My Programs patch to use directory name

**tslayer** · 2004-02-13, 07:14

it was brought to my attention that if using my programs and one of the applications did not have an embedded description in the xbe, then it showed the filename.

that made it hard to determine what the application really was because it would show, for example, only default.xbe.

i created a patch that will now use the directory name if there is no embedded description in the xbe.

patch is located here:

https://sourceforge.net/tracker....=581840

if one of the devs can verify it, that would be great.

thanks,

ts
