i think it would be great extension, especially for microcore.

it's a great tool to work on very low resources...

Hi ali

can anyone get those in here?

Even though it is written as a question your wording makes it sound like a demand. The people who
create these packages are volunteers who work very hard and give up there own time to make all
this happen. You might get a better response if you ask more politely.

One more note. Most extensions are created not on someone's demand but interest of extension creator who is kind enough to share it with others (and to make .info file, build script and ready to maintain it in the future, etc.)

So it's the time for self education and give back someting to the community. beleave me, it is not so hard. In f act it's fun :)

i tried making extensions a couple of times...
but while asking people in the irc channel  for help they were like "omfg! you don't know how do that and you think i'll run your extension?" and crap like that
also whenever i got the .tcz file and everything else i ran this script http://forum.tinycorelinux.net/index.php?topic=2475.0 and it said that my files had dubious permissions so i gave up on trying to make them OK with that script since people don't need extensions made by someone who can't do this or that, and i use them for myself
