It was simply an interface to display information, whereupon actually doing anything (composing a SMS, making an appointment, browsing through your phonebook) required you to use the default windows programs.

Isn't that all you would need or even want from a single Today plugin?

Why would you want to replace all that stuff? I use editors, SMS box, battery manager, and the phonebook on a regular basis.

Directory("\Windows\Start Menu\Programs"):-File("AAA.lnk","\Windows\AAA.lnk")
This copies the shortcut for the program AAA from the \Windows folder to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs. In WM 6.1, programs that ended up in the start menu were in \Windows\Start Menu, so all you need to do is add "\Programs" or "\Programs\Games", or whatever folder you want, to that line in the app.dat file, and it will not show up in your start menu. The reverse is also true (just get rid of the \Programs part and they'll end up in the start menu)
Hope this helps : )

Maybe this is a dumb question, but where exactly in the kitchen would I look for the APP.DAT file? Or is that accompanying the apps themselves (individual "APP.DAT" file for each)?
