@cdimauro

Much as I'd like the comment about Scalos Development this topic seems so limited and I don't want to use up this thread for discussion about other things.

So I will start a new topic about Workbench Replacements and AROS development in general. Then I can answer these questions and more.

at eastern I have invested some time in testing scalos. I had one problem that files without icons are not connected to the correct def files. After some testing it is obvious that newicon files work as def files in scalos. Propably the internal icon mechanism is old so it not works with newer ones. But at least this is a starting point for me again

This depends on the descriptor settings, you have to set up recognition through by the acronym "MATCH" and no by extension.

All files even without icons will be recognized by Scalos FileType, Scalos "uses Def_Icons Wanderer/Workbench impostations, you can see it from my screnshot.

Scalos recognized and uses my def_Icons, others like for example the file "Enigma" which is MP3 is not well configured on "Scalos FileType", unfortunately you can't store it because "Scalos FileType" doesn't work and goes to Guru if you try to save !

@Deadwood I am aware of your priorities and that Scalos is not on top. But perhaps it is easy to fix for you. Scalos works quiet well on 68k already. There is only one thing I miss... the shortkeys not work. As far as I can remember that affected all aros versions. If that is not too much work for you it would be great if you could look at it.
