Enhancing my desktop the opensource way.
I have used a lot of freeware softwares for enhancing my desktop in the past and reading through Dipo’s blog today. I discovered a very powerful opensource desktop Enhancing software, that just does it, beyound your imagination. The name of the software is SharpE.
Website: http://www.sharpe-shell.org
SharpE shell lets you create your own personal user environment on the display screen, but offers many more options for creativity and personalization.
RequirementsSharpE requires a Windows 2k/XP/2003 operating system.
It will not work on Windows9x Operating Systems!
The Environment
SharpE consists of various components that work together in a modular fashion.
The components are :
SharpBar: This provides an extensible application bar.
SharpCore: This provides core functionality and hosting various services for the environment to use.
SharpDesk: This provides advanced customisable desktops.
SharpDocs: This provides a bespoke dynamic help system.
SharpTask: This provides task management.
SharpTray: This provides system tray management.
It is an impressive pack, and below is the result of my implementation of the software on my desktop. No extra tweaks, just the way it came. Might work on the tweaks later but Isn’t it beautiful?
I hope it doesn’t slow down one’s system.
