Date: Sun, 10 Jun 2007 12:46:09 +0200 Hello Dominik yes, the Manual tab is not very interesting to blind users. I really like the interface and hope that click and go installation of Rockbox will make it more user friendly to the public. By what compiler was rbutil.exe created, if I could view the source code and do a compilation myself, I am willing to put time and effort in helping the project forward.
