Hi Gunnar :)

What would you suggest, popping-up the info with something like Growl? 
(although it isn't really useful until it is saved on disk, since rule 
priorities change on the fly).
Actually I think this would be useful for the expert users, not for the 
clueless ones. Could you elaborate, please? :)

Regarding my previous message, I insist: any one wanting a wizard for a 
favorite app is encouraged to send a working cherokee.conf ready for the 
application. It *will* certainly boost that wizard up in the creation 
queue ;-)
