me it comes down to what INX intends to be. I agree that customisations
should be kept conservative; INX overall is about learning the console,
to me this means learning about them as they are found by default.
Since I believe that if I learnt "foo", I should know how to use "foo"
in any environment, not just within "INX". <br>
<br>
Of course, this begs the question whether INX is (also?) has goals of
becoming a "complete OS solution" in its own right. If so, what I said
above doens't matter so much, since they should be "within INX"
anyways. Hope this make sense. <br><br></div><div class="gmail_quote"><div class="Ih2E3d">On Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 10:45 AM, Peter Garrett <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:inx-one@optusnet.com.au" target="_blank">inx-one@optusnet.com.au</a>></span> wrote:<br>
