Looks promising, but is missing some key features... My wish list:
- shared run-time library
- non-blocking IO
- using Aminet severs for the version checking is IMO bad behaviour
(imagine when billion users are accessing a poor Aminet server
and just checking if a newer version has been released :^)
- MUI custom class would be great, too (I mean inside the library,
not a separate MCC module)
- more flexible (optional download for new betas, exe download
(with XPK-support) directly to the prog dir, and much
much more :)
- other ideas?
And, by the way, source would be great indeed :-)
