Note: The former ~/.OnDemand directory has been moved from the home directory to the user specified tce directory as ondemand/  

Programs and supported window managers have been updated to reflect this change. If you use a ondemand and a window manager other than the default flwm_topside then you will have to update your window manager.

Added directory structure to TCE DIR ondemand.ico/ which contains appname.img  where: appname.img is for extension loading via wbar.

This allows for very fast booting system, with icon loading of selected ondemand items.
You must re-create any existing ondemand items via the updated appsaudit GUI or ondemand CLI script.

Files likely in your backup that need to be updated:
/opt/.filetool.lst  -> Need to add new /opt/bootsync.sh
