A followup to the DFSee 14.6 BETA anouncement:  

While there are still some features to be added relating to Linux and
Mac OSX device management and screen colors, most other stuff is ready.  

 - Creation of the DFSPUPPY bootable USB stick has been tested on Linux,
 OS/2 (actually ArcaOS), Windows-7 and Windows-10 and works quite well.  

 - Mouse support has been extended to the Linux amd MAC versions, and
 has been enhanced with several new features that make life easier:  

 - Switch between [Basic] and [Expert] by clicking the menubar indicator  

 - Button1 DRAG in a selection-list (Browser) to mark a range of files  

 - Button-3 click (usually scroll-wheel) to show context sensitive HELP  

 - Ctrl-click to close a (HELP) text window or a dialog window  

 - Ctrl-click on the commandline area to exit the program  

 - Scroll text windows ans selection lists using the scroll-wheel  

 Note: Still NO mouse support in the Linux console, only XTERM terminals  

 - Streamlined creation of the bootable USB stick, now including automatic
 transfer of your registration code from the 'host' platform.  

 - Automatic screen-redraw after resizing of the terminal Window (MAC/Linux)  

 


I am inviting all of you to participate in second round of BETA testing:  

 - The features listed above
 - Creation of the bootable DFSPUPPY stick
 - Booting the stick on various PC hardware  


Please supply feedback on this list, if anny issues are found with the above.  


 For some more info, and a few screenshots see:

 and

 The stick creation has been tested by several people, and quite a
 few quirks on the different platforms have already been ironed out.
