Posted January 26, 201510 yr first of all thank you for your great work!!!i`ve found a small misstype http://i.imgur.com/gyDoerG.jpgRequest:i Would like you to ask to add in install.ini a parameter to disable showing the restart dialog with count dawn. A lot of people are frightening of this window )))))
January 26, 201510 yr Regarding the "mistype", (which you misspelled above, by the way ), of the word 'whilst', it's actually fine. From http://www.grammar-monster.com/easily_confused/while_whilst.htm: Most Americans find whilst quaint, old-fashioned, or literary. Most Brits, on the other hand, will swap happily between while and whilst, although some Brits also find whilst a little outdated.Some grammarians engaged in the while-whilst debate claim that, in the meaning during the time that or at the same time as, whilst should be used for a short period of time, and while should be used for a longer period of time.So since Lego is a Brit, and he is talking about a relatively short period of time, then his use of 'whilst' is perfectly correct, even if an American woulf most likely use 'while'.Cheers and Regards
January 26, 201510 yr Author bphlpt :D :D sorry for a misspelling above. And for my stupidness)))but the thing about countdown... it is better to make it configurable in install.ini
January 26, 201510 yr Out of curiosity, what is "frightening" about a "restart dialog with count dawn" window? And what would you suggest in its place? Surely you are not suggesting a restart without warning the user? Cheers and Regards
January 29, 201510 yr Author Countdown is even more frightening for lammer users then error. I suggest to have a trigger in install.ini, which allows to make a restart without warning. Or with warning but without countdown and cancel button. I understand that it sounds like a joke, but i have a great experience of making mass products
February 28, 201510 yr I've added a 'COUNTDOWN=TRUE' option in the install.ini file and changed some of the countdown dialogs a bit.
