Hi. How can i change system icons in LiteStep (i changed it only in Explorer, but i doesn't works on LS) and can i change visula theme of cmd.exe?

There are no system icons in LS. The only icons are the ones for litestep.exe and the utilities. If you use a theme with a desktop module, check the desktop module's docs. They should use whatever you set in display properties for them. If not, I haven't a clue.

The appearance of cmd.exe does not change. Get Console2 or something like that.

You can't change the set of system icons in LiteStep using some program that applies them; you have to resource hack shell32.dll I believe. I think it has to do with undocumented system calls used by explorer.

Versus Console2, it was brought to my attention that Console 1.4x is superior, having a perceivable performance increase setting.

Hmmm, i searched it on Goole and i find only Console2. Do you know from where i can download C1.4?

I don't notice any major performance difference w/ console2. I kinda wish LSH could be made to do the same stuff, though :)

Well, half of Console2's options were broken at the time a few others and I tried it. Console 1.4x also has more convenient copying and pasting. It's good enough IMO for regular use over plain cmd.exe

Yes. I don't remember how, but I know you can, so google away, knowing the answer does exist :)
