Shell replacement for wm?

[dancer_69]

For windows pcs there are many programs that replace the default windows shell like litestep or aston. Is it possible to develop a shell replacement for windows mobile today screen? It will be very nice to have a more flexible and finger friendly today screen in place of, and not above, today screen.
What you think about that?

pointUI seems perfect for you.

I know about pointui and I tested from the first version release, but this and some other similar programs run more as a front end of wm's shell and I speak about a replacement. I know that it doesn't exist right now but I think that will be, if it's possible to happen, a good idea, cause like this the today don't need to load at system startup and reserves device's memory.

GSmart v1 would definitely work for you. You will have to search for it though as I don't have a link to the thread it came from but it sits in the today screen not on top like PointUI Home does.

Please read and try to comprehend what the previous poster is saying in their post before posting a reply. dancer_69 is looking for a shell replacement app residing IN the today screen not on top like PointUI Home does.

I know about GSmart, I used and this for some time. But again this isn't a shell replacement. This is a today plugin. I speak about a complet replace of today screen. And I know that there's nothing like this. This is more an idea for the developers. If you tried a windows shell replacement as litestep you could understand my point of thinking. Windows have explorer shell, and these kind of programs replace this executable completly. They don't cover it or be a part of it, they executed in place of explorer. So this is more an idea for a different developing directions.
My english are not so good and I cannot explain better. I hope
to understand what I try to say.

Well in that regard, pointUI is the closest, because it masks the windows UI as much as it can among all the competitors. And yes, it's not a complete replacement yet, and I can imagine it will be one day as the development keeps going.
