Hi,

I've created this small app to manage and launch WHDLoad games directly from AROS.

I thought you might be interested.
They are still many things to improve (see the readme).
I'm waiting for your feedbacks.

The installation could be provided on IcAROS CD. The environement is very nice and much more effective than AmiKIT (very high end). I've tryed also ClassicWB that is from my point of view too low end. Both AmiKit and AmigaSYS are distributed with latest Amiga Forever CD. They provide all the necessary files (minus WHDLoad Games) I'm working on an updated version of "WHD MENU" that should include the following: 1. working game preview screen with a screenshot pack (based on KGWHDLoad packages) 2. Automatic KGWHDLoad pack installation (TBC) 3. More options : - Possibility to edit the database entries from the interface - Delete entries / Games from HD - Sorting games by Genre / Favorite The next release may come before end of the week or only in September (I'll be out of reach my development machine during August). Yannick PS1: has anyone installed the SW ? Is it Working? PS2: The archive is also available on AROS archives
