   Theme Prefs - Preview window and more
 

Well If you spend some of your regular web activity in AROS forums you've noticed that I've been busy. It was something I wanted to add for a long time, but never got the time to fully explore it - Lua Programming and adding some needed features to D980's Theme Prefs.

And of course the most requested feature has always been some kind of preview, so that one could actually have an Idea what the window skins will look like before rebooting.

This would not have been possible without Mazze's latest modifications to AmiLUA and the datatype.library. So thank's MAZZE!

It's in alpha/beta stage now, but as soon as all bugs have been ironed out, and I had some of the features I have in mind I'll release it. Can't say much more about theses features, because I don't know if they're actually possible/relevant.

Oh guess what!? I've just realized this is the first piece of actual code I do for AROS!
