    This might help.


    Go to: www.ambient-desktop.com
    Click on: Nightly builds ... Loading ...

    Then on:
    Latest Ambient build (no debug) - 23.09.2007 - 13:02 CET New !
    or
    Latest Ambient build (debug) - 23.09.2007 - 13:02 CET New !

    File is in .tgz format, so download it with your favourite web browser
    to somewhere on your disk or Ram Disk (which I do).

    Then you need a tool to unpack .tgz files. If your not so much into
    command line stuff, download Voodoo-X. This is a great program that
    lets you unpack different types of packed files.

    I just do everything from Ram Disk. After unpacking, I install it and
    reboot.

    Good luck :)

    You don't understand, I can't get to the Nightly Builds page; server is either down or DNS is bad. Thanks for your comment though.

    Your link works for me. Thanks!

    Hi all,

    I never used the bookmark function in Ambient, I even dont know what is it for, what can one do with it.

    Could anyone help and explain this to me please? and give me an example how to use it?

    Thanks in advance

    Go to Ambient Prefs/Window and add Bookmarks icon to the Ambient's
    lister toolbar. Now simply open a lister, browse to any directory,
    click on the Bookmarks icon and... From now everything should be
    really easy to understand. :)

    PS I use polish locale for Ambient, so I'm not sure if every single
    name I've used sounds exactly like in Ambient's original (english)
    phrases.

    @ Kamul

    Thanks very much for your help/explanation :-)
    I understand what's it for now.

    It would be also great to have a possibility, like we had for the AmigaOS with Toolsprefs, to add more custom menus to the toolbar of Ambient so one can execute programs from there.

    Regards
