WPS-Wizard adds an icon engine to the WPS so colorful PNG images can be used as icons. A preview for image files and thumbnails created by the Lucide application is added to the info area. Some of the features are:

  • Configurable menu items
  • Different menu items for different classes
  • Programmable object fly over help
  • Folder toolbars (freely programmable). Change it using drag and drop
  • Folder information area. Changeable using Rexx
  • Gadgets for displaying information on the  desktop as bars or text. These are small and easy to create REXX scripts
  • Contents of image files is displayed as the icon
  • A REXX interface is provided which gives access to the WPS from user scripts. Modify functions of WPS classes using REXX (similar to subclassing)
  • A preview for image files and Lucide thumbnails is added to the info area of folders
  • Change icon size up to 200x200
  • Icon engine for using PNG images as icons
