The new version of Startway, 0.8.2.4, has been released today with a great feature added: The ButtonSets.

ButtonSets are extremely small files (around 1 KB) that contain the current button configuration. You create a ButtonSet file from you current buttons to share with anybody who uses Startway, or even any of the upcoming programs that will use Startway ButtonSets.
In the next version, a new feature will be included that will allow you to get one of the premade ButtonSets, or even share yours with anybody using Startway on the Internet.... read more

The new version of Startway Beta has been just released! Be sure to update your copy.

This update fixes many bugs, including the 'Launch Executable' error. New features were added, including but not limited to, displaying the path to launch when 'Launch Executable' is selected as an action.

Bug found in Startway 0.2.0.1:
o Bug: Unable to edit database to include a file path.
o Users will not be able to link a slot to a file.
o To Fix: Wait for an updated version.

Details:
The program will not display the Open dialog to select a file, and will write "Empty Slot" in the database which will display an error when the slot is clicked. We will provide a patch ASAP.

Unfortunately, Startway FS development is paused due to several reasons:

1. Another Beta releases will be available (of course with the accounts feature disabled).
2. The development of a new feature that will provide ability to build add-ons (isn't that an open source project?!)

And more. Expected release date of Startway FS: 2008/6/30.

There are several projects that I created in 2007, but there aren't any releases yet. After I finish the beta testing of Startway, I'll release the 0.1 versions of TS-WS - which is not developed yet.

After our first beta release, Startway Beta 0.2, we are announcing the development of Startway FS 1.0!! This version will include the accounts feature and the ability to manage them!

Change Log (may not be the exact change log attached to the release):
1. Admins and users.
2. Many UI sets to choose from.
3. Ease of use: First-Time Configuration will launch automatically after installation.
4. SF Project: Now accepting new developers. Send an e-mail to aa_mahdawy@hotmail.com, and include the reason of your contribution.
