Otherwise we are going to have to write some sort of protocol document that everyone writing scripts for libh will have to follow to prevent menu bar confusion. I haven't looked at the scripts much be I think we will have to restructure it a little, and create what I call subtasks. For instance the disksetup code creates a dialog box, but I think people might want to go back and change things after they start adding packages and stuff. > BTW: do you have the Qt menubar bug described in BUGS on the cleanup branch?
