Hello Guys!

First: thanks for all of the hard work to make the CDE usable on
modern platforms. I really appreciate it.

I just like to start a thread about the usability problems, because i
think if we collect this problems, then if somebody have time, can
easily found this thread, and hopefully can solve some of this list.
C'mon guys, lets look our problems! :)

- DTCM / Calendar: cannot compile it. Ok, actually this is not an
usability thing.
"undefined reference to `registerrpc'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [dtcm] Error 1"

- Create Action : this program can create and open the Actions. But if
You open an action, and change it, it cannot save, but it will make a
new action in the Home Folder. Why can't change the opened Action?

- Man Page Viewer : i don't use it, but looks handy, and like all of
the CDE apps, it also can't use the mouse scroll wheel.

- Terminal : I like it, but it is useless -for me- without mouse wheel
support. It just make me angry.

- Dtlogin : I like to use this, but if i set it to the default display
manager, then if i try to reboot or shutdown the computer, the screen
goes black, then the dtlogin come back, thats why i need to use the
lightdm. I think, this is a bug somewhere with the runlevels, but i'm
not a linux hacker, to dig it deeper, sorry.
I like to see a Shutdown/reboot button also in the dtlogin panel.

- File Manager : Scroll wheel support! Maybe drag-n-drop support for gtk apps?

- Session support : This is the craziest thing in the whole CDE. At
login it can open all the programs, what i used last time. It works,
but it cannot put back my programs to the workspace, what i specified
last time. I need always put all of them back. I tried to use this :
xterm -xrm "*workspaceList: ws3", but the CDE open the xterm always on
the first workspace.
I don't know why, but the CDE starts always ~5-6 instance of Skype at login.
I saved a Home session, but it just didn't works. I get back the last session.

- Icon support: i'd like to see better icon support, with more format,
not just xpm and xbm. I hate to create icons for the CDE.

- Panel : For the love of God, please, digital clock! Maybe can we get
smaller icons in the Panel?

Thats all for now. What do You think about it?

Bye and have a nice Day!
