Ant512 has released anew version of Woopsi the Amiga-esque Windowing System for the DS:

Version 0.32 now out:

http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/woopsi

Summarised changes:

- General bugfixes and API improvements
- New proportional fonts classes, and a Python script to create them
- New show/hide system that does not interfere with gadget z-ordering (the old system is still in there under the names shelve/unshelve)
- Double-click support
- All gadgets have modal support
- Buttons change colour when clicked
- ProgressBar gadget
- CycleButton gadget
- ListBox gadget (still a work-in-progress)
- Formalised the structure of a Woopsi application (with two “Hello World” examples that illustrate the two suggested structures)
- Merged SDL code into main DS codebase for greatly simplified maintenance
- Updated doxygen documents

There's also a (currently very small, but growing) community of users on a dedicated Woopsi forum here:

Haha, agreed :thumbup: UFO Enemy Unknown is very good game. But if someone will port it I actually hope they will port the PC version, as the Amiga 1200 version did not have in-mission-music and A500 version sucked...

I look forward to the day the functionality of this shell can be compared to DSOrganize, cause this looks way better! Right now I am eager to see homebrew/game-loading, and a music player that handles different music formats.
