Sorry, I thought my tongue-in-cheek was obvious. I've heard of Home. I might even have modified mine heavily back in the HC 1/HC 2 days. What I'm wondering about Start Center is if it gets replaced with each new install of LC, because if you were to hack it to have it be what Home originally was, and it gets replaced with each version, you aren't getting anything. The recently used stacks list is not as helpful as you would like because in the case of Levure projects, you will end up with two stacks in the list for each project. If you open the wrong one, you have a problem. Plus the list gets crowded out and truncated, a situation that is made worse with script-only stacks (if you open them in the SE) A good-old-fashioned Home would make these things easier.
