Hello everybody.

Finally we have a new SyMenu version.
With this version I introduced a lot of new features and fixes and this is the complete list:

Two words on the first one, the desktop shortcuts entry, which is the main feature for this release.
You can flag any SyProgram to shorcutify it. When SyMenu runs, it creates on your desktop, one shortcut for each shorcutify item.
When SyMenu closes it removes all the previously created shorcuts from your desktop.
If SyMenu crashes, it's able to clean up your desktop at the next launch/quit cycle.
You can have more than one SyMenu version at the same time and every version will manage its own shorcuts... unless... you previously copied the configuration from a SyMenu version to another. In this case all your SyMenu have the same identifing code and the shortcut will be messed up... well I will explain it better just in case anyone has this problem... I hope there will be no need for this.


Here you can find the new beta version program and the notes for translations.
