NTShell NTShell was originally an attempt to port Calmira LFN to Win32 (Windows NT 3.51), but I ended up writing several parts from scratch, specilly the file manager (I never liked the way it is implemented in Calmira, I hate the fact that the Recycle Bin and My Computer are just windows instead of "virtual" folders) and the desktop (so now it is a ListView instead of a bunch of minimized windows). Also, I've added a number of improvements, taking advantage of the fact that in NT there isn't GDI and USER 16-bit heap limitations (more bitmaps and windows). I also discovered in the internet an amazing library called madHook, which allows me to hook API functions. Using it I hooked several NT "stubs" and implemented them to some extent, like the Tray functions (to implement Win9x/NT4 system tray behavior) and icon-related functions (to enable the use of 256-color/32-bit icons). To run NTShell you are going to need an updated COMCTL32.DLL and IMM32.DLL. You can get both here (in NT 3.51 section). NTShell features: But be careful! Although NTShell works well and stable for me I do not guarantee anything. Avaliable dowloads: Useful information Screenshots: | ||||||
