Otherwise, hmmm. actually - the code is not at a stage where it almost never wipes config - just extends - so e_ipc's usefulness is becoming dubious. for code that makes up 5% of e17's code in 1 lump - thats a lot of code that has dubious use value when the same features are available via the gui. the gui should also prevent users shooting themselves in the foot - ipc doesn't. i woudln't remove it entirely, but i'd heavily trip it down to maybe issuing restarts, exit, logout etc. requests - feeding in actions from a script, and maybe later querying for data that might be useful from management scripts. > Restarting on the one time you change your language is not too bad I > guess... yeah - we can live with it. :) -- ------------- Codito, ergo sum - "I code, therefore I am" -------------- The Rasterman (Carsten Haitzler) [EMAIL PROTECTED] 裸好多 Tokyo, Japan (東京 日本) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
