Hello to everyone.
The new version 3.02 is released.
I introduced the marquee text for long labels as an official feature (the 3.01 already had the marquee texts but they were hidden) and some minor features and bug fix.
But the real news is the new SyMenu PAF program suite plugin.
Usually the SyMenu plugins are distributed through this forum (http://www.ugmfree.it/forum/topics.aspx?ForumID=5) but I prefer to distribute this one together with the SyMenu main branch to take advantage of the SyMenu native update feature.
The SyMenu PAF program suite plugin allows to integrate a lot of the http://portableapps.com/ programs inside SyMenu through a simple and clear interface useful to download, install, update and remove the PAF programs listed. Try this plugin and let me know what you think and which improvements you like for that.
A few words on this suite. The PAF suite is a collection of open source and freeware programs hosted on http://sourceforge.net and organized by http://portableapps.com/ PortableApps develops and distributes for free a very good launcher too but I don't think that they could be bother by this new feature of SyMenu because the two launchers are aimed to different kind of users: more skilled for SyMenu :-) while their launcher is simpler and with less options and because of this more immediate in use. Anyway, to avoid any problem, I tried to get in touch with PortableApps but I've been totally ignored. My idea was to propose to those guys a collaboration between SyMenu and PortableApps... maybe my many mails have been lost. Anyway if the people at PortableApps change their mind and want to speak with me, I'll be here.
Last warning. It seems that Avast has started to detect SyMenu as a virus. I've already report to them the false positive but if you users help me maybe the problem will be solved in a few days. The url to submit a false positive to Avast is this: http://www.avast.com/contact-form.php?subject=VIRUS-FILE
