Unless litestep has considerably improved in ease of use and installation (and blackbox too), I vote against including these packages. Their usefulness to most windows users is marginal at best. Instead I recommend packages that are not only useful, but illustrate an open source equivalent to a package that one ordinarily would have to pay for (or pirate). <humor>As for emacs, well obviously I'd oppose that one on the basis of religion alone. If our target audience wanted a new operating system, we'd just give them a knoppix CD.</humor> Michael > > Ryan > > ===== > ---- > Ryan Bowman > > The door at the end of the tunnel is far too small... > - Closing In 2.0 - Don't Be Afraid - insoc.org > ---- > > __________________________________________________ > Do You Yahoo!? > Tired of spam?
