« on: February 05, 2009, 09:11:11 AM »
tinycore v1.1rc3 is now posted http://distro.ibiblio.org/pub/linux/distributions/tinycorelinux/release/tinycore_1.1rc3.iso

Change log:
* Dropped duplicate lines from .profile
* Fixed tc-restore.sh boot option parsing.
* Updated wbar to support always-on-top option
* Dropped sleep from tc-config for even faster booting.
* Updated Xvesa for better support of virtual terminal, i486 compatibility, proper rendering, and correct mouse scroll
* Updated tc-config to better support startup scripts in PPI mode.

Wbar users, note that only the next version of it will support true transparency. In other words, if you use it on top, it doesn't update the background when you switch an app.
The only barriers that can stop you are the ones you create yourself.

There is some code duplication in tc-config. Might be better (and save lines ;)) to have an own function for it:
