Indeed :)

Not at all :( I redid some things on my box this morning, and restarted 
w/ a clean home directory...so I had no ~/.e/e/ at all. After getting E 
installed, I ran it, but was never shown the Wizard module. Now, having 
said that, I think I know where/why this happened...basically, in my 
.xinitrc I run 'enlightenment_start -profile standard'. (I do this due 
to testing of illume, etc, etc). I am wondering if, by specifying 
'-profile standard' this caused wizard module not to run ??
