I agree that the bulk of our users don't know and don't care where the log files are, and that many of our messages need to pop up in the GUI. Whatever changes, if any, can't break GUI message popups. Logs are used by integrators and hackers and developers, and occasionally by bug reporters. It's one of my primary debugging aids, that's the only reason i care about this. I can get by ok because i've used it a lot and monkeyed with it a bunch to make it do what i want, but it could be simpler. -- Sebastian Kuzminsky ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Everyone hates slow websites.
