Kia ora Everyone

Eben got a bit carried away and has posted a new dev update and this one came out of falling down and then following a rabbit hole, as they tend to.

The File Manager can now open any file as text straight in Game Mode, which sounds small but it’s a big deal for troubleshooting. You can read your own logs without ever dropping to desktop, and you can even pop into the Steam item in the sidebar and read Steam’s own logs.

To try it, switch to the beta channel, open the File Manager (select+X), left trigger on any file and pick “view as text”. Right trigger jumps to the bottom, which is handy for logs.

There’s also a basic PDF viewer in there now (left trigger, view as PDF). It’s early days and he’s not totally sold on it, so feedback welcome on that one.

Now, I better get on to testing this weeks giveaways! There are a few games that I need to ‘test’ and I’m worried they will turn in to proper gaming sessions if I’m not careful!

As always, hope you are all having an awesome week!

Cheers,

Annie & Eben (aka The Junk Store Team)
