New 'Program' Type in Downloads/COBs

There's a new 'program' type for COBs which should be used for programs that are separate from the game.

I know it's a bit of a misnomber to have it under 'COBs' since they aren't really COBs, but it's the best option for the moment.

If you know of any COBs/agents that should be moved from 'tools' or 'misc' to 'programs', please post here or PM a mod/manager/me. Thanks!

And thanks to Salabasama for e-mailing me about it to get the change implemented. Much appreciated!

Peculiar... I already changed this upload to the new class, however it doesn't seem to show up in the search...
Does it need to be re-approved or is this an actual bug?

Would the Devthing count for this new category?

Looks like there's a bug in the search feature. I'll fix it tonight. In the meantime you can see all programs by going directly here:

downloads.php?type=Program&sortBy=ID&section=COBs

Having agents in a section called COBs, even if they're semantically the same, was already a little confusing. No worries.

Might it be time to just change it to 'mods' though?

I think "Add-ons" or "Addons" would work better, I've seen quite a few Creatures fansites categorise it as such. However, a metaroom is sort of an addon, so maybe "Objects" would work better?

It's a sign of plenty; there's enough stuff hosted here that a one-dimensional categorization system (as opposed to eg. tags) starts to break down.

Finally fixed the navigation for viewing programs. :)

I'll work on fixing the category names/organization later.
