I agree that there's nothing wrong with a configuration GUI. There is, however, something VERY wrong with a non-working, non-informative INSTALLATION GUI as far as it predicts non-working, non-informative GUIs to come. When the mainstream configuration option is (still) manual editing, (a) not revealing what is to be silently added to the configuration; (b) not allowing the manual addition to be turned off; and (c) not disclosing the non-negotiable 8-point weight are all very poor indicators of the authors' present ability to create a GUI for less experienced users. Adding an 8-point test abounding in FPs without notification would be catastrophic for the targeted crop of newbies, far more than it was for us. Nobody would mind a user-friendly GUI that we could work around if desired. But the "GUI" we've seen this week was user-unfriendly in the extreme, really a poorer omen for its intended audience than it was for us. --Sandy ------------------------------------ Sanford Whiteman, Chief Technologist Broadleaf Systems, a division of Cypress Integrated Systems, Inc. e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] SpamAssassin plugs into Declude! http://www.mailmage.com/products/software/freeutils/SPAMC32/download/release/ Defuse Dictionary Attacks: Turn Exchange Addresses into IMail Aliases! http://www.mailmage.com/products/software/freeutils/exchange2aliases/download/release/ --- [This E-mail was scanned for viruses by Declude Virus (http://www.declude.com)] --- This E-mail came from the Declude.JunkMail mailing list.
