Planned features

- Add UI library to shorten code size
- Add API for importing plugins for 3rd party peripheral mods
- Add autodetect system that downloads required plugins for detected peripherals
- Improve disk drive usability
——> Split explorer window for copying files to and from disk (much like WinSCP's interface)
- Use new CC drawing characters to improve UI (add version fallback in case the program is being used on older version of CC)
- UNKNOWN: does the More>> button not appear at certain times when there are networked peripherals?
- Make the networked peripherals menu more obvious
- Add ability to mirror computer screen to monitor
- Add basic send/receive files over modem
- Improve text box to keep text from going outside of it
- Make everything idiot-proof

This looks very good! The ui looks easy to use and I'll have to try it when I get back on a PC

Awesome!

Thank you very much! This is the longest program I've ever written, and I started Friday morning. I'll have to check out everyone else's stuff too!
