Emelfm is there:

dfm

Apps Folder -> Tools Folder there are two icons for Emelfm

jwm

Apps -> Tools -> Emelfm File Manager  There are two menu items.

fluxbox/menu

BTW, I forgot to list .fluxbox/menu in my second post, (corrected now) of files and directories likely in your backup.

You can always check by booting with "base norestore" option. This will not load your backup and you can verify if a backup is overwriting new features.

Just starting to fiddle with RC3 now. Looks nice. Well done.

Ive still got issues with multiple icons (shortcuts) in the MyDsl menu. Click on the DSL button and goto the Mydsl Menu. Both icons work ok its just thats there are 2 of them identical.
This was a clean install on USB stick. Looking with the FM off the desktop it seems that 1 is the app file and the other is the dsl file. 2 examples of this are xscreensaver.dsl and linpsk31.dsl

Booting off a CD with no backups. I switched to Fluxbox and there is a odd box (non descript) in the bottom right corner. Not sure what that is and it does not seem to do anything.

How do we put our own shortcuts on the toolbar menu at the bottom? This is a good setup. Sorry about my lack of experience and clues with this but I am giving it a go.

If you are talking about icons in the mydsl folder, then it is normal to have a box icon for the package (.dsl, .uci, .unc) and an open box for the .app (shortcut)

Use an editor on .jwmrc to add your own menu items.

Yes I can see that the icons in the mydsl folder (on the desktop) make sense. What Ive got happening is 2 shortcut icons identical in the mydsl menu. Get to this by clicking on the DSL button (bottom left) and select the mydsl menu. I get 2 icons for some apps. Both Icons actually work and launch the apps fine. Go and download xscreensaverGTK.dsl and linpsk.dsl and put them in your mydsl folder. Theres 2 examples.

Yep, two examples of poorly made extensions.
When the issue only occurs specific to an extension or two and not all, it usually indicates the issue lies within the extension.

I guess another round of a 'declobber-like' script is in order. Why should we make everyone pay (slowdown) for dynamic cleanup of such extensions. Since I will be converting icons to 32x32 xpm, I might as well as do this check and cleanup too.

It is hard to have quality control of hundreds contributed extensions.

At least I now know what you are talkiing about.
