This will of course have problems if someone manually installs files, but it's at least a step. I generally agree that moving all config data to a separate directory would be good. IIRC this was general consensus anyway. - Dominik Received on 2007-08-25 Page template was last modified "Tue Sep 7 00:00:02 2021" The Rockbox Crew -- Privacy Policy |
