Bonjour Bengalih,

First congratulations again for making one of the most if not the most useful software aroudn here, which makes flashing (almost) a pleasure!

I have 90+ cabs I am installing every flash, and being able to automate most everything is a joy.

However, after using it for one month or so now, I have some more comments. I hope you may take some into account to release in your version 7?

1- Shortcuts

Great idea as discussed before. I would love 2 extensions:

If you put a name in the syntax of the shortcut, rename the link file to this. For instance I use Super_dictionary_Chinese_english_2007.cab, so my syntax is:

Super_dictionary_Chinese_english_2007=Programs\Dictionaries

But the problem is that the program names my shortcut something stupid like "2007 super software CHinese simplified to English Dictionary.lnk", and that becomes unreadable on something like Quicmenu, so I would like to rename it "English-Chinese-Dic.lnk".

My suggestion si therefore that by changing the above syntax to:

Super_dictionary_Chinese_english_2007=Programs\Dictionaries\English-Chinese-Dic.lnk

Sashimi would parse that there is a a file name and would not only move my shortcut to the right directory but also rename it to this new name. Great other benefit is that if you change version and you have alink (say from HTC Home or the cube) to it, you can have a fix link to whatever version of the program is installed automatically.

If Sashimi detects no .lnk filename, it would jsut copy straight the default name in the directory (current behavior).

I also mentioned in my previous comments, it was really quite painful for me to create the initial shrotcut ini file, a tool in the interface that you can say "generate shortcut file" that would by default scan all your cab directories in Sashimi and by default would assign a shortcut to the directory where you store your cabs in the Sashimi directory would make things so nice and faster.

2- Manual interface

The new interface is much better, but would it be possible to enable selecting in advance a bunch of files either by check box or just highlight on click and then do a "install" button. Also, you could have a select all and unselect all button.

3- Registry

To most people (outisde of China!) reading the ergistry is like reading Chinese! I know you claimed in an earlier response that "in 10 minutes you can google any information about the registry". In my case it took more like 10 days to find out which parts of the registry I should backup! And I have not found everything I want to export yet. I think it would be super nice in my opinion to make the Sashimi tool even more usable by a great number to either:

Create a wiki on the major areas of registry of interest (today plugins, user info, HTCV home settings, regional settings, week format (monday or SUnday first day)...

Even better create a user interface in the Sashimi GUI for setting up exports where you could have the most common options listed that would automatically save the right files and/or registry keys for that purpose (regional settings, today plugins,...).

4- My own problems

Some of my cabs (like lingvosoft keybaords) have a little dialog box "do you want to reset your device (Yes/no)" and I manage to install them automatically to main memory (to card crashed Sashimi, I gues becuase it was overriding the next cab screen) in Auto mode (which is good because there are many of those). BUT I am not sure iff it is related to Sashimi, but when installing those cabs my ROM (L26 v9 currently) would NOT reboot! I took them away from auto, installed them manually -> No problem! Any idea?

THanks again for making Sashimi!
