New Litestep Theme Site
Undergoing immense withdrawal since the sole litestep-only site went down? Suffer no more - ls-themes.org has thrown open its doors. (LS.net should be back with us shortly as well.)

It's nice, it's neat and it only has a few themes - so start uploading! Do also provide constructive feedback in the forums there.

I'd like to take this opportunity to formally welcome ls-themes to our most elite club: "Shell sites with Hyphens In Their names" (we can't think of a good acronym yet). Just when Cypress and I were thinking of disbanding too.

Gears grinding on Issue 10
Ok, so it's been a while and spark and myself have been tied up with Real Life (read: sitting on our rumps). Time to get cracking again!

If you've got articles you'd like to submit or ideas you'd like to discuss, give us a shout at ravi[at]shell-shocked.org or sparkane[at]shell-shocked.org. spark's still at the helm for 10.

Looking forward to hearing from shell-folk, and to getting a good issue out the door.

Announcing: Shell-Shocked Issue 9

Number Nine? Number Nine? Yes! Number nine is out.

I'm not big on ceremony. You probably aren't either. This is me, getting out of the way!

Google's Directory and Shells
The directory that Google uses (DMOZ) has been out of date for a long time where Alternate Shells are concerned.

Finally, we have some say in what goes there - since Tres`ni is now one of the editors for that category. If Google continues to use the DMOZ directory, this category could be a valuable starting point for folks looking for information about shells. (Several other services also use the DMOZ directory.)

So here's what I'd like people to do: Submit links to good shell sites. When you're done - post here and let us know which sites you've already submitted, so people don't repeat submissions (let's go easy on Tres`ni!).

State of the Step
The new LS dev team has revived an old tradition: The State of the Step.

Some highlights: The devteam now consists of ilmcuts, jugg, Message, Rabidcow and Sci. If you think you have the balls to join the devteam, get in touch with one of these folks.

Documentation writers are needed, in particular for a new Litestep Documentation Team, as well as someone to maintain lsdev.org.

It's a very exciting time for Litestep. Head on over and have a read.

Oh yeah, there's also a new release candidate to check out.

Kapsules is almost here!!
Andrew Powell, the developer for Kapsules ("A scriptable, whatever-suits-you application engine" according to Andrew himself.) would like experienced beta testers to help him get a solid release out the door.

Screenshot : http://shellscape.org/kapsules.png
AVI : http://shellscape.org/4.avi
Please note the AVI is in DIVX format. If you do not have the DIVX codecs installed you can still view the movie, but it may appear slightly distorted.

Do get in touch with Andrew using andrew[at]shellscape.org. Win2k or later required, don't waste your time if you don't like reading the docs.

More information.

Just to let you folks know, work on Issue #9 has already started. If you have a tutorial, review, interview etc. that you'd like to contribute, please get in touch with sparkane. He'll be the "Editor in Chief" for 9, reducing yours truly to a lowly, boot-licking subordinate.

Reach him using sparkane[at]shell-shocked.org

Hi West - I did a while back, if it's a recent one - I haven't been checking regularly. My flat's been totally flooded from a burst pipe - so life is a bit disrutped at the moment.

I think I'll implement a "keyword" for this site, so you'll have to start your comment with ... say "shells" ... I'll strip that and post your comment.

Hopefully that will keep the spammers at bay.
