NoNameNeeded Posted October 27, 2007 Posted October 27, 2007 I know this is not the beta forum but since there seem to be some people here who get things to work that normally don't I posted this here.Chicago's (Win95 Beta) Winpad was an Organizer tool (calendar, scheduler etc.) that came with the Chicago Betas but was omitted in the final release.It looked like that:I wanted to get it to work at least on Win95 but it doesn't seem to work. In WinXP I only get an error message saying that it can't run on Windows NT.Does anyone thinks that it might be possible to get it to work?
BenoitRen Posted October 27, 2007 Posted October 27, 2007 I can't find the program for download anywhere.
marxo Posted October 27, 2007 Posted October 27, 2007 Oi! This is not an entire offtopic but here's something for you to see:Windows® Notes Concept
NoNameNeeded Posted October 27, 2007 Author Posted October 27, 2007 I can't find the program for download anywhere.Well, it's a part of Chicago, won't be easy to find.But I uploaded it:http://members.kabsi.at/LIGHTYEAR/Winpad.ZipOi! This is not an entire offtopic but here's something for you to see:Windows® Notes ConceptNot bad, but I think Winpad is a little bit more than that.
marxo Posted October 27, 2007 Posted October 27, 2007 Yea but combining this GUI and that kind of functionality you could get something...
NoNameNeeded Posted October 27, 2007 Author Posted October 27, 2007 Won't be possible though because it's just a 16bit program, i.e. it's not even possible to apply the winxp skins (apart from the fact that it doesn't run at all).
marxo Posted October 27, 2007 Posted October 27, 2007 I knew that I was talking about writing it from scratch since the image I posted is only a concept...BTW I downloaded it and it looks like pretty dependable from the rest of the system...
xelionxel Posted October 27, 2007 Posted October 27, 2007 If you wont a Windows Vista Calendar replacement...download Mozilla Calendar 0.7! It's opensource, stable and updated by the mozilla community ( and the OpenOffice.org community, he, he..). Marxo, you are a great graphic artist! i i think you can spend some time to create a Windows Calendar Skin for the new Mozilla Calendar...you can start with this: https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/5308.
marxo Posted October 27, 2007 Posted October 27, 2007 I am not really keen on Open-Source and stuff, but are you talking about Lightning or Sunbird.Sunbird is more for me when looking at those tips...Anyways I prefer modifying something that isn't open-source .. Thanks for the compliments...
BenoitRen Posted October 28, 2007 Posted October 28, 2007 Because it's 16-bit, I can't use the Dependency Walker on it. I also took a look with Regmon, but I can't figure out what it needs.
