Os 3.2 development preview

Suggestion: can we get these Commodore BOOPSI classes to become part of the official OS distribution?

FWIW, the "BOOPSI/GI1/Classes/images/led.image" in that archive is clearly misnamed. The gadget is actually an "LCD" component.

Someone at Commodore apparently couldn't tell the difference between a https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light-emitting_diode and a https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid-crystal_display.

The only AmigaOS "LED" gadget I'm aware of is the disk activity indicator in the ASL file requester.

Another feature request: an official prefs editor for the WB Tools menu whose settings can be read by workbench.library/LoadWB directly (so that an additional tool in WBStartup isn't necessary).

This would be very nice--or at least adding OS-legal support for separator bars, keyboard shortcuts, etc. That way, ToolsDeamon would no longer be needed (esp. as it's rather buggy, even after the 2.2 patch).

The author of ToolsMenu, Kim Fastrup Larsen, might be open to adding such features to this already handy utility.

Not really, it is a seven-segment display component. Such displays can be implemented via LED, LCD, or other technologies.

Technically correct, but in the context of Commodore's "LED" gadget, they are combined into an LCD panel and (AFAIK) intended for easy plugin coding for CD audio players, etc.

Anyway... lol Not a big deal as long as a true standalone light-emitting diode gadget isn't needed in BOOPSI (which sort of already exists via the ASL file requester).
