Helix Boot v0.6.1
Two more boot-menu themes, greyscale icons, and a folder of tools for a Mac.
- Standby and Poly dark join the theme list (
./theme.sh --theme standby, or the Look… window inHelixBoot.exe). They are other people's GRUB themes, adapted for Ventoy, and show every tool's icon in shades of grey. Standby is now the plain choice, in place of Ventoy's own white look. - The stick gets a Mac folder: 18 free utilities to run on a working Mac, Apple silicon included, kept current like every other tool.
Standby is by Llewelyn Trahaearn (GPL) and Poly dark by Andrei Shevchuk (MIT); each is credited in its folder with its licence.
Added
- Tools for a Mac, in a
Macfolder on the stick with aREADME.txt: 18
free utilities to run on a working Mac (EtreCheck, OnyX, Malwarebytes, the
Objective-See tools, Stats, Macs Fan Control, coconutBattery,
GrandPerspective, AppCleaner, SuperDuper!, TestDisk & PhotoRec, Mist,
OpenCore Legacy Patcher, Chris Titus Tech's MacUtil), fetched, verified and
kept current like everything else.platform = "mac"on an app puts it
there, as downloaded, and packs carry them. - Two more themes for
theme.shand the Look window, both other people's GRUB
themes with their own layout, adapted for Ventoy: Standby (Llewelyn
Trahaearn, GPL) and Poly dark (Andrei Shevchuk, MIT), each with a splash
in its colours. A preset can now bring its own layout and fonts
(standalone = trueinpreset.toml). - Greyscale icons:
--icons greyredraws every icon, yours included, in shades
of grey. Standby and Poly dark use it by themselves: the icon choice now
defaults toauto, the theme's own style, and--icons logoskeeps colour.
Changed
- Standby is the plain choice, in place of Ventoy's own white look: "Off" is no
longer on the theme list, and--theme off(or a stick that had it) gives
Standby.theme = ""inlocal.tomlstill gives Ventoy's own look.
Fixed
- The look preview follows each theme's own layout, boxes and font sizes.
