Just to add my 2 cents, I think it is much more interesting to look into the future rather than adapting new software to limitations in old AES's. Theme changes is a very appealing thought, and if the problem with wind_calc() can be avoided by adapting the related libraries, that would seem logical to me. The thought with adding support for themes and the possibility to change them on the fly (rather than having to reboot/restart AES to see the changes) is definately something that I as a *USER* would like (very much). To avoid this potential new feature because N.AES has a problem with toolbar and wind_get() (which, if I understand the problem correctly, is more or less what it all comes down to) sounds like a sad route to take IMO. As Ozk has already pointed out, XaAES is pretty much up to par with N.AES by now, and I hope that won't be the end of the XaAES history for sure. Again, this are just my 2 cents, but I thought I would add them to this discussion. Regards, /Joakim
