Re: PATCH:


Hi,

Good point..its been years since I stated a server+client with a script like
that :)

An easily addable option is to just suppress/redirect MessageBoxes (i.e. no
popups demanding OK to be clicked).
Or just keep MessageBoxes for deadly failures..not duplicate servers.

Errors would then just go the log file (or stdout/stderr when the log isn?t
up), which is the first place to look anyway when nothing happens.
(there can still be many another silent deadly incident for server novices
and/or fresh installations, judging by the maillist).

Also if you had another Windows server running not (XWin or Xming), e.g.
Xnest, things could be fun.

Donno really.. just seems a shame to have to mung the code.

Thanks
Colin
