[www-issues] Re: [Issue 46347] Clearer Explaination Needed in the File Associations Dialog during Installation

[Steve Kopischke]

I like the second (and left it in the quote below). However, can text be 
added to reference a generic "Windows Explorer" (I do not know what it 
is called in Linux or Mac OS)? That might be adding unnecessary weight 
to the text, but since most of the users targeted by this are neophytes, 
we may want to consider even more overkill.

(My proposed enhancements are offset by * *)
For example, "This means, for instance, that if you double click on one 
of these files *in Windows Explorer/Linux xxxx/Mac OS xxxx*, 
OpenOffice.org will open it, not the program that *automatically* opens 
it now.

-----------------
OpenOffice.org x.x.x can be set as the default application to automatically open
the following file types.  This means, for instance, that if you double click on
one of these files, OpenOffice.org will open it, not the progam that opens it now. 

If you are just trying out Open Office.org, you probably don't want this to
happen, so leave the boxes unchecked.  You can always open these files in
OpenOffice.org, by using 'File >> Open' and browsing to the file you want.
... then the list of file types and check boxes.
