I've long felt that there was no compelling reason to spend time creating a GUI installer. Since then I've learnt that some languages like the cjk ones are much better supported by a GUI than text modes, and this is not something that I've personally had to deal with. Are there any others? -- Jon Dowland http://jon.dowland.name/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
