I have been wondering whether the Outlook autorun feature could conveniently be used to assist Windows users who would like to use FlightGear. They sign up for the mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] as usual and their start of subscription mail message has a PIF attachment that autoinstalls FlightGear. Thereafter, whenever we have a version upgrade, the announcement is copied to that mailing list ... together with a PIF autorun attachment that will apply the upgrade without user intervention.
Convenient, no ? From: "Norman Vine" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > May we please put this thread to rest and allow FGFS > to return to "soaring above petty OS bigotry" Seconded. FWIW, the discussion is not about OS bigotry. Anybody can run Outlook (with WINE) on Linux and run most Linux mail readers on Windows. With the former, a default Outlook will behave just as badly on Linux, and, with the latter, most casual users will have trouble with attachments. _______________________________________________ Flightgear-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel
