Changing Install scripts from bash to something else
Just a thought, why not change the install scripts such as install flash etc to something like TCL/TK so you can have a more advanced setup? Dont get me wrong i like Xdialog/dialog, nice and simple, but at least using TCL/TK you could make the installers look more like a windows installer making it easier for windows users i guess? Remember its just a thought
.
Im learning TCL/TK by the way just for this purpose to do a test run. All comments welcome

Xdialog might not look all that professional, but it has the advantages of being easy to write and since Knoppix's configuration scripts are written in Xdialog, they can be used with a gui or in a text only environment. The latter benefit is one that I have come to appreciate after spending a lot of time with Knoppix.

Hm, you have seen the new installer ?
It has everything you need for Windows-users ...
But it is still dialog/Xdialog.
There is another advantage for dialog: Blind.
Yes, blind people can only use the text-interface on their braille-display.
