Nobody has yet mentioned the ultimate in customizability - Jazzbench, a complete replacement for the standard Commodore Workbench. Besides having many neat features as standard equipment (like DropShadow), Jazzbench lets you add your own stuff quite easily. If replacing the Workbench itself isn't enough customizability for you... My Amiga is 3000 miles away so I can't be more specific about the features and stuff. Maybe somebody else can fill in the details. I do remember version 0.8 came through comp.binaries.amiga sometime this summer; is there a newer version out yet? stephan();
