| System Tools 6.0 comes with three "Minimal System" Installer scripts. | I feel a lot more comfortable using these than hacking with ResEdit. | You still have to remove Chooser, Control Panel, etc. if you want a | truly minimal System, but Apple has done most of the work for you. Can someone say, in detail, what the differences are between the "Standard System" (as generated by Apple's Installer) and the "Minimal System"? I do not feel particularly comfortable allowing undocumented Installer scripts to hack up my system resources. I would feel a lot better about it if Apple provided a detailed specification of what their Installer scripts do, and why its being done. P.S. Someone should start a company called "Look and Feel Software, Inc." and register "Look and Feel" as their trademark. -- uucp: ...!seismo!cmucspt!me.ri.cmu.edu!dtw arpa: dtw@cs.cmu.edu
