[SHELL] Xplora 2 - Update 05

Post by ne0h »

**********************************************************************************

I proud to be here to release Xplora 2, it's a long time since Xplora 1.8 was released
just because I've thought to leave the project, not because I don't like it but because
I've not enough time to work on it anyway here we are.
Xplora 2 is not just an updated version of Xplora 1.8 but a completely new application.
This shell is conceived not to be "another" shell but something that has to be innovative.
Xplora 2 is writed entirely in C to make the app as dinamical and fast as possible.
Every part of code is writted by my own, I've not copied any code for other applications
(exeption made by some examples for ME Mp3 playing etc...)
The project is very big and the work I've done on it is simply awesome, it's almost 2 years I'm working on it,
not continuously but something similar.
I'll also release an sdk to build application for Xplora 2 using all the internal libraries.
Every application would be very simple to write with the Xplora Sdk as well as integrate the Xplora
FileManager, as soon as I can I'll upload a complete tutorial and the SDK to give devs a good reference!!!
I'm really looking foward to this contest, it's not just the biggest ever but it was just awesome!!!
Thanks to every person that helped to do this compo!!
Sorry for my bad english guys... :(

Xplora 2 a great piece of awesomeness! Having used Xplora 1.8 for a long long time for all my homebrew needs that require a PC to do. Xplora 2 is great piece of homebrew with numerous functions! Good luck in the competition.

I'll as soon as possible fix Music Player and Image Viewer args overflow, a bug that thougth it's fixed but I miss something probably...
6.XX fw support is one of my priorities, just as PSP-GO internal storage support!
