the first 3 of these 4 items are perform the other functions
might be better to separate this item also from upper 3 items?

One can argue either way, should it be group by function or group by required selection.

With "Load local", I am using a standard FLTK widget that just so happens to offer "favorites" where you can create a shortcut to selecting a file. I my drop that standard widget and just reuse some of my existing code. That way, I could display only "not already loaded" extensions that would be more practical and consistent with the rest of the layout.
2. I presently do not have plans to merge the two. My reasoning, is that it leaves open the possibility to have a tcz only system, or even an scm only system. Brian, has updated his ezremaster to support scms. So by placing the "extended base" tczs into the Core.gz one could easily remaster an scm only system. Besides, it was enough of a challenge to merge AppBrowser with AppsAudit with all the permutations and combinations of GUI elements.

Re: Load Local
I am dropping the standard FLTK file selector widget and replace with my code.
The benefits are:
1. Display only available, "not already loaded" extensions. Should provide a much shorter select list and therefore make the system easier to use and understand.
2 Consistent look, feel, and operation, i.e., everything is single click and will work like ScmApps Local/Install.
3. The generic file selector is heavy with its preview and favorites, both not needed, thereby its removal will mean a small memory footprint.

Done!
An additional benefit is that one does not need OnDemand, at least it will empower those using window managers and desktop environments that do not support Ondemand an easy and clear way to select from a list of locally available unloaded extensions.

I forced some md5 errors while performing updates. Found and fixed an anomaly.
The Apps GUI now properly report failures as well as successes on the result of md5sum checking with the Updates function.
AbNoRMiS:
i have already reported here about missing checksum
cde/optional/wireless-3.0.21-tinycore.tcz.md5.txt
in the CorePlus-4.xx.iso
and about what can remove empty cde/optional/libiconv.tcz.dep
although in principle it does not interfere anyone
