Is there a listing or web site that in a std text/tml format describes some of the MyDSL extentions? I know a lot of work has gone in to each and I'd like to understand whats being available. I'm looking for: XP type Theme Firewall (I would assume Linux need one) Where might I find more info? Posted by mikshaw on Feb. 12 2007,02:38
Each mydsl extension is accompanied by a checksum file and an info file. The info file has (or should have) a brief description of the program and a URL to the original author's website, where you can get more information about the program

Mikshaw: Thank you for that information. I just jave a problem with a couple hundred application and little else until I open it to read more. I was thinking of some sort of Marketing approach to this task. Perhaps the application name may be well known to some but to me a Nubie ... I have a dumb stare glazed look of "what's all this?" Perhaps I grab the text of each "The info file has (or should have) a brief description of the program..." I could add that to the application name, in an online list and serve it up as a searchable application resource. this is my more perfect world. Thanks for the reply to keep me on track.
