Another week, another Moonshell update! Well, considering this is a beta run for v2.00, we can probably expect more of these incremental updates. The previous release focused more on getting some flashcart compatibility issues ironed out. This time, it's a mixed bag of improvements, fixes, and additional functions.

One rarely sees two shooting stars blazing a trail of light at the same time, but if one does chance upon such occurrence, legend has it that extraordinary things are to come. One also seldom sees the word "final" in succession, but DS 'brewer Infantile Paralysiser hesitated not in doing so.

Could it be a sign that his already efficient app is about to make some really good things happen? Or could it be just, err, online translations making life harder for us?

I'll cut the prophetic tone here. Merely two days after his finalfinalbeta0 update to Moonshell, we're now treated to another finalfinal release, making the application reach the finalfinal1 stage (finally, whew!). This one comes with a very thin info in terms of changelogs. The only visible new feature is the "Text/Binary viewer added dual screen mode," with Infantile stressing that DS owners must "set it from the SelectDisplay item of the [TextPlugin] section."

MoonShell is a multimedia player for the DS; it has support for a variety of files such as DPG (video file), MP3/ NSF (audio files). Plus, you can also view picture files in JPG,BMP, and PNG format. Don't forget to check out the README included in the download, everything you need to know is right in there.

And oh, the download link's right below...finally.
