And we could even write Application Bundles like MacOS X and include dependent libraries inside one dir. For the user, the whole directory would be an executable. All we need is a .directory in there. Although we have klik packages as well (which are loop-mounted images). Now, I'm not sure how additions to the spec work. I suggest you start by modifying the text to encompass what you want, then send the list the patch. It would probably help if you had at least one implementation working. >A related KDE Bug report I filed: >https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=124711 I remember. Personally, I would like to see that kind of addition out of the spec. Advanced conditionals should be done with scripting or plugins. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago (AT) macieira.info - thiago (AT) kde.org thiago.macieira (AT) trolltech.com Trolltech AS GPG: 0x6EF45358 | Sandakerveien 116, E067 918B B660 DBD1 105C | NO-0402 966C 33F5 F005 6EF4 5358 | Oslo, Norway
