Right. If the addressing of wiki in it could be relative pathing you'd be able to do a nice install as a package. FYI, there are aspects of TD that, as far as I can see, none of us have explored yet. For instance restyling the menus. IMO it has unexplored potential for desktops. The node versions, and twexe open the server in a Window and the wiki in a > browser.

Dream on :). IF. You prob right for Windows but what about smart phones? Nirvana is elusive. Most gurus say its not easy. Maybe its because they have a vested interest in that, but also looks truish.

Right? You'd need to change WINDOWS registry to change that behavior? Then you'd need the app present for it.
