Hi, I am new to the Idea of Blackbox on windows. How does it work with Cygwin?, Is actually a window manager or does it sit on top of windows, and where can I get it?

The Cameo Project - a new bbLean based mod.

The Cameo Project - a new bbLean based mod created by the Binary Bums for the Microsoft Windows family of operating systems.

The goal of the project is to provide the end user with a shell replacement for Windows bundled with an opensource repository. Also the Cameo project can be installed to the hard drive or ran completly from a form of removable media such as a USB thumbdrive or portable hard drive so you can have your Cameo shell anywhere you go.

Please visit [link] for more information or to download the weekly snapshot build.

A New Blackbox for Windows mod

We hail yet another Blackbox for Windows clone/build/branch – must be the 8th or 9th so far. Built by unkamunka, BB4Win Mod has a new bbcore philosophy and some new interesting features, some of them in the eye candy department, since it boasts no less than 12 new style syntax options – though at least two of them (splitvertical and mirrorhorizontal) we have already seen in noccy/elite force builds. Recently, unkamunka updated RC1, replacing it with RC2.
More specifically, this version (BB4Win Mod 1.18 RC2) includes:
• Enabled 12 multi-colour gradients
• Upgraded image rendering (including 24-bit & 32-bit colour options)
• Processes menu - including Kill menu (credits to Alex3D & nocd5)
• Settings menu rationalised: merger of "Blackbox menu" with Configuration menu
• Settings Menu access to edit all local plugin.rcs & submenus
• Alpha values now configurable on a 1-8 scale
• Styling option: Menu.Title.FontHeight <2 removes titles
• Styling option: Enabled wildcard parsing for textures
• UserAppData & RunOnceEx support reinstated
• Removed default desktop clicks
• Bugfixes & minor tweaks

BBLeanBar Revisited

Unkamunka did it again, with a new BBLeanBar build. This one he calls BBLeanBar 1.20 and introduces many goodies, including:
• buttons made bi-directional (& differentiation increased)
• all (bar two) hard-coded mouse-clicks made configurable defaults
• available range of mouse-clicks expanded (code also streamlined)
• menu separators - backwards compatible (& buttonPressed style re)introduced
• locking of workspace edges made fully optional
• RC file syntax simplified & Bro@ms menu introduced
• bb icon (& name of bb version) added to WindowLabel
• non-functioning compatibility code removed & other tweaks
Plus, the new BBLeanBar uses menu bullets in the place of old-fashioned arrows. Get it from [link]
