- Change descriptions to match changes.
Plus some changes to the action keys:
- q quits to the command prompt (matches other programs, eg. mutt)
- x quits and shuts down (ie. swapped with q)
- c to change colours (f is now for Fun & Games)
No emotional attachment here. Please cherrypick or ignore :-) .
Cheers, Dave.
