eCoSoftware toolkit is updated, DevCon site:  

http://ecomstation.ru/projects/developer/?action=ecosoft-toolkit

 

How to reanimate old project?  

* step 1: switch to LANGE library http://ecomstation.ru/lange => this will  

make you read the source code of your program, simplify and refine it, remember its structure.  

Multilanguage support will attract more users.  

 

* step 2: use modern MsgBox and Progress bar:

* step 3: update artwork: use transparent PNG instead of ugly BMP and ICO  

(send us a request, we are going draw icons for some applications and  

utilities free of charge)  

 

Now you can move to the next stage - update the engine of  

you program (update algorithm, use modern formats of files, use modern libraries)
