Yes, I'll do all of the above (this weekend, when I have time
to breathe. This is an extremely busy work for me.)

Yes, I would appreciate it if you would write a help page.

Also, the compiler/buildmsg module is the only tasklist module
which replaces existing functionality in the IDE (by replacing the
compiler engine etc.)    That's why I'm a little bit reluctant
to add it to the default build (which shows up on the auto update
center).  But I realize that without it, it gets less exposure.
So instead, perhaps you can modify the module description (which
is shown in the Details section of the update center) to clearly
explain this.

(By the way, I still think the module looks a little bit out of
place since its icons have a 3D/gradient look not used elsewhere.
I agree that your icons look better - and it would be nice if we
could upgrade the "look" of all the icons in NetBeans, but until
that's done it looks a little inconsistent.)
