Extra Extras

License:GPL

Extra Extras adds new functionality to the Extras Drawer by adding three new actions to the Extras Drawer's action button: "Get Info", "Freeze" and "Thaw". The "Get Info" action opens a view containing information about the selected package. The "Freeze" action freezes, or deactivates, the selected package(s). When a package is frozen it does not use any heap memory, but any functionality that it may provide will not be available. The "Thaw" action will thaw, or reactivate, the selected package(s).
