Don't know if it was intentional or not but I must say I like it. I actually
would like to see that as user selectable - see them all alpha but also see
them by installed and not installed. I had submitted a change that expanded on
the idea of the full list and partial list view that included 2 additional
views for Unchanged (all keeps) and Not Installed (all skips) but I don't know
if Robert ever did anything with it. In lieu of those changes I like this but
I also like the option of seeing the full list by name too.
I wonder if we could make the list sortable by column. (Ie clicking on the
column).
On a side note - Max - did you have to make any changes to get it too compile -
for some reason - my compile is now broken and I am not sure if it is the gcc3
install or the mingw changes. Do you have any ideas?
