- I'm not attempting to suggest short term changes, but wanted to ask you if
- it might be possible to implement some Installer support for an Un-Installer
- in the future (food for thought).
-
- Specifically, I've been thinking this could be support if the install logs
- were more thorough, saved to a standard path ("s:Install_Logs/" ?) and
- could be controlled by an "Installer" tool type. Then the user could set
- the tooltype and from there on logs would be saved by default and an
- UnInstaller could be run on the logs to remove the chosen app. The
- UnInstaller could be placed in the "Prefs" directory and even made to manage
- app locations/configurations based on the log files.
-
- Am I in left field [usually...:-)] or do you think such a thing could be
- implemented in a future version?
-
- Thanks for your time,
-
- Paul
