I think everything I want is here minus a few things I’ll discuss later. Emacs, Qupzilla (need to get Falkon!), LibreOffice, an IRC client, package manager, a PDF reader, and some media player applications.
What isn’t here as of Beta 1:
-
A full featured LaTeX editor. I write a lot of scientific documents and I need LaTeX for quick preparation of high quality documents.
-
A login/session manager. I really need something that can remember my previous working state and restore it upon logging in again. This supposes something else I’ll discuss in a moment.
What I really want are features - suspend/resume functionality, overall system resiliency, automatic power management (kind of there already minus a few things), and perhaps most importantly, hardware acceleration.
On another note, I am looking into designing a simple login manager for Haiku. What features would the users here like, and what would you all require before you would use such a program?
