Hobbes (Files) Reoganization
Martin Iturbide:
Thanks Andreas.
Maybe I can summarize it as, "there most be a better way to warn the users or give suggestion about each software, but we still need to crack it down".
I will keep thinking about.
- Software comments feedback?
- Software Rating ?
- Use Recommendations?
Regards

Everyone please consider that a huge work on fields like this has been done by the former Team OS/2 Italia with the eCSoft/2 site
https://ecsoft2.org/
The infrastructure is AFAIK maintained by Massimo, which is a fellow user of this forum as well.
I think the topics in the database could be "enhanched" somehow by adding ratings or the like.

Hello
I'm thinking that /pub/os2/util/wps maybe has too many files. Even that I removed from it the wallpaper changer utilities. (/pub/os2/util/wallpaper)
I'm thinking that it may be slip into:
1) /pub/os2/util/wpsenh (?) - For WPS (GUI) Enhancers
2) /pub/os2/util/???? (?) - All the "bars", like stuff for WarpCenter, launchpad and new desktop bars. Which is a good name for these ones?
3) /pub/os2/util/wps - For the utilities that register, deregister, classes... and anything else related to WPS.
What do you think, too drastic?
Or maybe just moving the "bars stuff" may be enough?
Regards
Lars:
"wpsenh" makes no sense as every WPS class enhances the WPS. That is the nature of every WPS class.

It appears that you are making it much too complicated to find anything with your reorganisation. Use the 'keep it simple' idea, that way people can just look through the main division , see what is there and select what they want without needing a deep knowledge of OS/2. Your system assumes that everyone has a deep knowledge of the inner workings of the OS (I have been using OS/2 since version 1.20 and I would be lost with your system. Most people using it just want it to work, people just trying it out expect to be just able to select something to try without having to know the inner workings).
