Age of KCmenu
Early on in the Be300 community there was a hero known as KCmenu, released to the world by a member of the community who was well known by everyone as Greg. When KCmenu was installed it would place a file named KCmenu.exe inside the Patch Folder, then when KCmenu was selected as the default, it would change the name of KCmenu.exe to menu.exe and, after reset, would cause the menu.exe inside the Patch Folder to replace the existing Casio Default menu.exe file, much in the same way that editing the registry to boot a separate shell is done. The program was brilliant in that it allowed the user a start menu style system as well as a skinable interface that boasted the same features one would expect to see in a Pocket PC Today screen. The program included a desktop skin creator that allowed users to easily create basic skins for their KCmenu, and there was a large following of advanced skin creators, such as CapriRS302, Sracer, and WolfNinja, who contributed many of the favorite advanced skins for the software. As time went on, KCmenu added such amazements as animations, tasks, and other plugins to its achievements, and even created a scaled down Today screen version for use in the EpodMX and Xpod series of releases. The developer behind KCmenu was very active in the forums in helping with direct customer support, and even created a guide to skinning to help those that were still struggling to create their own amazing skins.

Famous quotes containing the word age:
“Our age is pre-eminently the age of sympathy, as the eighteenth century was the age of reason. Our ideal men and women are they, whose sympathies have had the widest culture, whose aims do not end with self, whose philanthropy, though centrifugal, reaches around the globe.”
—Frances E. Willard 1839–1898, U.S. president of the Women’s Christian Temperance Union 1879-1891, author, activist. The Woman’s Magazine, pp. 137-40 (January 1887)
