Re: Partition Manager Updates...
Mikhail,
I beg to differ with Antoine in one area,
his "...personal..." taste
since so many people use RPM, his views are shared by many!
Sometimes, make that frequently, simple is better!
Copy a partition, boot time availability, instantly hide a partition,
instantly write a MBR after somebody ( M$) spat on it, see what's really there.
are great features of RPM.
There are a few tiny(sure!) changes I'd like to see and I'd like to see the code
to see how hard, big a deal they would be.
Like ditch the top and bottom borders and add 2 more lines to the display.
(I always have lots of paritions.)
Change copy complete(and a couple of other GOOD things) color from RED to blue
or violet.
I would appreciate it if you would comment on my version of the documentation:
http://real-world-systems.com/docs/Part240+44.html
(Is your address even correct?)
Thanks and welcome back!
