Another programmer, philliph, joined forces with BBs best to work on the core and plugins. Which means, new options to make a great shell even greater. There is a list of things we would like to see and I am sure you have your own wishlist so go ahead and post it on lostinthebox. And if there are more programmers out there interested in volunteering, we would love to hear from you.

BBAutoBroam Is Released		2012-02-08 05:58:24
Bro offered another plugin – bbAutoBroam, that automatically runs a list of bro@ams at shell startup. With bbAutoBroam you can: - choose to either use or ignore shell's -nostartup switch - prevent running of startup bro@ams by simply holding SHIFT at startup - space up the execution of startup bro@ams with time interval - get loading feedback (e.g. by using @script[@BBCore.label Loading bbNote...\|@BBCore.exec bbNote.exe]) The plugin works fine with BBLean 1.17 but seems to have issues with BlackboXZ by XZero450… Get it from http://www.lostinthebox.com/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=40409

BBRun Reloaded, Works On x64 Systems		2011-12-08 00:29:25
The -r- uploaded his latest bbrun release, which works on x64 systems as well. bbRun / bbRunBar is a configurable "run" plugin, originally designed for bbLean, compatible with Xoblite and other branches of Blackbox For Windows 32 and 64 bits. Features * Configurable, click-able, Text-only, no-buttons input box * Open files with shell parameters, run shell commands, Broadcast Messages (Broams: call menus, interfaces, anything possible with blackbox) * Creates and uses aliases allowing to turn complex operations into simple user-friendly commands * Recursive aliases (alias of an alias of...) with placeholders ($) and prefix modes. * Since bbRun can be invisible and its Alias system can be used from outside (@bbrun.run), menus and interfaces can also use bbRun features. * Environment variables for the whole Blackbox environment, increasing possibilities for other plugins (such as bbInterface) and portable applications (no install needed) to create a portable and powerful system (e.g.: instantly working from a flash drive in any PC) * Everything set up and managed from its configuration file: bbrun.rc ) * Optionally shrink Blackbox memory each time a shell command is executed. Useful on older low memory NT/XP systems. * Command history, aka Most Recent Used (MRU) list, configurable. * 2 interfaces to choose: classic bbRun (a pop-up dialog) or bbRunBar (blackbox style bar or box) Interface bbRun user interface is minimal: like Windows "Run" dialog (Win+R hotkey), and the current directory is displayed. Like a console, but no output. 2 user interface versions are included: * bbRun: standard run dialog, invisible, called by Broam (or hotkey). * bbRunBar: blackbox-style bar, sizeable, configurable; it can be hidden, or used inside the Slit. Vertical layout can be used for a "more box than a bar" aesthetics. Get it fromhttp://www.lostinthebox.com/viewtopic.php?f=49&t=8492
