@TSK

Yep, you're right. I have noticed the flags before when I use ls -l but I never thought they were actually implemented to that extent already. Seems the flag with the symbolic notation is there too.

Great, so the flags seem ok as they are.

@ChrisH

I'm with the others as well, keep the flags for now, instead I suggest expanding them instead, (and maybe renaming some while we are at it)

If I'm not mistaken the flags looks like this:

* H = Hold, commands with P-bit set will automatically become resident on first execution.
* S = Script
* P = Pure, indicates reentrant commands that can be made resident in RAM.
* A = Archive
* R = Read a file, link or content of directory.
* W = Write to file, link or inside a directory.
* E = Execute
* D = Delete file, link or directory.

So my humble suggestion would be something like this:

* Perhaps H and P could be merged into one single flag as K = Keep in RAM, will automatically become resident on first execution.
* Change H to mean hide (like in Windows), since it's often misunderstood as hide anyway so let it be hide. (If the letter H is already occupied by above, rename to C = as cloak or some other convenient letter).
* S = unchanged
* A = unchanged
* R = unchanged
* W = unchanged
* E, (or X) = unchanged or rename to X as in execute (like in Linux) to avoid future confusion/misunderstandings. This flag could also indicate setuid/setgid/sticky in future.
* D, (or P) = unchanged or P for protect if P above is changed.
* I? = Expand with a flag used to mark as indexed or not indexed, or something? To help a future indexing system.
* Perhaps expand with a symbolic notation for the file type (as in Unix), where the first letter of the flags indicates the "primitive file type": d for dir/drawer, r for regular file, l for link, p for pipe, s for (perhaps S for script above could be moved here), etc...
* Expand with a "quadriple" (R, W, E/X, D/P) for permissions for "future" group members.
* Expand with a "quadriple" (R, W, E/X, D/P) for permissions for "future" other/everyone else users.
* Oh, and with a field for the owner of the file (in future).

@salass00

I'm in for both or either one of
* <LAmiga+C> and <RAmiga+C> or
* <Ctrl+C> and <RAmiga+C> for copy
Either one these is still better than just <RAmiga+C>, IMHO.

I have rather small hands so I've to use both the left and right hand + I have to lower my look to find the keys too :-/.
But <Ctrl+C> or <LAmiga+C> I can do with only one hand and without looking (!) .

@Chris

Hmmm, you have a point indeed.

I don't mean changing/replacing the default ones, I mean adding/ in addition to. There can multiple shortcuts for an action...

Currently <RAmiga+C> is for copying, but my wish is that <Ctr+C> (Win/*Nix uses this) can be used too.

@LiveForIt

I would love to have Spotify on my Amiga

Does this Despotify include a GUI?

Should we maybe start a bounty, for all of you guys who are working with this project?

@vox

Here's my 2 cents

I know it's not possible to get all the bells and whistles so I'll try to keep my wish-list "somewhat" realistic... I will be happy if just a few of these really gets implemented.

Appart from these:
* USB2 (comming shortly)
* Improved shell with tabs etc (comming shortly)
* SMP
* MP
* Java 1.3/1.5 (ok, maybe not possible at this moment but this is my personal wish)

So, my "small" wish-list:
* Improved/Optimized overall system performance (as usual)
* Possibility to swap <Alt>, <RAmiga>, <LAmiga> etc (think it's already comming)
* <Alt + Tab> as default shortcut for changing window
* Add <Ctrl+C>, <Ctrl+X>, <Ctrl+V> as default shortcuts for copy/cut/paste
* Improved support for JXFS, FAT32, NTFS, ext2...
* Improved Reaction
* Improved (wireless WEP/TKIP) network support
* Improved AutoDocs for SDK
* Possibility to change the bootpic
* Bundle more "optional" apps like Filer, Timberwolf, Ranger, AmiCygnix, AmiUpdate (?) etc
* Bundle/Integrate E-UAE and KS3.1/KS3.x for backward comp. and bang the hardware games
* Possibility to copy text in MultiView AmigaGuide (maybe already somehow possible?)
* A preferences application for prefs
* Bundle more datatypes like png, info, riff...
* Incorporate MySQL (when it's ported) into the OS
* Incorporate a "fast" and optional shutdown procedure for safety reasons
* An easy way to get to the parent window in WB (maybe <Backspace> button?)
* Introduce the PushDock
* A small status app with info/graph about memory/CPU/etc usage
* Enhanced trashcan
* Enhanced status bar (add Network indicator, clock/date, etc)
* Improve the system when started without the startup-sequence (it's somewhat buggy now)

Ok, I'll better stop now... ;)

EDIT: oh, I forgot these:
* Bundle LimpidClock (it's an awesome app)
* Default support for 7-Zip in UnArc (and for compression too if possible)
* A small delay in the WBStartup-window before closing the window during bootup (so you get a change to see something)

Hahaa, I agree, they are crap

But, pretty hard to find good ones...

@328gts

Hehehee, I agree

@328gts

I'm not that fond of them either...

And what about Swedish/Finnish layout?

Wow, cool video and good picture! What soft/hardware are you using for the capturing?
